1. Have your gas supplier check all gas piping annually
for leaks or restrictions in gas lines. Also, at this time
have your gas supplier clean out the sediment trap of
any debris that may have accumulated.
2. The aappliance aarea sshall bbe kkept cclear aand ffree ffrom
combustible m materials, ggasoline, aand oother fflammable
vapors aand lliquids.
3. Regulators can wear out and function improperly.
Have your gas supplier check the date codes on all
regulators installed and check delivery pressures to
the appliance to make sure that the regulator is
reliable.
4. Regulators must be periodically inspected to make
sure the regulator vents are not blocked. Debris,
insects, insect nests, snow, or ice on a regulator can
block vents and cause excess pressure at the
appliance.
1. Before cleaning, shut off all gas supply valves and
disconnect electrical supply.
2. The heater should have dirt or dust removed
periodically:
a. After each flock or between building re-population,
give the heater a general cleaning using
compressed air or a soft brush on its interior and
exterior. At this time, dust off the motor case to
prevent the motor from over-heating and shutting
the heater down.
b. At least once a year, give the heater a thorough
cleaning. At this time, remove the fan and motor
assembly and brush or blow off the fan wheel,
giving attention to the individual fan blades.
Additionally, make sure the burner air inlet venturi
ports and the “throat” of the casting are free of
dust accumulation and the area between the heat
chamber top and inside case is also free of dust.
c. When washing with water, observe and obey the
Warning within these Cleaning Instructions. This
same Warning is also supplied on the heater.
WARNING
This heater may be washed only on the external case
assembly provided:
A. The heater is disconnected from the electrical supply.
B. All access panels are securely closed.
C. Water spray nozzle shall not discharge within 6 feet
of the heater.
D. The water pressure does not exceed 45 PSIG for 10
seconds on each side of heater.
E. The heater is not reconnected to electrical supply for
a minimum of 1 hour or until the heater is thoroughly
dry.
Improper cleaning of the heater can cause severe
personal injury or property damage due to water and/or
cleaning solution:
1. In electrical components, connections and wires
causing electrical shock or component failure.
2. On gas control components causing corrosion which
can result in gas leaks and fire or explosion from the
leak.
Clean internal components of the heater with a soft, dry
brush or cloth, or compressed air.
