CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Turn off heater and let cool before servicing.
CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burner, and circulating air passageways of heater clean. Inspect these areas of
heater before each use. Have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service technician. Heater may need more frequent
cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, pet hair, etc.
ODS/PILOT AND BURNER
Use a vacuum cleaner or pressurized air.
CLEANING BURNER PILOT AIR INLET HOLE
We recommend that you clean the unit every 2,500 hours of operation or every three months. We also recommend that
you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend using
compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your local computer store, hardware store, or home center may carry
compressed air in a can. You can use a vacuum cleaner in the blow position. If using compressed air in a can, please
follow the directions on the can. If you don't follow directions on the can, you could damage the pilot assembly.
1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool for
at least thirty minutes.
2. Inspect burner and pilot for dust and dirt.
3. Blow air though the ports/slots and holes in the burner.
Also clean the pilot assembly. A yellow tip on the pilot flame
indicates dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. There is a small pilot
air inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes
out of the pilot assembly (see Figure 23). With the unit off, lightly
blow air through the air inlet hole. You may blow through a
drinking straw if compressed air is not available.
