I have the same heater, Red Stone RS-235 that is usable but ready for a new wick. Your video was at the top of the search. I see you are Very Handy Capable. Thank You.

Thank You! Yes I do really try. I swear this same heater has 20 different brand names but it’s the most common one I’ve ever seen. I really want to put a natural gas one in but the hookup is on the other side of the house. Glad you liked it!

It’s funny how something is simple as replacing a wick is poorly documented on the Internet. I guess where there’s a need someone will eventually fill it. thanks for watching!

I’m sorry to hear that. Maybe you could post a video and send me the link? I’ve taken that heater apart several times now.

How do you shut it off? Thanks!!

@armedanddangerousdiy6096 6 ай бұрын

There is a hand crank that raises and lowers the wick. You just crank the wick counterclockwise until it is fully retracted into the bottom of the unit, and that will extinguish the flame.
