That's no good. That's an indication that there's not enough air or too much gas going in the combustion mixture. Blue flame with orange tip is ok, but not yellow. For complete combustion, you need10 cubic feet of air for every cubic feet of gas. The pressure at the manifold for natural gas is 3.5 w.c (inches of water column), and propane is (LP gas) is 11"w.c. This has to be checked with a manometer.

SOURCE: Kozy World propane wall heater

The ceramic "bricks" need to be heated evenly. Since 3 are good, I would have to assume the other two have a restriction. Maybe a spider in the orifices, If  you can access the "jet" where gas comes out, try using a paper clip or something similar to clear any blockage. If that wont do it, pull the burner, remove each orifice and clear. Good Luck

Testimonial: "Thank you very much for the info. There was some trash around the opening of the 2 jets. I cleaned them out with a tip cleaner and now it works fine."

SOURCE: I just bought a brand new Kozy World blue flame

The thermocouple is bad or not aligned properly. It is the metal bar in front of the pilot light. This bar senses the heat put off by the pilot light. If it does not get hot it will not allow the gas to flow. You either need to align it so that it is in front of the pilot light and receives enough heat to allow the gas valve to operate or possibly the thermocouple has gone bad and needs replacing.

It could also be that you are not waiting long enough. The thermocouple must sense the heat for at least one minute or more before it will let the gas valve turn on. Turn everything to off for at least five minutes. Re-light the pilot light and let it burn for at least one minute and then try turning the knob to on.

I have three Kozy World wall heaters. Two work just fine - the bricks turn red after the heater has been on for a while. The third one always burns blue and the flames 'lick' the top of the inside of the...

Yes, it sounds like the third heater has a Control Valve problem. It's allowing more gas into the system than what it's supposed too. Have you tried turning the flames down to a lower setting? If so, did it lower the flame height? How old is this heater and is cleaned and serviced at least annually? Are you using Natural Gas or Propane?

Please get back to me with the answers to the above questions and I may can help you.

Thanks,
Rich

Pilot flame pops and gets llonger then shorter

From what you have described, it sounds like a pressure problem with the gas. Contact Kozy World (you can find their home page on line) and speak with their Tech Service Dept. Also, the gas in the tank pay be very low.
