I'd be checking what the operating gas pressure is correct - when it's operating, not when it's stopped or off. My suspicion is that the gas pressure is incorrect & the regulator needs adjusting, or that the gas bottle is simply too small for the heater & can't evaporate enough gas to keep it going. You really need a gas expert to advise on site. Regards, Greg (Aussie gasfitter - too far to do house calls)

I have a Problematic Premiere Portable Gas Heater with 4 burners.

Hi,

I would order the original gas bottle from the manufacturer in order to avoid any unforeseen issues with it working with the heater. If this does not work, then you might need to send the whole unit in for repair (if possible) by calling the manufacturer and asking for the nearest repair vendors.

Thank you.

How to clean gas heaters

Agas heater is a device that uses liquefied gas for heating. Since it isconnected to a gas source, cleaning it is quite easy. Keeping the gasheater in good condition by cleaning it from time to time is importantto prolong its durability. Cleaning the gas heater regularly is alsoimportant from a safety perspective, because deposits in the flue, oranywhere else in the device, can sometimes lead to problems.

    Checking
  1. If the gas furnace is not running, the power could be disconnected, the motor overloaded, or the gas supply insufficient. Check each of these components individually, ensuring the gas heater has sufficient power and that the motor is running (you will be able to hear if it is running when it kicks on). Check the gas reserves tank to ensure there is gas in it. If these systems function properly and you are still having difficulty, your heater may need to be cleaned or repaired.
  2. Cleaning
  3. If your heater is not heating properly, dirt in the gas lines--and especially the burner ports--could be the cause of the problem. First,disconnect the lever that connects the gas supply to the appliance. The burner ports are the parts that distribute the gas supply into the heater. They have to be cleaned with the help of a toothbrush or flask cleaner. The part called the burner access panel, which is located at the tank's lower part, may also have to be replaced if there is a dirt build up. This piece can be purchased at your local home improvement store and replaced according to the directions on the package.Generally, this should be replaced every two years.
  4. Filter
  5. If your heater is turning on and off repeatedly this could be caused by dirt in the filter or lack of lubrication in the motor or blower. Check your users manual to locate the filter (it is usually a large piece that slides in and out of your gas heater from the side), remove it after the gas has been turned off, and wipe off any excess dirt.Alternatively, you can replace the filter entirely rather inexpensively. Simply remove the filter, write down the model number and get a replacement from your local home improvement store.

How do I make my lawn mower run better?

Yes, clean the air filter if it's a foam , washable fliter. If it's not the washable kind , replace it. Also replace the gas filter if there's one on the engine. Buy a can or bottle of carburetor and fuel system cleaner and put it in the gas tank to clean the carburetor.

I have a five year old Raypak 207A on my 500 gal spa. When I turn the unit on, the display shows: PV 1, then CFH, then SPK, then the burner ignites, then CFH again, then it displays the flame icon and...

CFH means "Call For Heat", and SPK is "Spark". It sounds like you are running out of gas.Propane tanks need to have 30% in the tank for a heater to run correctly,and after they are filled you must bleed the air out of the line.If you have Natural gas,the gas line may be too small to supply enough gas to keep it running. NOTE...gas pressure MUST be checked with the heater running.

We are getting luke warm water and the low gas alarm is sounding even though we have a full bottle of gas. My gas hob is working fine.

even though you have a full bottle it might not be the right bottle, you have to have a min 2lb for a water heater to work, take and have the bottle checked to make sure it is the right pressure tank

Take along the old element with you while looking around for a new one in the market. It is absolutely vital to change the element otherwise it can send some current in the swimming pool. First of all, turn off the power supply to the heater to avoid any injuries. Open up the drain pipe and take out water from it. Fix the new element and test the heater by filling water in your swimming pool so that the heater can work to its full efficiency.
