GAS SUPPLY
This vented room heater must be connected to a gas supply capable of supplying the appliances full rated capacity. Provide a 1/8 inch N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the appliance. The minimum inlet pressure in the gas supply pipe should be 4.5” w.c. for Natural Gas and 11.0” w.c. for Propane Gas, “for the purpose of input adjustment”. The maximum inlet pressure in the gas supply pipe should never exceed 14” w.c. for either Natural or Propane Gas. The gas supply piping should be sized in accordance with ANSI Z223.1 National Fuel Gas Code. The normal manifold pressure should be 3.5” w.c. for Natural Gas and 10.0” w.c. for Propane Gas.
If the outlet pressure of the gas valve must be adjusted, this should be done by a qualified serviceman using proper tools and instruments.
Check all connections with soapy water for possible gas leaks. Never use a match, candle or other ignition source. It is recommended that pipe compound which is resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases be used. Do not use Teflon tape or Teflon impregnated compound.
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at the test pressure in excess of ½ psig.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig.
LOCATION AND SPEICAL
PRECAUTIONS
Due to high temperatures the appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.
Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on or near the appliance.
Any safety screen, guard, or casing top removed for servicing a room heater must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
For purpose of identifying the sides of the heater. When you are facing the front of the heater the right side has the access door and the left side is solid.
If heater is installed in a residential garage, all burners and pilot must be above 18”. Locate or protect heater so it cannot be damaged by a moving vehicle.
