Specifications
• You must provide propane gas and propane
cylinder. Use a standard 20 lb. propane cylinder only.
• Use this heater only with a propane vapor
withdrawal supply system. See Chapter 5 of the
Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied
Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA58. Your local library or
fire department should have this book.
• The minimum permissible gas supply pressure of 10
W.C. is required for purpose of input adjustment.
• The minimum hourly of 17000 Btu is required input
rating for a heater for automatic operation at
ratings less than full input rating.
• The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied
with the appliance must be used.
• The installation must conform with local codes, or in
the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 .
• A dented, rusted or damaged propane cylinder
may be hazardous and should be checked by your
cylinder supplier. Never use a propane cylinder with
a damaged valve connection.
• The propane cylinder must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the specifications
for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT}.
• Never connect an unregulated propane cylinder
to the heater.
• Attach regulator to cylinder.
• Complete attachment.

LEAK CHECK
• Make 2-3 oz. of leak check solution
(one part liquid dish-washing
detergent and three parts water).
• Apply several drops of solution
where hose attaches to regulator.
• Apply several drops of solution
where regulator connects to
Cylinder.
• Make sure all Patio Heater & Light
valves are OFF.
• Turn Cylinder Valve ON.
• If bubbles appear at any connection, there is a
leak.
• Turn Cylinder Valve OFF.
• If leak is at Hose/Regulator connection: tighten
connection and perform another leak test.
• If leak is at Regulator/Cylinder Valve connection:
disconnect, reconnect, and perform another
leak check. If you continue to see bubbles after
several attempts, cylinder valve is defective and
should be returned to cylinder’s place of purchase.
If NO bubbles appear at any connection, the
connections are secure.
• Turn Cylinder Valve OFF.
NOTE: Whenever gas connections are loosened or
removed, you must perform a complete leak test.
• Complete installation.
WARNING:
