CLEANING THE FILTER

1. During EEach FFlock — Remove the filter and shake out

the dust. Reinstall the filter according to previous

instructions.

2. After EEach FFlock — If necessary, remove the filter and

use compressed air and/or water to clean the filter.

Make sure to squeeze out any excess water from the

filter before reinstalling the filter back onto the filter

sleeve. DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER TO CLEAN

THE FILTER. DO NOT WASH IN A WASHING MACHINE.

High pressure, either water or air, can tear the filter

material. Use standard faucet pressure only. Clean the

venturi tube and cones if necessary using pressurized

air and/or water. Refer to the cleaning instruction

guidelines in this Owner's Manual. Let the heater and

filter dry completely before lighting.

CAUTION

■

Never allow the filter to become fully clogged with dust

and dirt.

■

A dust choked filter will restrict the combustion air,

causing improper combustion.

■

Signs of improper combustion include: backflashing

of flame into the venturi tube, yellowing of the flame

within the burner cone, presence of blue and/or

yellow flames outside of the outer cone or carbon

sooting on the underside of the canopy.

■

At first signs of any of these conditions, clean the

filter.

ATTENTION

■

Do not squeeze or tap the filter while the heater is in

operation.

■

Doing so will allow dust to be ingested within the

venturl tube and cones.

■

Shut the heater off and remove filter in its entirety

and shake out dust
