Catalytic Pad
The heater has a high efficiency as
long as the catalytic material is intact.
If partially or completely blocked,
the catalytic process does not work.
It usually can be noticed by reduced
heat, propane (LP) gas odor, difficulty
in lighting, or inability of the heater to
light partially or completely.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to
operate the heater with a damaged or
deteriorated catalytic pad.
After several years of use, even
under good operating conditions,
some catalytic pads may be rendered
inoperable because trace contaminants
almost always are present in the gas
and in the air. If lowered heat output is
noticed, it is possibly time to have the
catalytic pad replaced.
Catalytic pad deterioration can cause
lowered heat output and release of
unburned or partially burned gas.
It is recommended that the catalytic
burner assembly be replaced every 7
years, or sooner if abnormal operation
of the pad is noticed.
Follow the steps for Replacing Burner
Assembly to replace the catalytic pad.
Replacing Feet
Refer to Figure 4 in the Installation
section on page 6 to replace the feet.
OFFSEASON
• If the heater is to left "OFF" for a
considerable period of time, the
propane (LP) gas supply to the heater
should be turned off as close to the
gas source as possible. In the case
of portable use, the gas should be
turned off at the propane (LP) gas
supply cylinder.
• The heater must be kept covered with
the supplied dust shield when heater is
not in use.
IMPORTANT: Failure to use dust shield
when heater is not in use will void the
warranty.

Mr. Heater | Catalytic Heater
• Operation of the heater should be
checked by a qualified propane (LP)
gas service technician when the
heater has been out of service for
a considerable period (intermittent
operation) and in any event, at least
once a year.
• If the heater is put into storage, make
sure to disconnect the propane (LP)
gas cylinder.
• When the LP-gas cylinder is not
disconnected from the heater, the
heater and cylinder must be located
outdoors, in a well-ventilated space,
out of the reach of children, and must
not be stored in a building, garage, or
any other enclosed area.
• Storage of the heater indoors is
permissible only if the cylinder is
disconnected and removed from
the heater. Cylinders must be stored
outdoors, in a well-ventilated space,
out of the reach of children, and must
not be stored in a building, garage, or
any other enclosed area.
WARNING: Never attempt to use
a catalytic pad with a damaged or
perforated surface.
