CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Visually checking portions of the hose assembly located within the confines of the heater post. Inspect
the entire hose assembly at least annually, disassembling the reflector and burner. Inspect the hose
assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts, or wear. Suspected areas should be leak tested.
Then assembling the reflector and burner again following with step 7 and 11.
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.
Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage heater and
render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may
help clear away smaller particles.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean dome and burner screen with warm soapy water if
any carbon deposits develop.
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.
