CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your
Heater, make sure you perform the following
maintenance on a regular basis:
1. Keep exterior surfaces clean. Use warm soapy water
for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents. While cleaning
your heater, 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. Keep the heater area free and clean from combustible materials, gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids. Visually check burner flames.
Visually check the hose assembly inside the panels and check for cracks or worn
sections.
1) Unscrew gas hose and regulator hose with 3/4'' inch open end wrench and
adjustable wrench.
2) Check if there are cracks or worn sections on hose. If yes, contact your gas
supplier to replace the hose.
3) At least once a year, the unit should be inspected for the presence of spiders,
spider webs or other insects.
Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air
passageways clean. Signs of possible blockage include:
1. Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
2. Heater does not reach the desired temperature
3. Heater glow is excessively uneven.
4. Heater makes uneven popping noise.
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.
