OUTDOOR PATIO HEATER
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for choosing a Goldair Appliance. This Goldair Patio Heater has been
designed and manufactured to a high standard of engineering and with proper use
and care, as described in this leaflet, will give you years of useful service. Please
read these instructions carefully.
READ ME FIRST
Take extra care when unpacking and assembling your Goldair Patio Heater. Some edges
may be sharp from the manufacturing process and may result in cuts if not assembled
with care.
Before attempting to assemble your Goldair appliance, ensure all parts are correct and
contained within the box as per the components list.
Goldair suggests laying out all components on a large flat surface and removing any
plastic or protective material before assembling your patio heater.
Do not dispose of packaging until completely satisfied with assembly of your patio heater

CLEANING AND CARE OF YOUR PATIO HEATER
Ongoing Maintenance
Your Patio Heater requires regular maintenance (interior and exterior) to ensure it remains in proper working
order and to maintain its appearance.
Exterior:
Stainless Steel Patio Heaters
Overtime dirt and salt may build up on your heater. To clean, wash with warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy
water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry. Apply a stainless steel BBQ protector to stainless steel
surfaces. This will apply a protective coating on the exterior of the heater and assist in repelling the elements.
Stainless steel will rust if you do not look after it properly
From time to time spotting may occur on the exterior of your patio Heater. This is normal and is due to moisture
and/or other elements building up (it is highly recommended that all outdoor products are stored under an eve
with a cover to protect against the harsh New Zealand elements . To ensure that spotting and discoloration
does not become worse and more visible resulting in permanent damage to your heater, it should be cleaned
and removed straight away. This is best done with a stainless steel cleaner/cutback solution, or if the spotting is
larger and harder to remove, use a stainless steel/metal polish and then a cleaner/solution. Always use a soft
cloth to clean your patio heater.
Never use abrasive heavy duty sponges or scouring pads on the exterior of your patio heater, these products
will begin to remove the stainless steel finish resulting in an uneven surface and faster rusting in the future.
Powder Coated Patio Heaters
Overtime dirt and salt may build up on your heater. To clean, wash with warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy
water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry. Once dry, use a BBQ exterior cleaner, this will apply a
protective coating on the exterior of the patio heater and assist in repelling the elements. Always you use a soft
cloth to clean your patio heater.
Never use abrasive heavy duty sponges or scouring pads on the exterior of your patio heaters, these products
will begin to remove the powder coated finish resulting in an uneven surface and may result in rusting in the
future.
Spider and insect webs –Sometimes spiders and other insects climb into the tubes, gas lines and other areas
of the patio heaters. The insects can spin webs, build nests and lay eggs. The webs or nests can be very small,
but they are very strong and can block the flow of gas. To avoid this occurring, clean burners prior to use, after
storing, at the beginning of your BBQ season or after a period of one month without use. Guards are on the air
intakes in an effort to reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it. An obstruction can result in a “flashback” (a
fire in the burner tubes). The burner may still light, but the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the burners.
Note: Complications arising from spider and insect webs built up inside gas lines are expressly excluded from
warranty.

USE OUTDOORS ONLY
This heater shall only be used in an above ground open-air situation with natural ventilation, without stagnant areas,
where gas leakage and products of combustion are rapidly dispersed by wind and natural convection.
Any outdoor enclosure in which the heater is used shall comply with one of the following:
•An enclosure with walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover. See
Figure 1.
•Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and no more than two walls. See Figure 2 & 3.
•Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and more than two walls, the following shall apply:
- At least 25% of the total wall area is completely open; and
-At least 30% of the remaining wall area is open and unrestricted. See Figure 4 & 5.
•In the case of balconies, at least 20% of the total of the side, back and front wall areas shall be and remain open and
unrestricted.
The following diagrams provide a diagrammatic representation of outdoor areas. Rectangular areas have been used in
these figures - the same principles apply to any other shaped area
