persons and be in accordance with the relevant codes of practice.

your gas supplier and or product supplier. Regularly check the gas hose and if
necessary, replace the gas hose. Prior to use, check for damage parts such as
hoses, regulator, pilot or burner. Never replace or substitute the regulator with
any regulator other than the factory suggested replacement.
CHECK YOUR FlAME
The flame pattern at the emitter screen
should be visually checked whenever
heater is operated. Normally the burner
flame is blue, but a little yellow flame is
acceptable. If flames extend beyond the
emitter grid or there are black spots that have accumulated on the emitter
grid or reflector, immediately turn off the patio heater. The heater should
not be operated again until it has been serviced and repaired by a qualified
gas technician.
ClEANING YOUR HEATER
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater, make sure you
perform the following maintenance activities a on regular basis:
1. Keep exterior surfaces clean
• Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive
cleaning agents.
• While washing your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and
pilot assembly dry at all times. If the gas control is exposed to water in any
way, do not try to use it. It must be replaced.
2. Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air
passageways clean. 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
3. Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition
can damage the 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.
4. Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean dome and emitter screen
with warm soapy water if any carbon deposits develop.
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.
