      If your Paloma heater smells or smokes when using it for the first time, this is due to oil used during manufacturing. Operate the heater for a while in a ventilated room to dissipate the smell or smoke.

      Daniel LaneAug 20, 2025
      If your Paloma heater isn't turning on and the ON/OFF operation light isn't glowing green, try these steps: First, make sure the power cord is properly plugged in and the power is switched on. Also, check if the circuit breaker or fuse has blown. Ensure that the child lock is not activated and that the gas is turned on. If you're using an LPG appliance, verify there's enough gas in the LPG tank.

    Why does my Paloma PG-511FR Heater turn off by itself?
    • J
      Janice YoungAug 25, 2025
      If the Paloma heater turns off during operation, it could be due to a clogged air filter (the filter lamp will flash, in this case you should clean the air filter). Also, check to ensure that the hot air outlet is not blocked.

      Ricky JohnsonSep 1, 2025
      If your Paloma heater isn't making the room warm enough, check the following: ensure the set temperature isn't too low, make sure no windows or doors are open, verify the supply gas valve is fully opened, confirm the room size is appropriate for the heater's capacity, and ensure there are no obstructions within 75cm in front of the heater.

      If the flame is extinguished during operation of your Paloma heater, ensure the room is well ventilated, as the amount of oxygen inside the room may be insufficient.
