Maintenance
For best performance, the certain minimal maintenance procedures should be performed before each
heating season:
•
A service agency qualified to adjust and repair infrared heaters should be engaged for service
other than routine maintenance.
•
Before performing any services or maintenance, shut off gas and electrical supply to heater.
•
Keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapours and liquids.
•
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•
Check condition of burner. Remove any foreign objects or debris from burner.
•
Inspect the igniter. Replace igniter if there is excessive wear or erosion, breakage or other
defects.
•
The reflector sections may be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth.
•
Annually verify hose gas supply in heater post and all connections for gas leaks.
