    Brivis Buffalo heater - start-up problem

    Hi guys,

    I have a Brivis Buffalo gas heater. When the thermostat is ON, the burner doesn't automatically lit up (even after few hours - the pilot is OK). So I have to press the fan switch (switch from Auto to Man.), and after few second the burner lits up (then I switch back the fan from Man. to Auto). Only after that the heater seems to work normally. Could anyone point out what is the problem?

    Thanks,

    How do the Buffalo let you know they're cold?

    The room thermostat is ON. I have checked that down at the heater too.

    Can't help you. Sorry. We don't have Buffalos in our area so I'm not familiar with their litting problems.
    If YOU want change, YOU have to first change.

    If you are waiting for the 'other guy' to change first, just remember, you're the 'other guy's' other guy. To continue to expect real change when you keep acting the same way as always, is folly. Won't happen. Real change will only happen when a majority of the people change the way they vote!
