Follow Manufacturer’s Instructions
Always observe what the manufacturer of the appliance says concerning installation and its use. In line with that, the heater must rest on a flat, even surface and if applicable, be secured to prevent it from falling over.
Regular Inspection
Once in a while, check if your gas heater is functioning properly. Even slight corrosion or damage, like a burnt burner or loose wires, can affect the heater’s performance. In case of any failures, stop using the heater and contact a licensed electrician for repairs promptly.
Proper Ventilation
Lots of air space should be maintained around the heater to avoid the accumulation of carbon dioxide gas, which is hazardous. It is not advisable to install any outdoor gas heaters installed in corners or places with little oxygen circulation.
Maintain Safe Distance
Avoid housing the heater too close to fire hazards including other objects, furniture, curtains and decorative materials. Fire extinguishers should also be kept at hand’s reach just in case an accident occurs.
Do Not Leave the Heater Unattended
It is imperative that you never leave the heater alone, while it is working. Always ensure that the gas line has been shut off when it is not in use, and always store the heater in the house when not in use in order to avoid damage from the weather.
Refilling Safety of the Propane Tank
When filling newer propane tanks, make sure the tank is tightly secured and fill only if the tank is not rusted.
