CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Signs of possible blockage include:
Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
Heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
Heater glow is excessively uneven.
Heater makes popping noises.
Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage heater and
render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may
help clear away smaller particles.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Disassemble the reflector, unscrew the reflector spacer,
take off the flame screen, take down all four sides of protective guards. Then take the glass tube and
flame screen from the heater and wash and clean. After that, reassemble the glass tube and the rest of
the parts.
Battery check: Please ensure the battery is installed before use. Take out the battery if the unit will not
be used for a long time.
Note: In a salt-air environment (such as near an ocean), corrosion occurs more quickly than normal.
Frequently check for corroded areas and repair them promptly.
TIP:
Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of your heater. Apply to exterior
surfaces from the pole down. Do not apply to emitter screen or domes.
Storage

Turn off control valve and cylinder valve.
Disconnect the hose regulator from propane cylinder.

sleet, hail, snow, dust and debris).
If desired, cover heater to protect exterior surfaces and to help prevent build-up in air passages.

During periods of extended inactivity or when transporting:
Turn off control valve and cylinder valve.
Disconnect the hose regulator and move the cylinder to a secure, well ventilated outdoor location.
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from direct contact with inclement weather (such as rain,
sleet, hail, snow, dust and debris).
If desired, cover heater to protect exterior surfaces and to help prevent build-up in air passages.
Never leave LP cylinder exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
