TF-SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY

The installer is responsible for the following:

To install the heater, as well as the gas and elec- trical supplies, in accordance with applicable specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon recom- mends the installer contact a local building inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.

To use the information given in a layout drawing and in the manual together with the cited codes and regulations to perform the installation.

To install the heater in accordance with the clearances to combustibles.

To furnish all needed materials not furnished as standard equipment.

To plan location of supports.

To provide access to burners for servicing on all sides for burner removal.

To provide the owner with a copy of this installa- tion, operation and service manual.

To never use heater as support for a ladder or other access equipment and never hang or suspend anything from heater.

To ensure there is adequate air circulation around the heater and to supply air for combustion, venti- lation and distribution in accordance with local codes.

To safely and adequately install heater using materials with a minimal working load of 75 lbs (33 kg).

To ensure the heater is placed in a approved application.

2.1 Wall Tag

A laminated wall tag is available for the heater as a permanent reminder of the safety instructions and the importance of the required clearances to combustibles. Please contact Roberts-Gordon or your ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor to obtain the wall tag. Affix the tag by peeling off the backing of the adhesive strips on the rear surface and position the tag on a wall near the heater (e.g. thermostat or ROBERTS GORDON® Controller).

A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91037912) is illustrated on the back cover. For an immediate solution, you may affix this copy on the wall near the heater.

Know your model number and installed configuration. Model number and installed configuration are found on the burner and in the Installation, Operation and Service Manual. See Page 6, Figure 3 through Page

9, Figure 12. Write the proper clearance dimensions in permanent ink according to your model number and configuration in the open spaces on the tag.

2.2 Corrosive Chemicals

CAUTION

Product Damage Hazard

Do not use heater in area containing corrosive chemicals.

Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).

Failure to follow these instructions can result in product damage.

Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the premises.

*Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemi- cal compounds characterized by the presence of halogen elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds are frequently used in refriger- ants, cleaning agents, solvents, etc. If these com- pounds enter the air supply of the burner, the life span of the heater components will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must be provided to the burners whenever the presence of these com- pounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.

2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes

All appliances must be installed in accordance with the latest revision of the applicable standards and national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas and venting installation. Note: Additional standards for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars, etc. may be applicable.
