8. Check heater immediately if any of the following conditions exist:
a. You smell gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of burner flames.
b. Heater does not reach proper temperature.
Note: At temperatures less than 40ºF, heat output will be reduced.
c. Heater’s glow is excessively uneven.
d. Burner makes popping noises during use.
Note: A “poof” sound is normal as the last of the LP gas is burned.
9. Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Keep dome and emitter clean at all times.
10. Do NOT clean heater with combustible or corrosive cleaners. Use warm, soapy water.
11. Do NOT paint engine, engine access panel or dome.
12. After a period of storage and/or non use, check for leaks, burner obstructions and
inspect for any abrasion, wear or cuts to the hose.
13. Check under the dome and engine area periodically for any obstructions such as
spiderwebs, bird nests, etc.
Before Each Use:
1. Keep the heater area clean and free from any combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
2. Do NOT obstruct the flow of the combustion of LP gas and the ventilation of air.
3. Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the LP gas tank area free and clear from debris.
4. Visually check the burner flames to make sure your heater is working properly.
5. See sections below for proper cleaning instructions.
6. Check for obstructions of airflow to the burners. Spiders, insects and webs can clog the
burner/venturi tube. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire.
Cleaning Surfaces
1. Wipe surfaces clean with mild dishwashing detergent or baking soda mixed with water.
2. For stubborn surfaces, use a citrus-based degreaser and a nylon scrubbing brush.
3. Rinse clean with water.
4. Allow to air dry.
Note: While cleaning your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly
dry at all times.
Do NOT submerge the control valve assembly. If the gas control is
submerged in water, do NOT use it. It must be replaced.
Maintenance
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater, make sure you perform the
following maintenance activities on a regular basis:
1. Keep exterior surfaces clean.
2. Perform routine maintenance.
3. Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air passageways
clean. Signs of possible blockage include:
• Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
• Heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
• Heater glow is excessively uneven.
• Heater makes popping noises.
Note: In a salt-air environment (such as near an ocean), corrosion occurs more quickly than
normal. Frequently check for corroded areas and repair them promptly.
TIP
: Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of your heater. Apply to
exterior surfaces from the pole down.
Do NOT apply to emitter screen or domes.
Storage and Transporting
1. Make sure control knob is in the “ OFF” position and LP gas tank valve is “CLOSED.”
2. Disconnect LP gas tank per “Disconnecting LP Gas Tank” section.
3. Clean all surfaces per “Cleaning Surfaces” section.
4. Cover the patio heater with a patio heater cover to help protect from the weather and
build up in air passages.
W
WARNING: Wait until heater is cool before covering.
5. Store heater upright in an area sheltered from direct contact with inclement weather (such
as rain, sleet, hail, snow, dust, debris and high winds).
6. Place the protective cap cover on the LP tank and store the tank outdoors in a well
ventilated area out of direct sunlight.
