The clearance to combustible materials represents the minimum distance that must be maintained between the heater and a nearby surface.

The stated clearance to combustible materials represents the minimum distance that must be maintained between the outer heater surface and a nearby surface. The stated clearance to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 90 degree Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius) above room temperature. Building material with a low heat tolerance (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-ply, filmy materials, fabrics, etc.) may be subject to degradation at lower temperatures. It is the installer’s responsibility to assure that adjacent material are not subject to degradation.

In a parking structure, a sign with a warning statement that an overhead heater is present should be installed in a visible location. Minimum required clearances below the heater should be clearly visible so that appropriate distances to combustibles will be maintained to vehicles.

In locations used for the storage of combustible materials, signs must be posted to specify the maximum permissible stacking height to maintain the required clearances from the heater to the combustibles, and that such signs must either be posted adjacent to the heater thermostats or in the absence of such thermostats in a conspicuous location. For your convenience a sign is provided with these instructions. (A sample stacked combustibles warning sign is included in the last page of this manual). See information on “maximum stack height under appliance”.

In addition to stored or stationary material, consideration must also be given to moveable objects such as cranes, vehicles, and overhead doors, and structural objects that may have their own specified minimum clearances to heat sources, such as sprinkler heads, electrical and gas lines, and electrical fixtures.

Minimum clearances (cm and inches) from combustibles are measured from the radiant surface.

Clearances are reduced by 1/3, 15 ft (4.6 m) from the burner.

CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES (CONT.)

For installation at elevations above 2000 ft (610 m), the appliance shall be de-rated 4 percent for each 1000 ft (305 m) of elevation above sea level. Required clearances apply to the appliance rated input, not the de-rated equivalent.

WARNING

Location of flammable or explosive objects, liquids or vapors close to the heater may cause fire or explosion and result in property damage, injury or death. Do not use, store or locate flammable or explosive objects, liquids or vapors in close proximity to the heater. Ensure that adequate distance is maintained from the appliance to any such material that the material cannot reach temperatures that would approach potential flashpoint/ignition/explosion thresholds.

Provide adequate space around the burner and off the gas connection end of the burner to allow for servicing.

Minimum distance from the radiant surface to the floor in non-agricultural installations is 7 ft (2.1 m) in Canada, and 8 ft (2.4 m) U.S.A.

Minimum clearances (inches and cm) from combustibles are measured from radiant surface. The clearances are reduced by 1/3,15 ft (4.6 m) from the burner.

MAXIMUM STACK HEIGHT BELOW APPLIANCE

In locations used for storage of combustible materials, signs must be posted specifying the maximum stacking height to maintain the required clearances from the heater to combustibles.

For maximum stacking height, deduct listed appliance “below” clearance from the distance from the floor to the appliance emitter tubes.

The signs must be posted either adjacent to the infrared heating system thermostats or in the absence of such thermostats, in a conspicuous place.

See suitable example of warning sign on last page of these instructions.

WARNING

INSTALLATIONS OTHER THAN SPACE HEATING

Use for process or other applications that are not space heating will void the products warranty. Process application requires field inspection and/or certification by local authorities having jurisdiction.

IMPORTANT

Single or multiple heater placements must be such that continuous operation of heater(s) will not cause combustible material or materials in storage to reach a temperature in excess of ambient temperature plus 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius).

It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance, which may degrade at lower temperatures, are protected to prevent degradation. Refer to “Clearance to Combustibles” information in these installation instructions.

GENERAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

PRE-INSTALLATION SURVEY

It is recommended that a full heating design, including a heat loss calculation be conducted. Heater sizing and placement must consider available mounting height, sources of heat loss, and clearances to combustibles with respect to stored material, moveable objects (cranes, vehicles, lifts, overhead doors, etc) sprinkler systems, and other obstructions on the site. Consideration must also be given to vent / duct placement and the allowable combined lengths of vent and duct.

- Carefully survey the area to be heated and place the burner and combustion chamber in the coldest area if possible.

- The heater shall be hung in such a fashion so as to conform with the clearances to combustibles described on the name plate.

- Clearances to combustibles must be maintained from vehicles parked below.

- Adequate clearances must be maintained for installation in public garages and airplane hangars.

- Verify location with respect to the building construction and equipment, so as to provide sufficient clearances and accessibility for servicing.

PRE-INSTALLATION SURVEY (CONT.)

shaped models: connect the 180 degree bend to the radiant tube and securely

- The installation must comply with local codes and CAN/CGA B-149.1 in

Canada or the National Fuel Gas codes ANSI Z 223.1 (NFPA 54) in the United States.

- Ensure site electrical requirements are met. Consult the latest edition

Electrical Code PART 1 CSA C22.1 in Canada and ANSI/NFPA NO 70 in the USA.

- The heating system must have gas piping of the correct diameter, length, and

arrangement to supply adequate fuel to allow the appliance to function properly.

APPLIANCE INSTALLATION

Straight, L-Shaped & “U” shaped Heaters

- Identify and verify all components of tube heater prior to installation.

Appliances ship in components to be assembled on site. Ensure that correct number of primary tubes (tube with sight glass that burner attaches to), and baffle secondary tubes (secondary tube with baffle pre-installed, labeled) are accounted for. Verify that all other components/accessories listed on the factory material packing list are present and accounted for.

- Ensure all hanger supports are in line, and allow for level hanger suspension. Suspend hangers from anchors with suitably rated min. #10 chain, threaded rod, turnbuckle, etc., adhering strictly to the required hanger locations in the following diagrams.

- If hanger locations do not line up with framing as required for support, you may need to securely attach strapping/backing to the structure as required.

- Attach hanger supporting anchors securely, and directly into building

structure only – in no case should any support that anchors only into drywall or other interior wall/ceiling facing be used for installing this appliance. Refer to section “Suspending The System”

- Ensure that hanger is suspended in a manner that will allow free movement with lateral expansion/contraction of the appliance.

- The first hanger must be no more than 6 inches from the burner.

- For straight unit hangers, suspend from the top ring on the hanger if the reflectors are to be horizontal, and the side ring of the reflectors are to be angled. For U configured units, each side of the hanger must have its own chain and anchor. IMPROPER HANGER PLACEMENT CAN CAUSE THE RADIANT TUBE TO WARP AND VOID WARRANTY.

- With hangers in place, the primary tube, and subsequent secondary tube can now be placed in the hangers. Self tapping screws are provided to be installed into the expanded end of the radiant tube. Slide the tubes together making sure that the first tube is inserted all the way into the expanded end of the secondary tube. Install the self-tapping screws at 120 degree intervals to secure the two tubes together. The self-tapping screw holes must be adequately sealed during installation using a suitably rated high temperature RTV silicone sealant.

- Suitably rated high temperature RTV silicone may be applied around tube joints.

- Utighten with self tapping screws provided.

Straight, L-Shaped & “U” shaped Heaters (Cont.)

- If using 90 degree elbow on a model ED-40-S unit to achieve an “L” configuration (Part # AC1210), install the elbow between the primary and secondary tube, and secure using the same methods above. Ensure that all lengths of tube are adequately supported, using no less than 2 hangers for each 10’ of total tube length.

- U-shaped models: connect the 180 degree bend to the radiant tube and securely tighten with self tapping screws provided using the methods described above.

- Make sure to secure all tube joints using the 3 screws provided in 120 degree intervals as indicated in the tube assembly diagram below.

- All ED series units require a baffle. The baffle must be installed at the vent end, located at the extreme opposite end of the heater from the burner. Baffles are pre-installed in a 10’ section of tube and are clearly labeled.

- Reflectors can now be placed in the hangers. To prevent “walking” of the reflectors, the first and second reflector can be joined together at the overlap with a sheet metal screw

- With the radiant tube and reflectors now installed, the burner can be fitted on the primary tube and secured using the pre-installed set screw. The burner does not require its own hanging support provided the first hanger is no more than 6 inches from the burner joint. If the first hanger is more than 6 inches from the

burner joint, warping of the primary tube may occur and the warranty will be void.

- Connect the burner to the gas supply using a suitably approved flexible gas connector as outlined in this manual.

- Install exhaust/intake air venting as outlined in this manual.

- Install thermostat control wiring as outlined in this manual.

TUBE ASSEMBLY

REFLECTOR EXTENSIONS

Reflector extensions (part number P-1930) may be installed on one side or both sides of the reflector as required to reduce lateral heater output on one or both sides of the unit. Reflector extensions are 10 ft long x 9”. Drill 3 holes per reflector, and secure extensions to reflector by means of field provided S hooks.

SUSPENDING THE SYSTEM

WARNING

Inadequate or improper suspension of the tube heater can result in collapse of

the system, property damage, risk of fire/explosion, personal injury and/or death.

It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the hardware and structural supports from

which the heater is suspended are sound and of adequate strength to support the

weight and expansion forces of the heater. In no case should any support that

anchors only into drywall or other interior wall/ceiling facing be used for

installing this appliance.

Consider that the heater will expand in length as much as ½ inch (12.7) or more for

every 10 ft

(3 m) of system length. Typically, the greater the firing rate, the greater the expansion.

Survey the available structural supports, considering the system configuration and heat

requirements of the area to establish the optimum heater location. Locating a heater

directly under joists or beams, or installing supplemental steel support rail or angle iron

can substantially reduce labor and material requirements. Hardware with a minimum 60

lbs (27 kg) workload must be used at each heater suspension point. Connect the

structure using typical hardware as illustrated below or by other mechanically sound

means.

ELECTRICAL/CONTROLS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

120VAC / 60 Hz / Single Phase / 1A / 3 Wire Grounded

Starting Current: 3 amps

Running Current: 1 amp

1. Electrical installation must be grounded in accordance with CSA Standard C22.1 part 1 in Canada or The National Electrical code ANSI NFPA 70 (latest edition) in the United States.

2. Polarity of line voltage and neutral wires must be maintained.

3. The total load of all heaters in a circuit must be considered so as to not overload the circuit.

4. Ensure that thermostat wire polarity is maintained.

THERMOSTAT CONTROL

Heaters are designed for compatibility with either 120 Volt (line) thermostat controllers or 24 Volt thermostat controllers. For use with 120 Volt controllers, the heater must be plugged into a “switched” 120 Volt duplex receptacle, where the receptacle is switched by the thermostat controller. Heating zones may be established where one 120 Volt thermostat controls more than one heater, provided the total heater electrical load does not exceed the maximum allowable amperage on the circuit.

For a 24 volt thermostat control, plug the heater into a 120 Volt duplex receptacle. Remove the jumper wire on the control box marked “24 Volt thermostat” and connect the thermostat wire to the terminals. Do not allow live thermostat wires to contact appliance chassis, or damage to the appliance transformer/controls may occur. Ensure that if the thermostat has a heat anticipator, the heat anticipator is set at maximum. When using a 24 Volt thermostat, only one heater may be directly controlled by one thermostat unless a system of field supplied relays are utilized.

For 2 stage appliances, connect wires as marked on appliance terminal. Polarity must be maintained. If required, connect thermostat ground to appliance ground post.

GAS SUPPLY

PIPING

1. All gas piping and connections shall be made in accordance with all applicable local codes and the latest versions of CAN/CGA B-149 or ANSI standard Z223.1.

2. Connect the burner to gas supply with flexible gas connector.

3. A drip leg must be installed in the gas line at the heater inlet connection tee followed by a pipe drop to the heater. Failure to provide a drip leg could result in condensation and foreign matter passing into the gas valve. Failure to install a drip leg in the gas line can cause property damage, injury or death and will void the heater warranty.

CAUTION: Ensure that flexible gas connectors are installed correctly to allow for heater expansion/contraction during operation. Install flexible connectors as follows:

WARNING

Never use a match or other flame to test for gas leaks. Use soap and water solution to check for leaks to all connections and joints and if bubbles appear, leaks have been detected and must be corrected. Never operate an appliance with leaking fuel supply system. The supply system should be checked first with appliance turned off followed by another check while appliance is operating.

GAS SUPPLY, HEATER EXPANSION, AND FLEXIBLE GAS

CONNECTION

The required flexible gas connector must be used, and are available from Easy Radiant “Works”. Flexible gas connectors used from alternate sources must adhere to the following Standards:

The connection of a radiant tube type infrared heater to the gas supply line, in particular taking into account the heater’s thermal expansion and contraction, the gas supply must be installed using:

In Canada a type 1 hose connector that is certified as being in compliance with the

Standard for Elastomeric Composite Hose and Hose Couplings for Conducting Propane and Natural Gas, CSA 8.1; and of a length of 36 ± 6 in (91 ± 15 cm) with an

ID of a least ½ in (12.7 mm).

In USA an approved Stainless Steel Flexible Gas Connector certified for use on an infrared radiant tube heater per the Standard for Gas Appliances ANSI Z21.24 CSA

6.10. and comply with a 24 in (610 mm) to 36 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of

a least 1/2 in (12.7 mm). Heaters installed with maximum thermal expansion of up to 2 in (50 mm) shall be installed with a 24 in (610mm) to 35 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of a least 1/2 in (12.7 mm) and; Heaters with maximum thermal expansion of up 3 in. (76.2 mm) shall be installed with 36 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of a least 1/2 in (12.7 mm) and; heaters with maximum thermal expansion of more than 3 in (76.2 mm), but less than 6 in shall be installed with a 36 in (914 mm) long connector with an ID of at least 3/4 in (19.05 mm).

The distance between the distal mounting positions shall be measured with the appliance “OFF” at ambient temperature and at normal operating temperature. The difference between the two distances shall be used to select an appropriate flexible connector.

Also the flue vent, and combustion air intake (if used) must be installed in such a manner that the normal expansion of the heater will be accommodated

WARNING

HEATER EXPANSION

Consider that the heater will expand in length as much as ½ inch (12.5 mm) or more for every 10 ft (3 m) of system length. In general, the greater the appliance firing rate, the greater the rate of expansion.

This heater will expand in length as it heats up. It is a normal condition that during heat-up and cool-down a tube heater will expand and contract. Allowances for heater expansion must be made in the gas connection, venting and combustion air ducting. Improper installation, alteration, or adjustment can result in property damage, injury or death.

The BTU input and the tube length determine the overall expansion that occurs. A typical infrared tube installation will expand toward both the burner and the vent end.

Compensation for normal gas supply pipe expansion and radiant tube heater expansion must be provided. All piping must conform to local codes. Provide a 1/8 in (3.2 mm) NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the heater.

Test for leaks. All gas piping and connections must be tested for leaks after the installation is completed.

The heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve (field supplied) during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system.

Apply soap solution to all connections and joints and if bubbles appear, leaks have been detected and must be corrected. Do not use a match or open flame of any kind to test for leaks. Never operate a heater with leaking connections.

The gas supply system should be checked first with the heater turned off followed by another check with the heater turned on.

IMPORTANT: To ensure adequate gas supply pressure at maximum potential

load, the supply gas pressure must be checked at all appliances when all heaters, as well as any other gas appliance that is drawing from the same system, are ignited and operating.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS

VENTING TO THE OUTSIDE

In all cases, appliance venting must satisfy all requirements of the most recent versions of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, and any other provisions made by local authorities having relevant jurisdiction.

MATERIALS

All venting must be conventional venting material, with a minimum 26 gauge single-wall metallic gas vent pipe of at least 4” (10 cm) diameter. An agency certified side wall vent thimble or roof stack system approved for high temperature applications may also be used for combustible wall/roof penetrations. Unless otherwise specified by the vent manufacturer, minimum clearances to combustibles for un-insulated single wall vent materials is 6” (15 cm).

Agency certified single wall, double wall, and insulated venting systems must meet or exceed the above criteria. All manufactured vent material, adapters, thimbles and terminations used must be certified for use with positive pressure gas fired appliances, with a continuous temperature rating of a minimum of 450 F (232 C). Transition between single wall, double wall or insulated vent materials as requirements dictate. In cases where a manufactured venting system’s certified installation instructions contravene this manual (e.g., vent lengths, vent clearances, number of elbows, transitions, required terminations, etc.) defer to the specifications outlined in the venting system’s manual. In cases where suitability for a manufactured vent system is in

question, contact Easy Radiant Works, the vent manufacturer, or the local gas authority for clarification.

VENT LENGTHS

Minimum Vent Lengths: A minimum total length of 36” (91 cm) of venting material is

required for this heater. A minimum vent length of 12” (30 cm) is required prior to any vent elbow or tee in the exhaust venting.

Maximum Vent Lengths: The maximum allowable length of vent pipe is 30 ft (9.1m). This length includes the combination of inlet air vent for combustion and exhaust venting. THE RADIANT TUBE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MEASUREMENT. For every 90 degree bend in the system, 5 ft (1.5 m) must be deducted from the total allowable vent length. Exceeding these allowable lengths may create condensation or soot conditions and will void appliance certification and warranty.

If using single wall un-insulated vent material longer than 25 feet (7.6 m) it is recommended that the venting after the 25’ (7.6 m) mark be of a insulated material, or insulated with a suitable insulation material that is approved and specified by the insulation manufacturer to withstand temperatures up to 450 F (232 C). Insulating single wall venting in situations where excessive condensation occurs is also recommended.

EXHAUST VENT TERMINATION SPECIFICATIONS

Clearances from the exhaust vent termination are determined by local or national codes, but must not be less than 6” (15 cm.) from any combustible materials. All building materials must be adequately protected from potential degradation by flue gases.

For unvented installations, a minimum distance of 48 in. (122 cm) is required from the end of the heater to a combustible surface.

Distances from exhaust vent termination to adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, windows, and building openings must be consistent with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.

CANADA SPECIFIC EXHAUST VENT TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS:

A vent will not terminate:

- Within 6 ft (1.8 m) of a mechanical air supply inlet to any building. Above a gas utility meter and regulator assembly with 3 ft (0.9 m) horizontally of the vertical centerline of the regulator vent outlet to a maximum vertical distance of 14 ft (4.5m).

- Within 3 ft (90 cm) of any gas pressure regulator vent outlet.

- For units with inputs of up to 100,000 BTUH: Within 12 in. (30 cm) of a window or door that can be opened in any building, any non-mechanical air supply inlet to any building, or of the combustion air inlet of any other appliance.

- For units with inputs over 100,000 BTUH: Within 36 in. (91.5 cm) of a window or door that can be opened in any building, any non-mechanical air supply inlet to any building, or of the combustion air inlet of any other appliance.

- Less than 7’ above a paved driveway/sidewalk/path

U.S.A. SPECIFIC EXHAUST VENT TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS:

- The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12 in (30 cm) above grade.

A horizontal vent will not terminate:

- Less than 3 ft (90 cm) above a mechanical air inlet located with 10 ft (3.1 m).

- Less than 4 ft (1.2 m) below, 4 ft (1.2 m) horizontally from, and 1 ft (0.3 m) above any window or door that opens, or gravity air inlet to a building.

- Less than 4 ft (1.2 m) horizontal clearance from gas and electric meters, regulators and relief equipment.

TERMINATION CAPS

When venting through the side wall with a vent material that does not have a specific side wall termination cap requirement, a Easy Radiant Works approved vent spout or exhaust cap must be used (part numbers AC1180 for 4” OD cap, AC1190 for 4” ID cap).

When venting through the roof, a suitable roof stack system that adheres to the above material requirements must be used. When vent and combustion air are taken through the roof, the exhaust vent should always terminate higher than the combustion air intake, to prevent recycling the products of combustion back into the heater. Adhere to all current local codes and/or ANSIZ223.1 / CSA.B149.1 latest editions for all venting requirement and practices.

TERMINATION CAPS (CONT.)

When venting with a manufactured vent system, vent termination caps must be of a design that prevents direct wind infiltration into the venting system. If wind is permitted to infiltrate into the venting system, static pressure may build and trip the appliance blocked flue sensor, resulting in nuisance appliance shutdowns.

GENERAL EXHAUST VENT INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

- All vent pipe used with a slip fit connection must be mechanically secured by

means of 3 stainless sheet metal steel screws at 120 degree intervals.

- All vent pipe used that does not have a manufactured gasket/sealing

mechanism must be sealed with a suitably rated high temperature RTV type silicone at all joints, in addition to sealing any screw penetrations.

- If a seam is present in a single wall duct material, orient the seam to the top

side of the duct, and apply high temperature RTV silicone and/or suitable metal tape as required to ensure that the seam is gas tight.

- All venting used must be adequately supported to prevent sagging.

- When the vent pipe passes through a cold or unheated area where the

ambient temperature is likely to produce condensation of the flue gases, the vent pipe must be insulated with a suitable insulation material that is approved and specified by the insulation manufacturer to withstand temperatures up to 450 F (232 C).

- Blockages of air intake and exhaust vent caps by snow and/or ice must be

prevented.

- A maximum of 3 90 degree elbows may be installed in any vertical exhaust

vent system.

- Maintain a downward slope on the venting material of no more than 1/4” per

foot (6.3 mm) from the start of the vent system to the vent terminal. Do not apply downward slope to the appliance itself, it must be installed to be horizontally level.

COMMON EXHAUST VENTING OF APPLIANCES

A maximum of two units may be exhausted on a common 6” vent with the use of the factory supplied AC1120 4”x 4”x 6” (10 x 10 x 15 cm) exhaust T, for both side wall and roof venting. A suitably rated and certified high temperature exhaust cap must be used on the end of the 6” exhaust vent.

CAUTION: Units with common exhaust must be jointly controlled.

The addition of the AC1120 exhaust T incorporates a 90’ degree bend into the venting of each unit, deducting 5’ (1.5 m) from the allowable total of exhaust/intake venting for each commonly vented unit.

UNVENTED INSTALLATION (INTERLOCKED INDIRECT VENTING)

This appliance is certified for installation in structures that are not attached to a residential/domicile type building, without a direct exhaust vent connection to the outdoors, subject to the following criteria.

CANADA: It is required that the heaters(s) be electrically interlocked to dedicated

exhaust fan(s) by means of an Air Proving Switch. Exhaust fan(s) must be sized to create 300 cfm (8.5 cu m/min) exhaust for every 100,000 BTUH (30 kW), or a fraction thereof of total input, of installed equipment. Exhaust must be located as high as practicable in the structure above the level of the heater(s). Sufficient supply air must be provided. Consult the latest edition of CSA.B149.1 Section 8 for venting system and air supply requirements.

USA: Natural or mechanical means shall be provided to supply and exhaust at least

4ft3/ min/1000Btuh (0.38m3/min/kW) input of installed heaters. Some local codes may require an electrical interlock to a dedicated exhaust fan. Exhaust must be located as high as practicable in the structure above the level of the heater(s). Consult your local code and ANSI Z223.1 latest edition for all venting requirements and practices.

UNVENTED INSTALLATION IN AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS

When installed in a large and adequately ventilated space (agricultural building used only for brooding purposes) the heater may be installed un-vented without interlocking to an exhaust fan, and may be operated by discharging the combustion products directly into the space, subject to the approval of the authority having jurisdiction and provided that the maximum input of the appliance does not exceed 20 BTUH ft3 (0.2 kWm3) of the space in which the heater is located. An environment control system that maintains and monitors a controlled atmosphere need not be subject to these conditions.

COMBUSTION AIR INTAKE VENTING REQUIREMENTS

This appliance can draw combustion air from indoors, or utilize the factory installed air intake duct collar located on the blower assembly to duct combustion air in from outside.

CAUTION: When the appliance is located in a building with a negative air condition, or in a dusty or dirty atmosphere such as a welding shop, wood working shop, poultry barn or foundry, it is mandatory to duct combustion air from outdoors or from an area free of the negative pressure conditions / contaminated air.

Air intake duct must be a minimum of 4” (10 cm) in diameter, gas tight, and constructed of a suitable rigid material that will be able to withstand general environmental conditions.

Any 90 degree bends in the combustion air intake venting reduces the total allowable combined intake/exhaust venting by 5’ (1.5 m)

The air intake duct must not be directly connected to the appliance. It is mandatory that a heavy duty metal flexible duct be installed between the appliance air intake duct collar and the intake air ducting to allow for free expansion/contraction of the appliance. (See accessory AC1220 – Air Intake Flex Duct/Cap Kit)

Combustion air intake may be drawn either horizontally or vertically, and must be protected with a suitable screened cap to prevent pest/debris infiltration of the duct. Do not use termination caps that utilize a damper or flapper system. (See accessory AC1220 – Side wall air Intake Flex Duct/Cap Kit. Roof caps are field supplied.)

Air intake terminations shall not be located less than 3 ft (90 cm) above grade, and must be adequately protected from potential blockages due to snow/ice/debris accumulation.

Ensure adequate clearance around the air intake to allow sufficient combustion air supply to the heater. It is recommended that any single wall pipe containing cold air be insulated to prevent or reduce nuisance condensation on the duct surface.

Appliances may not share common air intake ducting except in cases where those appliances are jointly controlled.

In situation where indoor air is especially humid (e.g., carwash applications, food processing, etc.) it is recommended that combustion air be drawn from an alternate source. Ensure that all venting materials used are suitable to withstand high moisture conditions (e.g., stainless steel, ABS, PVC, etc.).

Never use a flexible duct as the only means of combustion air intake duct. Flexible ducts are meant to be used as a flexible transition from the burner assembly to a rigid duct only. Plastic flexible duct and light duty residential “dryer vent” type ducts are not suitable for this purpose.

TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING

Improper adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, injury or death. This heater must be installed and serviced only by a trained gas service technician.

If at the onset of ignition, no ignition occurs, the following should be checked.

 Check the line voltage (120 V). Ensure that polarity is correct and ground is solid.  Verify that 120V power supply voltage is adequate and consistent  Verify that the thermostat is functional, and that thermostat wire is intact.  Ensure that the appliance blower fan is operational.  Check for a blocked combustion air inlet or blockage in exhaust venting.  Inspect for a faulty air switch connection, or damaged air switch air inlet tubing.  Verify that the blocked flu air switch is operational.  Verify that the combustion air switch is operational.  Verify that the 24 Volt transformer is operational.

Having established power at the control, and still no ignition occurs then the control itself is suspect and should be changed.

If the igniter operates and there is still no ignition, then the gas valve is suspect. Be sure that the main gas supply is on, that the gas cock in the drop line is on, and that the shut off cock on the gas valve is open. If all gas cocks are open, then power to the gas valve should be checked. If there is power to the valve and it does not open then the valve should be replaced.

Continued lockout of the control may indicate that the flame sensor is not providing the signal back to the control (flame sensing circuit). If the sensor is in the proper position and the lockout condition continues, then the grounding connections of the burner, control, and transformer should be checked. Proper polarity must be maintained in the building wiring. Reversed polarity or insufficient supply voltage can cause intermittent ignition failure. If this does not solve the problem, then the control is suspect.

Ignition control modules are solid state; computerized devices that require consistent supply voltage while in operation.

See control specific troubleshooting on following pages.
