Thermotron boat heater.

I have just bought a boat fitted with a Thermotron lpg heater made in kalmar Sweden. does anybody have one of these fitted? it will only run for seconds and cut out and the previous owner has no manual. Thanks in hopeful anticipation.

I have a remotron volvo flygmotor heater, I think your model is a similar breed, they will only work if the gas bottle is turned on and the wall mounted, central heating thermostat is set above the ambient temperature.
Let us know how you get on.

Sounds like the thermocouple flame failure device is Kaput to me

thanks James and Steve. Tried the gas this weekend and the thermostat, still no change, looks like it might be Steves suggestion, now where to get it checked. Jim
