•if you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the ﬁre department

4.This heater shall not be installed in a bedroom or bathroom, unless installed as a vented appliance. See Installing Damper Clamp Acces- sory for Vented Operation, page 10.

5.Before installing in a solid fuel burning ﬁreplace, the chimney ﬂue and ﬁrebox must be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes and loose paint by a qualiﬁed chimney cleaner. Creosote will ignite if highly heated. Inspect chimney ﬂue for damage. If damaged, repair ﬂue before operating ap- pliance.

6.If ﬁreplace has glass doors, never operate with glass doors closed, If you operate heater with doors closed, heat buildup inside ﬁreplace will cause glass to burst. Also if ﬁreplace opening has vents at the bottom, you must open the vents before operating heater.

7.To prevent the creation of soot, follow the instructions in cleaning and maintenance, page 18.

8.Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet cleaner, or similar products, turn heater off. If heated, the vapors from these products may create a white powder residue within the burner box or on adjacent walls and furniture.

9.This heater needs fresh, outside air ventilation to run properly this heater has an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The ODS shuts down the heater if enough fresh air is not available. See Air Combustion and Ventilation pages 4 through 6. If the heater keeps shutting off, see Trouble shooting, pages 19 through 21.

10.Do not run heater

•where ﬂammable liquids or vapors are used or stored

•under dusty conditions

11.Do not use heater to cook food or burn paper or other objects.

12.Do not use heater if any part has been exposed to or under water. Im-

mediately call a qualiﬁed service technician to inspect the room heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

13.Do not operate heater if any log is broken. Do not operate heater if a log is chipped (dime-size or larger).

14.Turn heater off and let cool before servicing, installing, or repair-

ing. Make sure the selector switch is in the OFF position (Remote- Ready Models Only). Only a qualiﬁed service person should install, service, or repair heater.

15.Make sure the selector switch is in the OFF position when you are away from home for long periods of time (Remot-Ready Models Only).

16.Remote-ready heaters shall not be connected to any external electri- cal source.

17.Operating heater above elevations of 4,500 feet may cause pilot out- age.

18.To prevent performance problems, do not use propane/LP tank(s) of less than 10 lb. capacity (propane/LP units only).

19.Provide adequate clearances around air openings.

WARNING: Failure to position the parts in accordance with these diagrams or failure to use only parts speciﬁcally approved with this heater may result in property damage, or personal injury.

VFRMV24NA, VFRMV18NA, VFRMV18PA specifications

The Desa VFRMV18NA, VFRMV18PA, and VFRMV24NA are advanced heating solutions designed to efficiently warm residential spaces while providing enhanced user comfort and convenience. These models are part of the VFRMV series, known for their reliability, innovative technology, and energy efficiency.

One of the main features of the VFRMV series is its variable refrigerant flow (VRF) technology. This allows the system to modulate the amount of refrigerant sent to each indoor unit based on the current heating or cooling load, resulting in optimal energy consumption. This flexibility not only saves energy but also ensures that the desired temperature can be quickly achieved and maintained across different rooms.

The VFRMV18NA and VFRMV18PA models are designed for residential use, with the VFRMV18PA specifically including additional features for enhanced performance in various climatic conditions. They come equipped with inverter-driven compressors, which adjust their speed to meet demand, leading to quieter operation and improved efficiency. This inverter technology ensures that energy consumption decreases during periods of lower demand, making these models environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

The VFRMV24NA model, with its higher capacity, is suitable for larger spaces or homes needing additional heating and cooling power. Like its counterparts, it features a high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings, indicating its efficiency in energy use, which translates into savings on energy bills for homeowners.

In terms of characteristics, all three models incorporate user-friendly controls, allowing homeowners to easily adjust settings and schedule operations. Smart technology integration enables remote monitoring and control via mobile apps, giving users the ability to manage their indoor climate on the go.

Additionally, the VFRMV series features advanced filtration systems that improve indoor air quality by capturing dust and allergens, making these models an excellent choice for households with allergy sufferers. The units are also designed with sleek, modern aesthetics, ensuring they blend seamlessly with a variety of interior designs.

In summary, the Desa VFRMV18NA, VFRMV18PA, and VFRMV24NA offer cutting-edge technology, impressive efficiency, and user-friendly features. With their VRF technology, inverter-driven compressors, and smart controls, these heating solutions provide an ideal choice for homeowners seeking comfort, efficiency, and convenience in their indoor environments.
