Propane Water Heater Question....
New 2012 model 1206 - Was firing up all the appliances today checking to make sure they work properly and to get familiar with them. When I lit the water heater I notice the burner flame throw was sputtering (kinda of pop, pop, pop sounding) and after it warmed up the flame had a lot of yellow to it........more yellow than the blue. Now I know that when a gas orifice is adjusted properly there is supposed to be nothing but blue flame in the burn......I am assuming this holds true for propane as well........and the sputtering, is that normal? My first thoughts were that the orifice adjustment is off. Any suggestions?
