Thanks so much. Our heater would start and keep going as long as you held the knob in, release and it went out. Your video was so helpful and I had it fixed in minutes by applying a bit of sandpaper to the thermocouple.

My problem was I didn’t have 90 seconds of patience for the pressure to build up. It works fine.

There are two types of these patio heaters. The type shown here has no pilot light. The piezo electric spark ignites the main burner directly which in turn heats up the thermocouple to keep the gas control valve open after you release the knob. Other patio heaters use a pilot light, which heats the thermocouple to allow the gas valve to remain open. The main burner ignites from the pilot light rather than directly from the piezo electric spark. This type of arrangement allows you to put the heater into a "standby" condition where the pilot remains on, but main burner is off. The pilotless version does not have this ability. You can tell the difference between the two types by looking at the control valve knob. If it doesn't have a "Pilot" position, only "push", "low", and "high" (like the heater in this video), then it has no pilot light.

thank you. I was thinking of doing an outdoor gas fire place or getting one of these. I'm thinking the gas fire place will hold/radiate more heat if I have a lot of stone work around it. I've never used a heater like this, do they actually warm people well?
@MikeKlimek2 жыл бұрын
Yes, they throw off a ton of heat. Lot's of restaurants use them for outdoor dining.

The thermocouple is not electrical. It works very much like a thermometer as the mercury expands it pushes open the propane valve so that the burner will remain burning. The microswitch with the wires you are calling a tilt cutoff mechanism is actually to keep you from lighting the heater if it isn't standing straight up. It manually also cuts off the gas. The electrical wires keep the igniterr from working if the heater is tilted on the one you're showing. There is nothing electrical except the AAA battery in the igniter and it doesn't do anything except spark the igniter. Everything else is manual. Cleaning the thermocouple could increase the heat to it. Otherwise I think your thermocouple is bad
