Penta 18″ Square High/Low Electronic Ignition System - 18FSSEI-SQ-HI/LO-120VAC

Enhance your fire pit experience with our Penta 18″ Square High/Low Electronic Ignition System.

1. Start Up: This is done by use of a wall switch or remote control. When the ON command is received, the system completes initial safety checks then starts flow of pilot gas. After 5 seconds the hot surface igniter glows igniting pilot flame. When the system confirms pilot flame present, the main burner gas will flow ignited by the pilot flame. 
2. Operation: While enjoying the ambiance of your fire pit, the system is at work monitoring flame status, internal temperatures / voltages and other safety parameters. If flame loss does occur, the system will turn off all gas flow, and then restart by automatically commencing Start sequence.
3. Shut Down: To turn OFF the fire pit simply use wall switch, remote control or whole house system.
