Storage & Maintenance
Always disconnect the LP cylinder from the regulator assembly and remove the LP cylinder from the heater before putting
the heater into storage. If, for any reason, the heater is to be stored indoors, the heater MUST be disconnected from the
LP cylinder, and the cylinder stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area, out of the reach of children, and in accordance with
the Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Gasses, ANSI/NFPA 58 and Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code, CSA B149.1- latest edition. The plastic valve plug or valve cover supplied with the LP cylinder must
be reinstalled on the valve to protect the fitting from damage.
Note: Repair of this heater should be done by a qualified service person.
It is recommended that you save all of the packaging materials that came with your heater, and re-package the heater
using these materials for safe storage.
Debris, dust and dirt inside of the heater body can affect the performance of your heater. This debris can impair the
heaters ability to draw air for ventilation and combustion. Spiderwebs can also appear during periods of inactivity.
Be sure to inspect the heater before each use to look for any such obstructions. Be sure to keep the air passage-ways,
burner and combustion areas clean. Wipe with a damp cloth or use a vacuum cleaner to clean these areas. It is
suggested that you perform a thorough cleaning at least once every 30 days of operation. You may need to clean the
heater more often if conditions are naturally dirty. Clean the heater, including special surfaces, with recommended clean-
ing agents, if necessary.
Clean the ceramic plaques using compressed air below 30 PSI to prevent damage to plaques.
A yellow tip of the pilot flame indicates that the burner area may be in need of cleaning.
DANGER
Never store an LP cylinder inside of a building or near any other gas or oil burning appliances.
DANGER
Always be sure that the heater has been allowed to cool for at least 30 minutes before attempting to store, service, or
perform maintenance.
