5.3.1 Bird Screen Installation

The bird screen supplied with the heater must always be installed with the galvanized vent option. The screen is to be installed directly in the end of the 3" (80 mm) flue pipe or in the vent terminal extension available as an option. Both screen installations are described below.

Installing bird screen in 3" (80 mm) flue pipe:

1.Insert the bird screen into the inside diameter of the 3" (80 mm) flue pipe as shown on Page 23, Figure 17.

2.Secure the bird screen in position with a sheet- metal screw.

Installing bird screen in optional vent terminal exten- sion:

1.Insert the bird screen into the inside diameter of the vent terminal extension as shown on Page 23, Figure 17.

2.Using the handle from a hammer, or other similar device, push the bird screen into the vent exten- sion as far as possible.

3.Orient the vent extension as shown in Figure 17. Slip the extension onto 3" (80 mm) flue pipe as far as possible; secure the vent extension to the flue pipe with three sheetmetal screws.

WARNING

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

Heater must be exhausted outside. Use materials supplied.

This heater needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or injury.

After the heater has been properly suspended in accordance with the preceding headings of this sec- tion, proceed to install the venting as described below:

NOTE: The 90° elbow kit (P/N 08038000) will be required for this installation.

1.Using a tape measure, measure the distance from the floor to the center of the vent collar on the rear
