Q & A

Should there be a gas smell in the area? NO. Turn off the

gas supply immediately, Do not turn on any electrical devices.

Ventilate the area by opening vents, doors, or windows. Leave

the area until the gas smell is no longer present. Once

ventilated and the gas smell is gone, determine where the leak

is by using soapy water. Spray the soapy solution on the gas

connections and watch for bubbles. Bubbles will appear if the

connection(s) are leaking. Seal the leaks. If this does not

correct the problem, call the factory.

The power is connected but not working and no indicator

light is on. The "tip over" switch may be activated. Tilt the

unit to one side and listen for a clicking noise. The switch is

like a pendulum and will turn off the unit if it is not level.

The burners are not lighting but the unit is trying. If the

burners do not fire the first attempt, it will try again. After a 30

second pause the unit will attempt to re-fire the burner(s) for

15 seconds, This cycle will repeat until it fires or a maximum of

5 times. After 5 unsuccessful attempts, the module will lock

itself for a 20 minute pause. The LED light next to "Lock Out

(error)" will be illuminated. Verify that the spark is being

generated and the position of the sparking electrodes is close

to the burner to be lit.

One or more of the burners is not lighting? Make sure the

gas line is not kinked or twisted and the gas supply is

adequate. Do not operate if yellow or large flames are present.

If using propane, turn off the gas regulator for 30 seconds, and

then try again.

The CO2 level is not increasing to my desired PPM level. If

both burners are operating, check for air leakage in the grow

area and confirm that exhaust fans are not operating when the

CO2 is being produced.
