Maintenance Instructions
BEFORE EACH USE:
1. Ensure the area surrounding the heater is free
and clear from combustible materials, gaso-
line, and other
fl ammable vapors and liquids.
2. Inspect the gas hose. Replace the gas hose
immediately if nicks or cuts are found.
3. For heaters with a push button igniter, make
sure the wire from the igniter to the electrode
is in good condition, without any nicks or cuts.
Replace the electrode (comes with wire) if
defects are found.
4. Check for gas leaks using approved leak
detectors.
5. Review all heater markings (i.e. warnings,
start-up, shut-down, etc.) at the time of mainte-
nance for legibility. Make sure none are cut,
torn, or otherwise damaged. Any damaged
markings must be replaced immediately by
contacting the L.B. White Co., Inc. Dataplates,
start-up and shut-down instructions and warn-
ings are available at no cost.
6. Ensure the proper regulator is matched to
the heater being used. Regulators are set to
different pressures, depending on the design
requirements of the heater. Mis-matching of
the regualtor to the improper heater can result
in over or under
fi ring of the heater, resulting
in soot, high levels of carbon monoxide, or
damage to the heater and surrounding area. If
in doubt, contact L.B. White Co.
7. Inspect the regulator to make sure the regula-
tor vent is not blocked. Debris, insects, insect
nests, tar, snow, or ice on a regulator can
block vents and cause excess pressure at the
heater.
ANNUALLY:
1. Regulators can wear out and function improp-
erly. Have your gas supplier check the date
codes on all regulators installed and check
delivery pressures to the appliance to make sure
that the regulator is reliable.
