GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Failure to comply with the general safety information may result in extensive property damage, severe personal injury or death.

This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas ﬁ tter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Installation must be made in accordance with local codes, or in absence of local codes with the latest edition of ANSI Standard Z223.1 (N.F.P.A. No.54) National Fuel Gas Code. All of the ANSI and NFPA

Standards referred to in these installation instructions are those that were applicable at the time the design of this appliance was certiﬁ ed. The ANSI Standards are available from the American National Standards Institute, Inc., www.ansi.org. The NFPA Standards are available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. These unit heaters are designed for use in airplane hangars when installed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA No. 409 and in public garages when installed in accordance with NFPA No. 88A and NFPA No. 88B.

If installed in Canada, the installation must conform with local building codes, or in absence of local building codes, with CSA-B149.1 “Installation Codes for Natural Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment” or CSA-B149.2 “Installation Codes for Propane Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment”. These Unit Heaters have been designed and certiﬁ ed to comply with CSA

2.6. Also see sections on installation in AIRCRAFT HANGARS and PUBLIC GARAGES.

Do not alter the unit heater in any way or damage to the unit and/or severe personal

injury or death may occur!

Disconnect all power and gas supplies before installing or servicing the heater. If the power disconnect is out of sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected application of power. Failure to do so could result

in fatal electric shock, or severe personal injury.

Ensure that all power sources conform to the requirements of the unit heater or damage to the unit will result!

Follow installation instructions CAREFULLY to avoid creating unsafe conditions. All external wiring must conform to applicable current local codes, and to the latest edition of the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70. In Canada, all external wiring must conform to the Canadian Electric Code, Part 1 CSA Standard C22.1. All wiring should be done and checked by a qualified electrician, using copper wire only. All gas connections should be made and leak-tested by a suitably qualiﬁ ed individual, per instructions in this manual. Also follow procedures listed on the “Gas Equipment Start-Up Sheet” located in this manual.

Use only the fuel for which the heater is designed (see rating plate). Using LP gas in a heater that requires natural gas, or vice versa, will create the risk of gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning and explosion.

Do not attempt to convert the heater for use with a fuel other than the one intended. Such conversion is dangerous, as it will

create the risks listed previously.

Make certain that the power source conforms to the electrical requirements of the heater.

Do not depend upon a thermostat or other switch as sole means of disconnecting power when installing or servicing heater. Always disconnect power at main circuit breaker as described above. Failure to do so could result in fatal electric shock.

Special attention must be given to any grounding information pertaining to this heater. To prevent the risk of electrocution, the heater must be securely and adequately grounded. This should be accomplished by connecting a grounded conductor between the service panel and the heater. To ensure a proper ground, the grounding means must be tested by a qualiﬁ ed electrician.

Do not insert ﬁ ngers or foreign objects into the heater or its air moving device. Do not block or tamper with the heater in any manner while in operation or just after it has been turned off, as some parts may be hot enough to cause injury.

This heater is intended for general heating applications ONLY. It must NOT be used in potentially dangerous locations such as ﬂ ammable, explosive, chemical-laden or wet atmospheres.

Do not attach ductwork to this product or use it as a makeup air heater. Such usage voids the warranty and will create unsafe operation.

In cases in which property damage may result from malfunction of the heater, a backup system or a temperature sensitive alarm should be used.

The open end of piping systems being purged shall not discharge into areas where there are sources of ignition or into conﬁ ned spaces UNLESS precautions are taken as follows: (1) by ventilation of the space, (2) control of purging rate, (3) elimination of all hazardous conditions. All precautions must be

taken to perform this operation in a safe manner!

INSTALLATION

Do not install unit heaters in corrosive or ﬂ ammable atmospheres! Premature failure of, or severe damage to the unit will result!

Avoid locations where extreme drafts can affect burner operation. Unit heaters must not be installed in locations where air for combustion would contain chlorinated, halogenated or acidic vapors. If located in such an environment, premature failure of the unit will occur!

Since the unit is equipped with an automatic gas ignition system, the unit heater must be installed such that the gas ignition control system is not directly exposed to water spray, rain or dripping water.

NOTICE: Location of unit heaters is related directly to the selection of sizes (refer to Figure 2). Basic rules are as follows:

Figure 2 - Heater Location

D2787

MOUNTING HEIGHT: Unit Heaters must be installed at a minimum of 8 feet (2.4m) above the ﬂ oor, measured to the bottom of the unit. At heights above 8 feet (2.4m), less efﬁ cient air distribution will result. Occasionally unit heaters must be mounted at heights of 12 to 16 feet (3.7 to 4.9m) in order to clear obstacles. When this is the case, it is advisable to use centrifugal blower unit heaters.

feet (2.4m) above the ﬂ oor in shops, ofﬁ ces and other sections of the hangar where aircraft are not stored or housed. Refer to current ANSI/NFPA No. 409, Aircraft Hangars. In Canada, installation is suitable in aircraft hangars when acceptable to the enforcing authorities

PUBLIC GARAGES: In repair garages, unit heaters must be at least 8 feet (2.4m) above the floor. Refer to the latest edition of NFPA No. 88B, Repair Garages.

In parking structures, unit heaters must be installed so that the burner ﬂ ames are located a minimum of 18 inches (457mm) above the ﬂ oor or protected by a partion not less than 18 inches (457mm) high. However, any unit heater mounted in a parking structure less than 8 ft. (2.4m) above the ﬂ oor must be equipped with an OSHA approved fan guard. Refer to the latest edition of NFPA 88A, Parking Structures.

In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the latest edition of CSA-B149 “Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment.”

AIR DISTRIBUTION: Direct air towards areas of maximum heat loss. When multiple heaters are involved, circulation of air around the perimeter is recommended where heated air ﬂ ows along exposed walls. Satisfactory results can also be obtained where multiple heaters are located toward the center of the area with heated air directed toward the outside walls. Be careful to avoid all obstacles and obstructions which could impede the warm air distribution patterns. Heat throw distances are presented in Table 2, and Figure 2A.

INSTALLATION (continued)

Unit heaters should not be installed to maintain low temperatures and/or freeze protection of buildings. A minimum of 50°F (10°C) thermostat setting must be maintained. If unit heaters are operated to maintain

lower than 50°F (10°C), hot ﬂ ue gases are cooled inside the heat exchanger to a point where water vapor (a ﬂ ue gas by- product) condenses onto the heat exchanger walls. The result is a mildly corrosive acid that prematurely corrodes the aluminized heat exchanger and can actually drip water down from the unit heater onto ﬂ oor surface. Additional unit heaters should be installed if a minimum 50°F (10°C) thermostat setting cannot be maintained.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION:The Unit Heater shall be installed in a location in which the facilities for ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of gas, proper venting, and the maintenance of ambient temperature at safe limits under normal conditions of use. The Unit Heater shall be located in such a manner

as not to interfere with proper circulation of air within the conﬁ ned space. When buildings are so tight that normal inﬁ ltration does not meet air requirements, outside air shall be introduced per Sections 1.3.4.2 and 1.3.4.3 of ANSI Z223.1 for combustion requirements. A permanent opening or openings having a total free area of not less than one square inch per 5,000 BTU/HR. (1.5 Kw) of total input rating of all appliances within the space shall be provided.

NOTICE: Unit heater sizing should be based on heat loss calculations where the unit heater output equals or exceeds heat loss. Heater output is approximately 80% of input BTU/HR. rating.

Make certain that the lifting methods used to lift the heater and the method of suspension used in the ﬁ eld installation of the heater are capable of uniformly supporting the weight of the heater at all times. Failure to heed this warning may result in property damage or personal injury!

Make certain that the structure to which the heater is mounted is capable of supporting its weight. Under no circumstances must the gas lines, the venting system or the electrical conduit be used to support the heater; or should any other objects (i.e. ladder, person) lean against the heater, gas lines, venting system or the electrical conduit for support.

Unit heaters must be hung level from side to side and from front to back, see Figures 1 through 4. Failure to do so will result in poor performance and or premature failure of the unit.

Insure that all hardware used in the suspension of each unit heater is more than adequate for the job. Failure to do so may result in extensive property damage, severe personal injury or death.

personal injury or death!

Refer to Figures 1 through 4, and dimensional data per Table 1 for suspension of units.

Figure 3A - Heater Mounting*

CLEARANCES: Each Gas Unit Heater shall be located

with respect to building construction and other equipment so as to permit access to the Unit Heater. Clearance between walls and the vertical sides of the Unit Heater shall be no less than 18 inches (457mm). A minimum clearance of 6 inches (152mm) must be maintained between the top of the Unit Heater and the ceiling. The bottom of the Unit Heater must be no less than 12 inches (305 mm) from any combustible. However, in order to ensure access to the burner compartment, a minimum distance of 21 inches (533 mm) is required. The distance between the flue collector and any combustible must be no less than 6 inches (152mm). Also see AIR FOR COMBUSTION and VENTING sections.

NOTICE: Increasing the clearance distances may be necessary if there is a possibility of distortion or discoloration of adjacent materials.

*All hanging hardware and wood is not included with the unit

(To be ﬁ eld supplied).

GAS SUPPLY PIPING

To avoid equipment damage or possible personal injury, do not connect gas piping to this unit until a supply line pressure/leak test has been completed. Connecting the unit before completing the pressure/leak test may damage the unit gas valve and result in a ﬁ re hazard.

Do not rely on a shut off valve to isolate the unit while conducting gas pressure/leak tests. These valves may not be completely shut off, exposing the unit gas valve to excessive pressure and damage.

PIPE SIZING

To provide adequate gas pressure at the gas unit heater, size the gas piping as follows:

1. Find the cu ft/hr by using the following formula:

NOTICE: If more than one gas unit heater is to be served by the same piping arrangement, the total cubic feet per hour input and length of pipe must be considered.

Input Cu ft/hr = Btu per Cu ft

2. Refer to Table 3. Match “Pipe Run in Feet” with appropriate “Gas Input - Cu Ft/Hr” ﬁ gure. This ﬁ gure can then be matched to the pipe size at the end of the column.

Example: It is determined that a 67 foot (20.4m) run of gas pipe is required to connect a 200 MBTU gas unit heater to a 1,000 Btu/cu. ft (0.29 kW) natural gas supply.

200,000 Btu/hr = 200 Cu ft/hr

1,000 Btu/cu ft

Using Table 3, a 1 inch pipe is needed.

NOTICE: See General Safety Information section for English/SI (metric) unit conversion factors.

NOTICE: If the gas unit heater is to be ﬁ red with LP gas, see Table 3 or consult the local LP gas dealer for pipe size information.

1. Determine the required Cu. Ft. / Hr. by dividing the rated heater input by 1000. For SI / Metric measurements: Convert unit Btu. / Hr. to kilowatts. Multiply the units input (kW) by 0.0965 to determine Cubic Meters / Hour. 2. FOR NATURAL GAS: Select the pipe size directly from the table. 3. FOR PROPANE GAS: Multiply the Cu. Ft. / Hr. (Cubic Meters per Hour) value by 0.633; then use the table. 4. Refer to the metric conversion factors listed in General Safety section for more SI unit measurements/conversions.

PIPE INSTALLATION

D3631C

1. Install the gas piping in accordance with applicable local codes.

2. Check gas supply pressure. Each unit heater must be connected to a manifold pressure and a gas supply capable of supplying its full rated capacity (refer to Table 4). A field LP tank regulator must be used to limit the supply pressure to maximum of 14 in. W.C. (3.5 kPa). All piping should be sized in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI Standard Z223.1, National Fuel Gas Code; in Canada, according to CSA-B149. See Tables 1 and 3 for correct gas supply piping size. If gas pressure is excessive on natural gas applications, install a pressure regulating valve in the line upstream from the main shutoff valve.

3. Adequately support the piping to prevent strain on the gas manifold and controls.

4. To prevent the mixing of moisture with gas, run the take-off piping from the top, or side, of the main.

5. Standard gas duct furnaces, optional two-stage units, and hydraulic modulating units are supplied with a combination valve which includes:

(a) Manual “A” valve (b) Manual “B” valve

Pipe directly in to combination valve (see Figure 4).

6. A 1/8 in. N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the appliance.

7. Provide a drip leg in the gas piping near the gas unit heater. A ground joint union and a manual gas shutoff valve should be installed ahead of the unit heater controls to permit servicing. The manual main shutoff valve must be located external to the jacket. See Figure 4.

8. Make certain that all connections have been adequately doped and tightened.

Do not overtighten the inlet gas piping into the valve. This may cause stresses that would crack the valve!

NOTICE: Use pipe joint sealant resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases regardless of gas conducted.

Check all pipe joints for leakage using a soap solution or other approved method. Never use an open flame or severe personal injury or death may occur.

Figure 4 - Pipe Installation, Standard Controls

Never use an open ﬂ ame to detect gas leaks. Explosive conditions may exist which would result in personal injury or death.

The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system 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 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

All unit heaters must be vented! All venting installations shall be in accordance with the latest edition of Part 7, venting of Equipment of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or applicable provisions of local building codes for natural or power vented units.

Power vented units are designed to be used with single wall vent pipe utilizing horizontal or vertical venting arrangements (see Figures 6, 7 and 8). These arrangements may terminate external to the building using either a single wall or double wall (Type B) vent. See Figures 6 thru 10 for special installation requirements regarding these venting conditions.

CARBON MONOXIDE! Your venting system must not be blocked by any snow, snow drifts, or any foreign matter. Inspect your venting system to ensure adequate ventilation exists at all times! Failure to heed these warnings could result in Carbon Monoxide Poisoning (symptoms include grogginess, lethargy, inappropriate tiredness, or flu-like symptoms).

Do not use a type B (double wall) vent internally within the building on our power vented units!

The venting system for these appliances shall terminate at least four feet (1.2m) below, four feet (1.2m) horizontal from, or one foot (0.3m) above any door, window, or gravity air inlet into any building.

Through the wall vents for these appliances shall NOT terminate over public walkways, or over an area where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance or hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.

The vent pipe equivalent length must be 5 ft. (1.5m) minimum and must not exceed 50 ft. (15.2m). Equivalent length is the total length of straight sections PLUS 15 ft. (4.6m) for each 90 degree elbow, 8 ft. (2.4m) for each 45 degree elbow, and 10 ft. (3.0m) for the vent cap.

Maintain 6 in. (152mm) between vent pipe and combustible materials. A minimum of 12 in. (305mm) of straight pipe is required from the venter outlet before installing an elbow in the vent system. An elbow should never

be attached directly to the venter!

VENTING (continued)

Use single wall pipe constructed of 26 gauge galvanized steel or material of equivalent durability and corrosion resistance for the vent system. For installation in Canada, use pipe constructed from 0.025 inch thick aluminum or

0.018 inch thick stainless steel.

Never use a pipe of a diameter other than that specified in Table 1! Never use PVC or other nonmetallic pipe for venting! To do so may result in serious damage to the unit or severe personal injury or death!

Any run of single wall vent pipe passing through an unheated space must be insulated with and insulation suitable to 550°F.

The vent terminal must be installed with a minimum clearance of four feet (1.2m) from electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment.

Seal ALL vent pipe joints and seams to prevent leakage. Use General Electric RTV-108 or DowCorning RTV-732 silicone sealant (or equivalent); or 3M #425 aluminum foil tape (or equivalent).

The vent system must be installed to prevent collection of condensate. Vertical vent pipes should be equipped with condensate drains. Pitch horizontal pipes downward 1/4 in. per foot (21mm per meter) toward outlet for condensate drainage.

Horizontal portions of the venting system shall be supported at maximum intervals of four feet (1.2m) to prevent sagging (in Canada, support at 3 feet (1m) minimum intervals).

Figure 9 Adaptor Installation

Insulate single wall vent pipe exposed to cold air or running through unheated areas.

Each unit must have an individual vent pipe and vent terminal per furnace section! Each unit MUST

NOT be connected to other vent systems or to a chimney.

Horizontal Venting: Units are shipped from the factory set up for vertical venting. To convert the power venter for horizontal venting, remove the shipping support bracket; refer to Figures 6 through 10 and 17, and follow this procedure:

1. Hold power venter motor in position.

2. Remove the three Phillips-head screws from the motor adaptor plate.

3. Remove the three screws which connect the

power venter stack to the power venter housing.

4. Rotate the power venter housing to the horizontal position.

5. Replace screws accordingly.

NOTICE: The motor, pressure switch, and junction box bracket MUST remain located as shipped from the factory. Rotate only the blower housing! If the power venter housing is to be moved to the right horizontal position, the junction box must be rotated 90 degrees CCW to clear the connection. To do this, remove all wires, conduit and conduit connector from the junction box, noting location of wires. Move box, using holes provided. Move 7/8" plug from bottom of box to side. Reconnect all wires according to the unit's wiring diagram.

The following instructions apply to Canadian installations in addition to installation and operating instructions:

1. Installation must conform with local building codes, or in absence of local codes, with current CSA-B149.1 Installation Codes for Natural Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, or CSA-B149.2, Installation Codes for Propane Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment.

2. Any references to U.S. standards or codes in these instructions are to be ignored and the applicable Canadian standards or codes applied.

3. The reducer must be ﬁ eld supplied for 100, 125, 150 and 175 MBH unit sizes.

4. If using a metal vent system under positive gauge pressure in Canada, a slip ﬁ t vent connection must be secured by at least two corrosionresistant screws, or other mechanical locking means.

5. The vent shall not terminate – (a) Less than 6 ft. (1.8m) from a combustion air inlet of another appliance. (b) Less than 3 ft. (1m) from any other building opening or any gas service regulator. (c) Directly above a gas utility meter or service regulator.

OPERATION

POWER VENTED PROPELLER UNITS

INTERMITTENT (SPARK) PILOT IGNITION

EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS (See Figure 11):

1. The unit heater is equipped with a power venter

system consisting of a power venter motor and blower, pressure switch, and sealed ﬂ ue collector in place of the conventional draft diverter.

The addition of external draft hoods or power ventors is not permitted. Addition of such devices may cause severe unit malfunction or failure!

2. The power venter motor is energized by the room thermostat on a call for heat. The pressure switch measures the ﬂ ow through the vent system and energizes the indirect spark ignition system when the ﬂ ow is correct.

The pressure switch MUST NOT be bypassed. The unit MUST NOT be ﬁ red unless the power ventor is operating. An unsafe condition could result.

3. The indirect spark ignition system consists of an ignition control module, a dual combination valve, and a spark-ignited pilot burner. When the pressure switch closes, the pilot valves opens and a spark is generated to light the pilot burner. When ﬂ ame sensing circuit senses that the pilot ﬂ ame is established, the main gas valve is opened to supply gas to the main burners. When the thermostat is satisﬁ ed, the vent system is deenergized and both valves are closed to stop all ﬂ ow of gas to the unit.

4. The limit switch interrupts the ﬂ ow of electric current to the main gas valve in case the heater becomes overheated.

5. The fan switch delays the operation of the fan until the heater is warmed, then keeps the fan running after the gas has been turned off until the useful heat has been removed. The startup fan delay must not

exceed 90 seconds from a cold start.

6. The wall thermostat (supplied optionally) is a temperature sensitive switch which operates the vent system and the ignition system to control the temperature of the space being heated. It must be mounted on a vibration free, vertical surface away from air currents, in accordance with the instructions furnished with the thermostat (also refer to Electrical Section).

START-UP (Also refer to lighting instruction plate equipped on the unit)

1. Open the manual valve supplying gas to the unit heater, and with the union connection loose, purge air from the gas line. Tighten the union and check for gas leaks using a soapy water solution only.

Never use an open ﬂ ame to detect gas leaks. Explosive conditions may exist which could result in personal injury or death.

Before attempting to light or relight pilot, wait 5 minutes to allow gas which may have accumulated in the burner compartment to escape. Failure to do so could cause the accumulated gas to ignite rapidly, leading to personal injury or death.

2. Open the manual valve on the unit heater.

3. Turn ON electrical power.

4. The unit should be under the control of the thermostat. Turn the thermostat to the highest point and determine that the power venter motor starts, and the pilot and main burners ignite. Turn the thermostat to the lowest point and determine that the power venter motor shuts off and the pilot and main burners are extinguished.

5. If pilot adjustment is required, remove the pilot adjustment seal cap and adjust the pilot screw to obtain proper ﬂ ame. Clockwise rotation decreases pilot ﬂ ame size. Replace the cap.

6. Turn the thermostat to the desired position.

7. See Gas Input Rate and Adjustments sections.

SHUT DOWN

1. Turn the valve selector knob to the “OFF” position.

2. Turn off the electricity.

3. To relight, follow the “start-up” instructions.

See Figure 11 for parts/identiﬁ cation.

Check the gas input rate as follows (Refer to general safety section for metric conversions/SI units):

Never overfire the unit heater, as this may cause unsatisfactory operation or shorten the life of the heater.

1. Turn off all gas appliances that use gas through the same meter as the unit heater.

2. Turn gas on to the unit heater.

3. Clock the time in seconds required to burn one cubic foot of gas by checking the gas meter.

4. Insert the time required to burn one cubic foot of gas into the following formula and compute the input rate.

3600 (Sec. Per Hr.) x Btu/Cu. Ft = Input Rate

For example, assume the Btu content of one cubic foot of gas equalled 1000 and that it takes 18 seconds to burn one cubic foot of gas.

3600 x 1000 = 200,000 Btu/Hr.

NOTICE: If the computation exceeds or is less than 95 percent of the gas Btu/hr. input rating (see Speciﬁ cations), adjust the gas pressure.

GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS

Adjust the gas pressure as follows:

1. NATURAL GAS: Optimum results are obtained when the unit heater is operating at its full input rating with the manifold pressure of 3.5 inches W.C. (0.9 kPa). Adjustment of the pressure regulator is not normally necessary since it is preset at the factory. However, ﬁ eld adjustment may be made as follows: (a.) Attach manometer at pressure tap plug adjacent

to the control outlet.

(b.) Remove regulator adjustment screw cap,

located on combination gas valve.

(c.) With a small screwdriver, rotate the adjustment

screw counterclockwise to decrease or clock- wise to increase pressure. Do not force beyond stop limits.

(d.) Replace regulator adjustment screw cap.

2. PROPANE GAS: An exact manifold pressure of 10.0 inches W.C. (2.5 kPa) must be maintained for proper operation of the unit heater. If the unit is equipped with a pressure regulator on the combination gas valve, follow steps “a” through “d” above. If the unit is not so equipped, the propane gas supply system pressure must be regulated to attain this manifold operating pressure.

3. The adjusted manifold pressure should not vary more than 10% from the pressure specified in Table 5.

PRIMARY AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT

After the unit has been operating for at least 15 minutes, adjust the primary air flow to the burners. Turn the friction-locked, manually-rotated air shutters clockwise to close, or counterclockwise to open (see Figures 11, 12, 14 and 16).

For correct air adjustment, close the air shutter until yellow tips in the flame appear. Then open the air shutter to the point just beyond the position where yellow tipping disappears. Refer to Figure 12 .

NOTICE: There may be momentary and spasmodic orange flashes in the flame. This is caused by the burning of airborne dust particles, and not to be confused with the yellow tipping, which is a stable or permanent situation when there is insufficient primary air.

Figure 12 - Main Burner Flames

PILOT ADJUSTMENT

1. Remove the pilot adjustment cap.

2. Adjust the pilot screw to provide a properly sized ﬂ ame.

3. A proper pilot flame is a soft steady flame that envelops 3/8 to 1/2-inch (9.5 to 12.7 mm) of the ﬂ ame sensor.

4. Replace the pilot adjustment cap.

If the manifold pressure requires minor adjustment, remove the cap from the pressure regulator and turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase the pressure, or counterclockwise to decrease the pressure. The adjusted manifold pressure should not vary more than 10% from the pressures speciﬁ ed in Table 5.

PERIODIC SERVICE

NOTICE: The heater and vent system should be checked once a year by a qualiﬁ ed technician.

All Maintenance/Service information should be recorded accordingly on the Inspection Sheet provided in this manual.

Open all disconnect switches and disconnect all electrical and gas supplies and secure in that position before servicing unit. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death from electrical shock.

Gas tightness of the safety shutoff valves must be checked on at least an annual basis.

To check gas tightness of the safety shut-off valves, turn off the manual valve upstream of the appliance combination control. Remove the 1/8 inch pipe plug on the inlet side of the combination control and connect a manometer to that tapping. Turn the manual valve on to apply pressure to the combination control. Note the pressure reading on the manometer, then turn the valve off. A loss of pressure indicates a leak. If a leak is detected, use a soap solution to check all threaded connections. If no leak is found, combination control is faulty and must be replaced before putting appliance back in service.

Should maintenance be required, perform the following inspection and service routine:

1. Inspect the area near the unit to be sure that there is no combustible material located within the minimum clearance requirements listed in this manual.

Under no circumstances should combustible material be located within the clearances specified in this manual. Failure to provide proper clearance could result in personal injury or equipment damage from ﬁ re.

2. Turn off the manual gas valve and electrical power to the gas unit heater.

3. To clean or replace the main burners, remove the bottom panel and compress the spring by moving the burner toward the manifold. Slide the opposite end of the burner downward from the locating slot while retaining spring is still compressed. Pull the burners away from the heat.

4. With the burners removed, wire brush the inside surfaces of the heat exchanger.

5. Remove any dirt, dust, or other foreign matter from the burners using a wire brush and/or compressed air. Ensure that all parts are unobstructed. Inspect and clean pilot burner if necessary.

6. Reassemble the gas unit heater by replacing all parts in reverse order.

7. Complete the appropriate unit start-up procedure as given in the “Operation” section of this manual (see lighting instruction plate on the unit).

8. Check the burner adjustment. See the “Primary Air Shutter Adjustment” section of this manual.

9. Check all gas control valves and pipe connections for leaks.

10. Check the operation of the automatic gas valve by lowering the setting of the thermostat, stopping the operation of the gas unit heater. The gas valve should close tightly, completely extinguishing the ﬂ ame on the main burners.

11. Inspect and service the motor/fan assemblies. To maintain efficient air flow, inspect and clean the fan blades and guard to prevent buildup of foreign matter.

12. Check lubrication instructions on the motor. If oiling is required, add 3 to 4 drops of electric motor oil as follows: (a.) Light Duty - After 3 years or 25,000 hours of

operation.

(b.) Average Duty - Annually after 3 years or 8,000

hours of operation.

(c.) Heavy Duty - Annually after 1 year or at least

every 1500 hours of operation.

Never over oil the motor or pre-

mature failure may occur!

13. Check and test the operational functions of all safety devices supplied with your unit.
