Is there supposed to be flame coming around the cone of a 115,000 btu reddy forced air kerosne heater?

no. the flame should be behind the cone. If it passes the cone, this means that there is too much air. simply turn the air pressure screw until the flame no longer comes beyond the cone.

Heater will come on for about 4 seconds then shut off. I have a 115 BTU kerosene Reddy Heater.

Removed filter and blew out a tiny piece of debris. Didnt think that would be enough to do any harm. Put the filter back in and it started up and runs great now.

Reddy Heater not firing

Take air preassure from an air hose to turn the fan blades to loosen everything up. Time for afull service, like change the vanes in the pump, 3- filters fuel--2 air.

Kerosene Portable Forced Air heater comes on, runs awhile

Here is a link to your owner's manual... http://12.153.20.74/manuals/123919-01A.PDF. Look on page 8 and 10. It could be several things. It could only be a dirty fuel filter or the pump pressure may just need adjustment. If you need a part you can contact Master Parts at 800-466-1446 or you can find them on-line at www.masterparts.net. I hope this helps!

Portable kerozene heater

If this is a forced air kerosene heater it does not use a wick. If it is a portable wick heater you can get them for all brands at Portable Heater Parts on the web.

Kerosene Portable Forced Air heater comes on, runs awhile

The unit should have a fuel & air filter. Check that both are clear. Inside the burner tube, there will be a photo-cell, if the lense is dirty it will shut the flame off. The photo-cell needs to see the flame. You can carefully and gently, clean the lens with a tissue, soft cloth, or Q-tip. Please let me know how its coming along.
