Cleaning Instructions

This heater contains electrical and mechanical components in the gas management, safety and airflow systems.
Such components may become inoperative or fail due to dust, dirt, wear, aging, or the corrosive atmosphere of an
animal confinement building.
Periodic cleaning and inspection as well as proper maintenance are essential to avoid serious injury or property
damage.
1. Before cleaning, shut off all gas supply valves and
disconnect electrical supply.
2. The heater should have dirt or dust removed
periodically:
a. After each flock or between building re-population,
give the heater a general cleaning using
compressed air or a soft brush on its interior and
exterior. At this time, dust off the motor case to
prevent the motor from over-heating and shutting
the heater down.
