SOURCE: patio heater won't lite

There is possibly a spider web or wad of web blocking the gas flow between the valve and pilot.Take the line off between the valve and pilot and blow it out with compressed air and it should fix the problem.

First check that you are getting a spark, if not check lead and ignitor. If getting a spark make sure that there are no leaks, to do a gas leakage test see Patio heater problem solving. Next check the tilt switch if fitted, just short it out by joining up the two leads. If OK look for any debris/insects around the pilot and clean. A worn thermocouple will turn the gas off, these can last anywhere for 2 years up to 6 years but will at some point need replacing.

Can i bypass the dump switch on my patio heater

Jerry, not recommended (found this out through Googling "dump switch patio heater what for")
Apparently a dump switch is a safety cutout (I think a tilt switch is the same thing) that will cut the gas supply if someone knocks the patio heater over . It's not manually operated, it probably has something like mercury in it, so that the "switch-off" circuit is completed when the heater is tilted to a certain angle and the gas cuts off. Check links below to see why not to modify heater safety dump switch. press the helpful button

My brand new patio heater wont turn on

To get your patio heater to light first check the tank has plenty of LPG/gas and the regulator is turned to on. Next turn the gas control knob to pilot (on some heaters this is a red line on others it has a spark symbol) and press in - hold for at least 30 secs. Press the piezo ignitor several times and continue to hold for another 60 secs. Gently ease off the pilot to release and turn to full power. You should hear the gas jet come on. If there is air in the pipes you might have to repeat. Fould this site very useful patio heater top repair tips.

My gas endless summer heater shuts the flame off abruptly after 5 minutes or so. why??

The first consumable part to fail on a gas patio heater is the thermcouple, these can last anywhere between 1 year to 6 years. When faulty it will cause the heater to shut off when turned on at pilot. Found this site very useful patio heater problem solving.

Patio heater phs won't ignite

Hi, First check if you have a full tank and that the pipes are clear of any insects, water or debris. Next see if you have a spark where the pilot is, if you can hear the piezo clicking but cannot see a spark then check the lead. Sometimes the lead can get loose and short out lower down and prevent the spark from reaching the pilot. You may need to take the lead out to fully check. If you have a spark and gas is reaching the pilot then check the tilt switch, if faulty it can turn the gas valve off. To check you can just short out the tilt switch, found this site very useful patio heater problem solving.

Portable patio heater is a DCS Phoenix Professional Patio Heater Model PHF8-DWBZ-L. Burner ignites and operates for a few minutes. Then teh flame is reduced to a short yellow flame. Regulator is covered...

The regulator covered with frost is the problem. It freezes the gas and the gas line up. But, usually this only occurs when it has been exposed to subfreezing (in the teens) temperature for a long period of time. The quick fix, is to soak a bath towel in hot water, ring it out and quickly wrap it around the regulator. Once it thaws, the gas will start flowing again and you can light the burner. Generally, once it's flowing and being used, it won't freeze up again, right a way. Most propane companies add ethanol to the propane in the winter, to help keep it from freezing in the lines and the regulator.

Hope this helped answer you question and provided, at least a quick fix solution.
