Periodically inspect these holes forany blockage and clean if needed. Blockedair holes will create soot.MAIN BURNERPeriodically inspect all burner flame holeswith the heater running. All slotted burnerflame holes should be open with yellowflame present. All round burner flame holesshould be open with a small blue flamepresent. Some burner flame holes may be-come blocked by debris or rust, with no flamepresent.
