PRODUCT FEATURES

SAFETY DEVICE

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. 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.

IGNITION SYSTEM

This heater has either a piezo ignitor or electronic ignitor to light heater fuel supply.

THERMOSTATIC HEAT CONTROL

Thermostat models have a thermostat sensing bulb and a control valve. This results in the greatest heater comfort. This can also result in lower gas bills.
