What happens if the heater loses electrical power, or is accidentally unplugged?
The heater will automatically shut off, and fuel will stop being pumped to the combustion chamber. top Q: Can I use kerosene from last season? A: Kerosene breaks down over time. Never use kerosene that has been stored from one season to the next. Never store leftover kerosene over the summer. Using old fuel can damage your heater. top Q: How much ventilation do I need to use my heater safely? A: The standard is to always provide a fresh air opening in the heated space of at least 3 square feet (2,800 sq. cm.) for each 100,000 BTU/Hr of heater output. For example, a PT-125T-KFA (125,000 BTUs/Hr) heater will require: • A two car garage door open 6 inches, or • A single car garage door open 9 inches, or • Two 32″ (thirty two inch) wide windows to be open 15 inches. top Q: Can I use an extension cord? If so, what size do I need? A: Yes you can use extension cords with your heater. Please use the right size extension cord as shown below: • 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters), use 18 AWG conducto
