Safety Information

Always disconnect power to the heater before attempting any installation, maintenance, or troubleshooting. Allow the heater and bulb to cool completely before handling. Infrared bulbs operate at high temperatures and can cause severe burns if touched while hot. Ensure proper grounding and follow all local electrical codes during installation.

Do not operate the heater with a damaged or improperly installed bulb. Keep flammable materials away from the heater during operation.

Setup and Installation

The replacement bulb is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these steps carefully to ensure correct and safe replacement:

1. Power Disconnection: Before beginning, ensure the patio heater is unplugged from its power source and has completely cooled down.
2. Access the Bulb Compartment: Refer to your specific patio heater's manual for instructions on how to safely open or access the bulb compartment. This typically involves removing a protective grille or cover.
3. Remove Old Bulb: Carefully grasp the old bulb. It may have prong-style connectors at each end. Gently pull or unclip the bulb from its sockets. Avoid touching the glass part of the bulb directly with bare hands, as oils can reduce its lifespan.
4. Inspect Sockets: Check the bulb sockets for any signs of damage, corrosion, or debris. Clean if necessary.
5. Install New Bulb: Align the prongs of the new Fire Sense replacement bulb with the sockets in the heater. Gently push the bulb into place until it is securely seated. Ensure a firm connection.
6. Secure Compartment: Reattach any protective grilles or covers that were removed, ensuring they are securely fastened.
7. Test Functionality: Plug the patio heater back into the power source and turn it on to verify that the new bulb is functioning correctly.

• Connection Check: Periodically inspect the electrical connections at both ends of the bulb to ensure they remain secure and free from corrosion.
