•The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or
Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.
• Minimum clearance to the combustible materials is 3' 7" (1.1 m).
• Perform a leak test with a soapy solution:
(a) To check gas connections.
(b) After connecting a new cylinder.
(c) Upon re-assembly after disassembly.
Please refer to the leak test procedure indicated in this instruction manual on page 17. Replace the
hose assembly prior to the appliance being put into operation if there is evidence of excessive
abrasion or wear, or if the hose is damaged. The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with
the appliance must be used. The replacement hose assembly/regulator must be that specified by the
manufacturer.
•If you don’t feel the heater is on a stable surface, use a ground screw to fix the base of the heater
on the surface where the heater is installed. Fix the base on an incline no wider than 15 °.
•Place the propane hose with regulator assembly out of pathways where people may trip over it or
in areas where the hose will not be subjected to accidental damage.
•Materials or items when stored under the heater will be subjected to intense heat and could be
seriously damaged.
•Clothing or other flammable materials should not be hung on the heater, or placed on, under or near
the heater.

•Keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapours and liquids.
•Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris. Use this appliance
in a well-ventilated space only. Do not use it in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
Use this appliance in outdoor areas described below:
(a) With walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover.
(b) Within a partial enclosure that includes overhead cover and no more than two walls. These walls
may be parallel, or at right angles to each other.
(c) Within a partial enclosure that includes overhead cover and no more than two walls. The following
shall apply:

Checking for Leaks
Your patio heater has been checked at all factory connections for
leakage. To check the connection at the gas hose/regulator/cylinder:
a.
Make leakage solution by mixing 1 part liquid dish soap and 3 parts
water.
b.
Spoon or brush several drops (or use squirt bottle) of the solution
onto the gas hose/regulator and regulator/cylinder and hose
connection.
c.
Turn on gas cylinder valve. Inspect the connections and look for
bubbles.
d. If no bubbles appear, the connection is safe.
e. If bubbles appear, there is leakage. Loosen and re-tighten this
connection. If it still leaks, please call customer service at: 1-877-483-
6759 (toll free).
1.
Turn the LP gas tank valve OFF. Push the control knob in, turn OFF,
and wait 5 minutes for any gas to clear.
2.
Turn the LP gas tank valve ON. Push control knob in and slowly
rotate to “HIGH” position. This will activate the built-in igniter and
light the burner. If necessary, keep depressing and rotating knob
until burner lights. If the burner fails to remain lit or becomes
extinguished, repeat step 2 after 5 minutes of complete shutoff
period before relighting.
3.
Once burner is lit, hold control knob in for at least 30 seconds and
release.
4.
Once burner is lit, rotate knob to desired heating level.
For complete shutdown:
1.
Please turn the knob to “HIGH” position first, then push and turn to
“Off” position for complete shut off.
2.
Turn the LP gas tank valve OFF before remove the LP gas tank.
Lighting Instructions Safty Check
Note:
Visually check the burner flame against the illustrations below. Flame should be blue with slight
yellow tips.
You should see a smaller flame in LOW position than seen on HIGH. Perform flame check prior to each
use. If only low flame is seen, refer to “Burner flame is low” in “TROUBLESHOOTING” on page 20.
17

In any case of failure of normal ignition, please use the lighter
gun (sold separately) to reach the burner for ignition through
the hole on the bottom of burner diffuser.
WARNING
FOR YOUR SATETY:
If at any time you are unable to light burner and smell gas, wait
5 minutes to allow gas to dissipate before attempting to light
heater.
WARNING
FOR YOUR SATETY:
DO NOT touch or move heater for at least 45 minutes after use.
Allow emitter and dome to cool before touching.
CAUTION:
Avoid inhaling fumes emitted from the heater’s first use. Smoke
and odour from the burning of oils used in manufacturing will
appear. Both smoke and odour will dissipate after
approximately 30 minutes. The heater should NOT produce thick black smoke.
y
Abrasive cleaners will damage this product.
y
Never use oven cleaner to clean any part of heater.
y
Do not clean any heater part in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the
finish.
y
More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that control
compartment, burners and circulating air passageways of the heater be kept clean.
y
Spiders and insects can create a dangerous condition that may damage heater or make it
unsafe. Keep burner area clean of all spiders, webs or insects. Clean burner holes by
using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear away smaller particles.
y
Inspect heater before each use.
y
Have heater inspected annually and repairs should be made by a qualified service person.
y
Check heater immediately if any of the following conditions exist:
a. The smell of gas in conjunction with extreme yellow tipping of burner flames.
b. Heater does not reach proper temperature.
c. Heater’s glow is excessively uneven.
d. Burner makes popping noises during use.
Note
: A slight pop is normal when burner is extinguished.
y
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Keep dome and emitter clean at all times.
y
Do not clean heater with combustible or corrosive cleaners. Use warm, soapy water.
y
This heater should be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis.
y
After a period of storage and/or no use, check for leaks, burner obstructions and inspect
for any abrasion, wear or cuts to the hose.

Care and Maintenance

WarrantyWarranty
Cleaning
y
Wipe surfaces clean with mild dish detergent or baking soda.
y
For stubborn surfaces use a citrus-based degreaser and a nylon scrubbing brush.
y
Rinse clean with water.
Note
: While cleaning the unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly dry at
all times. Do not submerge the control valve assembly. If the gas control is submerged in water, do
NOT use it. It must be replaced.
TIP:
Use high-quality automobile wax to help maintain the appearance of the heater. Apply to exterior
surfaces from the pole down. Do not apply to emitter screen or domes.
Maintenance
y
Keep exterior surfaces clean.
y
Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner and circulating air passageways clean.
Signs of possible blockage include:
Gas odour with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
Heater does NOT reach the desired temperature.
Heater glow is excessively uneven.
Heater makes popping noises.
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.
Storage
Between uses or during periods of extended inactivity:
y
Turn control knob to "OFF".
y
Disconnect LP cylinder and move to a secure, well-protected location outdoors.
y
Store heater upright in an area sheltered from direct contact with inclement weather (such as rain,
sleet, hail, snow, dust and debris).
Note:
Never leave LP gas tank exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
y
If desired, use cover (not included) to protect the heater and help prevent buildup in air passages.
CAUTION
: Wait until heater is cool before covering.
