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. Clean dome and burner screen with warm soapy water if any
carbon deposits develop.
• 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.
Storage
Between uses:
• Turn off control valve and cylinder valve.
• Disconnect the hose regulator from propane cylinder.
• Remove the battery from the igniter.
• 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.
Note: Wait until heater is cool before covering.
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.
• Remove the battery from the igniter.
• 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.
Note: wait until heater is cool before covering.
