SECTION H:
LONG TERM STORAGE
At the close of each heating season, or when you do not plan to use your heater for an extended period, the
following procedures are recommended.
1.
As the end of the season approaches, calculate your kerosene purchases so that you can use up all the
kerosene you have on hand. When kerosene is stored for over six months, its quality may deteriorate.
The use of such kerosene will have an unfavorable effect on heater operation.
2.
If your heater needs any service or repair, now is the time to call your dealer and get it done before
storage. That way your heater will be ready for immediate use when the next heating season begins.
3.
If you plan to store your heater in place,
(a) Disconnect power supply.
(b) Close the main tank valve.
(c)
Remove all kerosene from the fuel sump and clean the fuel strainer.
(See page 13.)
(d) Wipe off any stains or dust on heater with a damp cloth, then wipe once
again using a dry cloth.
(e) Cover heater completely with a large plastic bag to protect from dust.
