Troubleshooting

Flame will not ignite

Ensure the propane gas bottle is turned on, the regulator is correctly attached, and the ignition button is pressed repeatedly while holding the gas control knob. Check that the pilot light is functioning.

Low heat output

Check the gas level in the bottle; a low level can reduce pressure. Ensure the regulator is set correctly and the burner is not obstructed. Clean any dust or debris from the quartz tube and mesh.

Uneven flame distribution

Verify that the heater is on a level surface. Check the reflectors for any damage or misalignment that might be affecting heat distribution.

Gas smell after ignition

Turn off the gas supply immediately. Check all connections between the bottle, regulator, and heater for leaks using soapy water. If a leak is detected, do not use the heater until repaired.

Pilot light extinguishes easily

Ensure there are no strong drafts affecting the pilot light. Check for any blockages in the pilot tube.
