The propane gas tank is full; but when turning on at high, the flamme is just barely. The line is not blocked. So what could be the problem?

You probably need to have the valve connected to the propane tank cleaned. I'm not sure how to do that.

This happened to me and I would try the following:1) If propane, make sure that your gas pressure isn't too high. Mine was (I think) 10psi and EZ tech support told me that it shouldl be 8psi (give them a call; they actually answer the phone and know what they're talking about.2) Make sure that the wiring harnesses haven't come apart during shipping. This involves removing the cover and pulling apart and re-inserting all connectors, one at a time.Good luck !!

First check to confirm your propane is ON and the propane is bleed to the heater and no air in line.

I'm going to ask some questions that may insult your intelligence: 1.)Is the attache propane tank full? 2.)Is the propane tank valve fully open? 3.) Is the boost valve on the Hot Max fully open? If all true, you have a defective unit - send it back. Mine worked fine with a full tank, fully opened tank valve and a fully opened boost value.

Why do you need a spark screen ??? You are burning propane, hence no sparks.

I don't own this item anymore but I had the same problem with mine. It would eventually light. Try turning it on and shutting your propane tank off. When you turn the tank back on open the valve slowly. Wait a minute or so and then try lighting it again. Mine worked great when it was lit.

Sometimes the gas flow is too fast and blows the flame out. Try it at a reduced gas flow.

Once you fill it with butane, let the butane settle for a few minutes. Then very gently shake the torch a little bit from side to side, and you will see the fuel moving around in there. It is sometimes hard to see, so look for it in a well-lit room. The top of the fuel should not exceed the Max line on the torch.

This is normal for any gas appliance that is pulling off a rail with one regulator. If the flow becomes so low that the first burner goes out completely, then you have two problems: 1. a defective gas regulator on the end of the hose; 2. or the orifice for the second burner is larger than the first one and is pulling more gas than required. I would talk to a local propane dealer technician if it concerns you.

Similar to trying to light a conventional torch with the flow rate of gas too high. Turn down the gas to low, which increases fuel to oxygen ratio, then try igniting the tool and slowly turn your fuel knob up.

I purchased the same heater last year and had the same problem. It looked like the gas wasn't blowing up on the spark close enough to get it ignited. I had to lean down and lightly blow between the spark and the end where the gas comes out. That got it lit.

I'm sorry deland I don't know the answer to that. I bought it thinking that the thermal coupling was the problem, only to discover my propane gas tank had the issue. Therefore, I still haven't used it.

I had an issue with air in the propane line check that out.it works perfectly fine now.

I would suggest checking your propane regulator for proper operation. Possibly test the LP gas pressure at the connection going to the water heater.

Gosh that's a hard one to answer. Other than making sure the gas line isn't interupted & the stove itself is clean maybe there's a problem internally with the heater itself. I had a heater that did that once & ended up replacing it. Would cost too much to have it repaired. Sorry I couldn't help.

I had the same problem. I first replaced the over protection switch and the hi limit switch. heater then came on and as you have it just ran hot even in air dry, so I replaced the thermostat and the heater still remain hot and brightly glowing. I talked to a repairman and he said to check the heater for a short to ground. It was shorted. Replaced the element that only had one of the ceramic element holders broke. This fixed my problem. I hope this helps.
