Proper installation is a must for optimal performance. So, whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or prefer professional installation, the process is straightforward and efficient.

Durable & Low Maintenance

The Martin Direct Vent Heater is renowned for its durability. Its robustness is reinforced by the heavy-duty grill, made from resilient die-cast aluminum.

This die-cast aluminum heavy-duty grill doesn’t just add to the unit’s toughness; it also enables better heat flow and keeps the unit’s back at room temperature, ensuring the wall behind remains clean. This design contributes to the heater’s low maintenance needs.

But it’s not just about maintaining a comfortable temperature. This heater also prioritizes tranquility in your living space. Thanks to a heavy-duty heat exchanger made from die-cast aluminum, the heater absorbs sound. It also features a blower fan with variable speeds, and operates quietly, particularly at lower settings, thus reducing noise pollution and contributing to a tranquil environment.

Tips for Maximizing your Propane Heater's Performance

Regular maintenance is a good idea. Perform a check at least once a year, ideally before the heating season, and consider an additional check mid-winter.

Inspect the interior pipes, vents, and the rear unit openings for obstructions or residues and clean if necessary. Examine the pilot and main burner through the heat exchanger front glass for dirt or debris, and clean the inside with a vacuum or compressed air. Reassemble any disassembled parts after maintenance, referring to the installation guide if necessary for proper assembly.

With diligent care, a Martin propane heater can exceed its typical lifespan of 15 to 20 years.
