Care and Cleaning
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater, make sure you perform the following maintenance
activities on a regular basis:
 Whenever conduct hose/regulator inspection, pull out the door using handle on the door panel to gain access.
 Keep exterior surface dean.
 Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.
 While washing your unit be sure to keep the area around the burner dry at all times. If the gas control is exposed to
water, do NOT try to use it. It must be replaced.
 Keep the appliance area free and clean from combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
 At least once a year, the unit should be inspected for the presence of spiders, spider webs or other insects.
 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.
Heat glow is excessively uneven.
Heat makes popping noises.
 Spider 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 reflector, thermocouple, and emitter screen with a dry cloth if any
carbon deposits develop.
 The burner is made from metal, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment can cause surface corrosion to occur.
This can be removed with a brass wire brush. Inspect the burner at least annually for cracks, insect nests, excessive
corrosion or any other damage. If the burner is damaged, it must be replaced with a burner specified by the
manufacturer before the appliance is put into operation.
