The IR heater still does not work, then it is necessary to undertake repairs.
Gas heater device
First, about the cylinders for the imported gas heater. They do not at all resemble collet or other tourist ones, popular in Russia. According to American standards, everything is supplied with a thread, screwed into the receiving crown of the gas heater, reliably protecting the joint from leaks. When installing, the manuals categorically insist on checking the tightness with soapy water. Collet cylinders are not screwed into the gas heater, but simply pierced with an intake. During the maintenance of the heater, it is allowed to remove it, and after the work is completed - return it back.
The BigBuddy gas water heater is equipped with a connector for a "quick" connection. Russian equivalents are equipped with just a nipple, we will stretch a hose onto it. Inconvenient, but:
cheap;
universal;
does not require any extra fuss.
As for the BigBuddy, it holds two American propane tanks, and the aforementioned "quick" connection is located on the left.This will allow you to easily supply yourself with heat. The BigBuddy gas heater is equipped vietnam telegram data with a 6 V battery and a fan designed to blow on two ceramic grates bathed in the fire of the leading burners (left and right). The pilot flame is ignited at the start, by pressing and holding for 1 min. the gas flow control handle. This time is required to cock the electromagnetic valve using the EMF of the thermocouple installed on the pilot flame.
During a period of 1 min. the place of the semiconductor junction heats up, and the resulting voltage holds the valve in the open position with the help of a coil. This scheme is widely used in Russia, too, exclusively in gas water heaters. Simple, portable gas heaters are typical for Russia, and not complex devices like BigBuddy. And this is in vain, because for the harsh Russian conditions a heat gun would be useful, producing more effective heating of the room due to forced airflow than infrared devices. At least due to the presence of forced convection of air masses.
