Installation on Rugs and Tile

If this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance.

The base referred to above does not mean the fire-proof base as used on wood stoves. The protection is for rugs that are extremely thick and light colored tile.

Installation in Residential Garages

Gas utilization equipment in residential garages shall be installed so that all burners and burner ignition devices are located not less than 18" above the floor.

Such equipment shall be located, or protected, so it is not subject to physi- cal damage by a moving vehicle.

Qualified Installing Agency

Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization equipment or accessories and repair and servicing of equipment shall be performed only by a qualified agency. The term "qualified agency" means any indi- vidual, firm, corporation or company which either in person or through a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a) the installation or replacement of gas piping or (b) the connection, installation, repair or servicing of equipment, who is experienced in such work, familiar with all precautions required and has complied with all the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

*Available from the American National Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd St., New York, N.Y. 10036.

High Altitudes

For altitudes/elevations above 2,000 feet, input ratings should be reduced at the rate of 4 percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level. Canadian High Altitudes for locations having an elevation above mean sea level between 2,000 feet (610m) and 4,500 feet (1370m), the manifold pressure is to be decreased from 4.0" w.c. to 3.2" w.c. for Natural Gas and from 10.0" w.c. to 8.0" w.c. for Propane Gas.

Piezo Pilot Ignitor Instructions

Depressing the red button completely causes a spark to occur at the pilot.This is a substitute for a match which requires opening the pilot hole cover.

To light the pilot, it is important that the electrode be 1/8" from the ther- mocouple. The spark must occur at the point the burner flame hits the thermocouple. The end of the electrode will be red hot with the pilot on.

On a new installation with air in the gas line, it is suggested that a match be used. The match will light the pilot faster than the piezo under this condition.
