PRODUCT FEATURES

OPERATION

This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is no heat loss out a vent or up a chimeney. Heat is generated by both realistic flames and glowing coals. This heater is designed for vent-free operation with flue damper closed. It has been tested and approved to ANSI Z21.11.2 standard for unvented heaters. State and local codes in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free heaters. This heater may also be operated as a vented decora- tive (ANSI Z21.60) product by opening the flue damper (Non-Thermosta models only).

SAFETY DEVICE

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety shut off 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 requires no matches, batteries, or other sources to light heater.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND

VENTILATION

WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Read the following in- structions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as possible.

While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air from the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these ap- pliances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUATE

VENTILATION

The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation.

All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifica- tions:

1.Unusually Tight Construction

2.Unconfined Space

3.Confined Space

The information on pages 4 through 6 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional fresh air.

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.
