Maintenance / Storage
Always disconnect the LP cylinder from the regulator
assembly and remove the LP cylinder from the heater
before putting the heater into storage. If for any reason the
heater is to be stored indoors, the heater MUST be
disconnected from the LP cylinder, and the cylinder stored
outdoors in a well- ventilated area, out of the reach of
children, and in accordance with the Standard for Storage
and Handling of Liquefied Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58 - latest
edition. The plastic valve plug or valve cover supplied
with the LP cylinder must be reinstalled on the valve to
protect the fitting from damage.
NOTE: Repair of this heater should be done by a quali-
fied service person.
It is recommended that you save all of the packaging
materials that came with your heater, and re-package the
heater using these materials for safe storage.
Debris, dust and dirt inside of the heater body can affect
the performance of your heater. This debris can impair the
heaters ability to draw air for ventilation and combustion.
Spiderwebs can also appear during periods of inactivity.
