GENERAL INFORMATION
The VF5000 and VF6000 Series Unvented Room Heaters covered in this manual feature ceramic fiber split logs which glow realistically when the heater is operating.
These heaters are manually controlled.
A spark ignition system (piezo) allows the heater pilot gas to be lit without the use of matches or batteries and permits operation of the heater during a power outage.
These heaters are fitted with a specially de- signed pilot (ODS) which responds to the amount of oxygen available in the room and shuts the heater off before the oxygen level drops below 18%. The pilot can be relit only when fresh air is available. Refer to the Com- bustion and Ventilation Air section.
The VF5000 and VF6000 Series Unvented Room Heaters may be built into a framed wall, or installed in an optional oak surround.
This heater has been tested to the standards of ANSI Z21.11.2 unvented heaters.
Do not install these unvented room heaters in a bedroom or bathroom as all units exceed maximum allowable BTU/Hr input of 10,000.
