- Important: Avoid using water, solvents, or immersing the heater in any liquids.
- Explosion-Proof Cover Inspection:

- Annual Mechanical Inspection:
- Check all enclosures for cleanliness, dryness, and the absence of foreign materials.
- Verify that enclosure joints are metal-to-metal, without the use of gaskets or sealant.
- Tighten all hardware, including nuts and bolts.
- Operate the heater for at least five minutes and confirm warm air is exiting through the top vents.
- Annual Electrical Inspection:
- Examine all terminal connections and conductors.
- Tighten any loose connections and replace any conductors with damaged insulation.
