Manpower Requirements

To prevent personal injury and damage to the heater, two persons will be required to remove the heater from the carton. Both ends of the heater should be lifted from the carton at the same time. The burner box should be lifted by gripping the bottom of the box. The reflector end of the heater should be lifted using the rear moveable hanger.

Safety

Thin sheet metal parts, such as the reflector portion of the heater and the various venting components, have sharp edges. To prevent injury, the use of work gloves is recommended. The use of gloves will also prevent the transfer of body oils from the hands to the surface of the reflector.

About The Heater

The MHT/HST 45 is a factory-assembled, gas fired, low-intensity heating system. The system has been designed for easy installation and will provide years of economical operation and trouble-free service. Not only is infrared heat efficient, it also provides the most comfortable conditions in open areas, such as garages.

Gas-Firedmeans it uses clean-burning Natural or LP gas.

Low-Intensitymeans that the radiant surface of the heat exchanger tube does not glow red. Instead, it operates at a lower temperature (less than 1000 F) and radiates energy at a lower intensity per square foot of radiating surface. The lower temperature and intensity levels are within a range that is most effective in establishing and maintaining personal comfort levels. An aluminum reflector directs the radiant energy downward to the occupied area.

Radiant refers to the energy radiated by the tube heater. Because the energy is in the form of infrared rays, it does not directly heat the air. Instead, the rays heat objects such as the floor, cars, machines and people. The warm objects, in turn, heat the air. These combined features are the key to the exceptional comfort and fuel efficiency provided by the tube heater.
