Radiance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Gas Heater

CAUTION

This appliance should only be connected by a qualiﬁed gas technician. Test to conﬁrm manifold pressures as speciﬁed below.

The Radiance Heater and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The Radiance Heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi- vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

There must be a gas shutoff between the stove and the supply.

In order to connect Natural Gas, use a ﬁtting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” natural gas supply line with an input of 35,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 3.5” between minimum inlet supply of 5.5” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.

In order to connect Propane, use a ﬁtting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” propane gas sup- ply line with an input of 35,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” between a minimum inlet supply of 11.0” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.

The appliance must only use the gas speciﬁed on the rating plate, unless converted using a Vermont Castings Fuel Conversion Kit. To convert from LP to Natural Gas use Kit #000-5009. To convert from Natural Gas to LP use Kit #000-5010.

Conversion instructions are provided with each kit and

beginning on Page 29 in this manual.

THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE CON- NECTED TO THE GAS SUPPLY ONLY BY A QUALIFIED GAS SERVICE TECHNICIAN. FOLLOW ALL LOCAL CODES.

THERE MUST BE A GAS SHUT-OFF BE- TWEEN THE STOVE AND THE SUPPLY.

In order to connect Propane, use a ﬁtting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” propane gas supply line with an input of 35,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” between a minimum inlet supply of 11.0” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.
