FEATURES

Operation

This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is no heat loss out a vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by realistic, dancing yellow flames. This heater is designed for vent-free operation with flue damper closed. State and local codes in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free heaters. You can operate heater as a vented product by opening flue damper.

Safety Pilot

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensor Shutoff System (ODS). The ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent- free room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there is not enough fresh air.

Piezo Ignition System

This heater has a piezo ignitor. This system requires no matches, batteries, or other sources to light heater.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in a confined space unless provisions are pro- vided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Read the fol- lowing instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy effi- cient than ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home own- ers weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as pos- sible.

While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper com- bustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air from the house to operate. You must provide ad- equate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuel- burning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION

The following is exerpts from National Fuel Gas Code. NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Venti- lation.

All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:

1.Unusually Tight Contruction

2.Unconfined Space

3.Confined Space.

The information on pages 3 through 5 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.
