MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
It is important that regular maintenance is carried
out on the heater to maintain efficient operation. All
maintenance should be carried out ONLY by authorized
service personnel.
Control compartment, burner and circulation air
passageways of the heater must be kept clean. Inspect
and clean at least every six months or more frequently
in adverse conditions.
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Always keep the appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and other flamable
vapors and liquids.
Do not clean heater with cleaners that are combustible
or corrosive.
REGULAR SERVICE REQUIREMENTS
1. AGA approved Gas Hose, located within the mounting
arm, must be checked at least once annually. The hose
must be replaced if there is any evidence of excessive
wear, or if the hose is damaged. The replacement hose
assembly must be AGA approved with 3/8”SAE flared
ends. To Check the Gas Hose, remove control housing
cover by removing 8 screws and slide cover outwards.
Alternatively, disassemble heater by reversing the
installation instructions as outlined in Installation section
of this handbook.
2.
VISUALLY CHECK BURNER FLAMES
. During heaters
function visually check that all burners are alight and
glowing hot. This can be done by observing the red glow
through the translucent face, or by peering down the
product combustion passageway. Note: A slight variation
in colour is to be expected.
1.
Clean burners:
Burners can be cleaned by directing
compressed air (max20PSI) at outlet ports. Avoid directing
air at gasket material between ceramic tile and burner cup.
2.
Clean manifold and injectors:
Undo gas hose from gas
valve outlet (heater should be switched off) and inject
compressed air (max20PSI) down the inlet fittings.
3.
Clean dust and foreign matter from inside of heater
housing:
Open up rear housing and clear dust using
compressed air (max20PSI) and a damp cloth.
4. Remove debris, spider and insect nests from, control
compartment, burner and circulation air passageways of
the heater with heavy-duty pipe cleaner or compressed
air to keep appliance clean and safe for use. Never clear
ports or other openings with toothpicks or other articles
that will break and block the ports.
5. In a salt-air environment, such as near an ocean, corrosion
occurs more quickly than normal. Check frequently for
corroded areas and repair them promptly.

components are constructed from stainless steel, and
high temperature coated black paint. For all exterior
black parts (excluding fascia trims), a brushed finish has
been used. This is not a coating and under prolonged
use, may slightly discolour from high temperatures
emitted by the heater. This is a normal occurrence and
does not affect the operation of the appliance.
NOTE: The appliance must be completly shutoff for a
period of 5 minutes before being relighted.
