PRODUCT FEATURES

SAFETY PILOT

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple- tion 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.

PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM

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

PROPANE/LP SUPPLY

Propane/LP gas and propane/LP tank(s) are to be furnished by the user. The propane/LP cylinder to be used must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for the pro- pane/LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).

Use this heater only with a propane/LP vapor withdrawal supply system. See Chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA 58 and/or CAN/CGA B149.2. Your local library or fire department will have this booklet.

The amount of propane/LP gas ready for use from propane/LP tanks varies. Two factors decide this amount:

1.The amount of propane/LP gas in tank(s)

2.The temperature of tank(s)

This heater is designed for use with a 20 or 40 pound refillable propane/LP cylinder when used as a self contained heating system (with hose and regulator). Larger tanks may be used if installed in a permanent gas supply system.

The propane/LP cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve and a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD).
