How to Maintain Patio Heaters

 Regular maintenance of your patio heater ensures optimal performance and longevity. Start by cleaning the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Check gas connections for leaks using soapy water, looking for bubbles that indicate problems. Clean the burner regularly to remove debris and ensure proper airflow.

Store your heater in a dry place during off-seasons, and cover it when not in use. Inspect the ignition system and replace batteries as needed. For propane heaters, check tank connections and replace worn gaskets.

Always follow manufacturer guidelines and conduct safety checks before each use. Professional servicing is recommended annually for optimal performance and safety.

Remember to keep spare parts handy and address any issues promptly to avoid larger problems later.
