THEORY OF
OPERATION
The Fuel System:  
The hose/regulator assembly attaches to the propane gas
supply. The propane gas moves through the solenoid valve and out the nozzle.
The Air System:
  The motor turns the fan. The fan pushes air into and around
the combustion chamber. This air is heated and provides a stream of clean, hot air.
The Ignition System:
  The direct spark ignitor (DSI) sends voltage to the
ignitor. The ignitor ignites the fuel and air mixture.
The Safety Control System:
  This system causes the heater to shut down if the
flame goes out.
