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, removing dust and debris. Check gas connections for leaks using soapy water and inspect the burner for clogs or damage.

Keep the pilot light clean and replace if necessary. Store your heater in a dry place during off-seasons, using a protective cover. For propane heaters, ensure tanks are properly stored and maintained.

Regular inspection of heating elements, thermocouples, and safety features is crucial. Clean reflectors to maintain heat efficiency, and tighten any loose parts.

Following these maintenance steps will keep your patio heater working safely and efficiently throughout the seasons.
