Maintenance Tips

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the heater with a soft cloth and a mild detergent to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the surface.

• Inspect the Vents: Ensure the venting system is free from obstructions like dirt, debris, or bird nests, which can cause blockages and impact airflow. Clean vents regularly to maintain optimal performance.

• Annual Professional Inspection: Have the unit inspected by a licensed professional at least once a year to ensure the gas burner, thermocouple, and safety shut-off valves are functioning properly.

• Check for Carbon Build-Up: Regularly inspect the burner and combustion chamber for carbon build-up, which can impede efficiency and safety. If you notice excessive soot or carbon, have it cleaned by a professional.

• Seasonal Preparation: Before using the heater for the season, check all connections, vents, and the blower system to ensure everything is in good working order.
