Improper use of this heater can result in serious bodily injury or death due to hazards of fire, explosion, electrical shock or
carbon monoxide poisoning. When used without fresh air, this heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless,
poisonous gas. CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO DEATH! Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble
the flue with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may not be working properly. Get fresh
air at once, and have the heater serviced. Some people such as pregnant women, persons with heart or lung disease,
anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, and those at higher altitudes are more affected by carbon monoxide than others.
Retain this manual for future reference. It is your guide to many years ofa proper and safer operation of the heater.

COMBUSTION AND VENTILA TION AIR
REQUIREMENT WORKSHEET
The purpose of this worksheet is to help you determine if you are planning to install this heater in Qn
"unconfined" or Q "confined" space. An "unconfined" space is one that is large enough to meet all the
combustion and ventilation air requirements of all the fuel burning appliances to be in operation in this space.
No additional air requirements are needed. A "confined" space is one that i!...!:!Q! large enough to meet the
combustion and ventilation air requirements for all the fuel burmng appliances in that space. As a result,
additional air is required in this space to meet the appliance needs. Check with your installer on ways to
accomplish this, or use a smaller Btu/hr input heater.
Determine the volume ot the space in which the heater is to be installed. Include adjoining
rooms with doorless passageways. Example: 24' (long) x 16' (wide) x 8' (high) :: 3072 tf.
STEP 1:
Ff
LENGTH x WIDTH x HEIGHT =
Multiply the volume of the space (calculated in Step 1) by 20 BTU/Hr to determine the
maximum BTU/Hr that the space can support without additional combustion and ventilation air
provided.
STEP 2:
Btu/hr
x 20 Btulhr =
Result from Step 1
STEP 3:
Add the Btu/hr inputs of all fuel burnin~ appliances in this space. .tfQlg: DO NOT include
Direct-Vent gas appliances because these have sealed combustion systems that draw
combustion air from outdoors. Examples of appliances to consider include: gas ranges, gas
water heaters, gas logs, kerose:ne heaters, etc.

STEP 4: Compare the results from Step 2 and Step 3.
If the result from Step 2 is ~reater then the result from Step 3, the area where the heater is to be
installed can be classified as an "unconfined space." This means that the space is capable of handling the
combustion and ventilation air requirements of the existing fuel burning appliance(s) and the proposed
heater. '
-If the result from Step 2 is ~ than the result from Step 3, the area where the heater is to be installed is

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF LP-GAS
Propane (LP-Gas) is a flammable gas which can cause fires
and explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and
colorless. You may not know all the following safety
precautions which can protect both you and your family
from an accident. Read them carefully now, then review
them point by point with the members of your household.
Someday when there may not be a minute to lose,
everyone's safety will depend on knowing exactly what to
do. If, after reading the following information, you feel you
still need more information, please contact your gas supplier.
LP-GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because
of the odorant put in the LP-Gas. That's your signal to go into immediate action!
.Do not operate electric switches, light matches, use your
\ phone. Do not do anything that could ignite the gas.
.Get everyone out of the building, vehicle, trailer, or area.
Do that IMMEDiATELY.
.Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.
.lP-Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas
such as basements. When you have reason to suspect
a gas leak, keep out of basements and other low areas.
Stay out until firefighters declare them to be safe.
.Use your neighbor's phone and call a trained LP-Gas
service person and the fire department. Even though you
may not continue to smell gas, do not turn on the gas
again. Do not re-enter the building, vehicle, trailer, or
area.
.Finally, let the service man and firefighters check for
escaped gas. Have them air out the area before you
return. Properly trained LP-Gas service people should
repair the leak, then check and relight the gas appliance
for you.
NO ODOR DETECTED -ODOR FADE
Odorants in LP-Gas also are subject to oxidation. This fading
can occur if there is rust inside the storage tank or in iron
gas pipes.
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell
the odor of the chemical stench put into the gas. You must
find out if you can smell the odorant in propane. Smoking
can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an odor for
a time can affect your sensitivity or ability to detect that
odor. Sometimes other odors in the area mask the gas odor.
People may not smell the gas odor or their minds are on
something else. Thinking about smelling a gas odor can
make it easier to smell.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or
into walls, masonry and other materials and fabrics in a
room. That will take some of the odorant out of the gas,
reducing its odor intensity.
LP-Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor intensity
could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air,
there may be more odor at lower levels. Always be
sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you detect any odor,
treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as
instructed earlier.
The odorant in LP-Gas is colorless, and it can fade under
some circumstances. For example, if there is an
underground leak, the movement of the gas through soil can
filter the odorant.
SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER
...
suspected to exist, a periodic sniff test of the gas i,s
advisable. 11 you have any question about the gas odor,
call your lP-Gas dealer. A periodic sniff test of the lPGas is a good sa1ety measure under any condition.
11, at any time, you do not smell the lP-Gas odorant and
you think you should, assume you have a leak. Then
take the same immediate action recommended above
for the occasion when you do detect the odoi'ized lP-
Gas.
If you experience a complete" gas out" (the container is
under no vapor pressure), turn the tank valve off
immediately; If the container valve is le1t on, the
container may draw in some air through openings such
as pilot light orifices. 11 this occurs, some new internal
rusting could occur. If the valve is left open, then treat
the container as a new tank. Always be sure your
container is under vapor pressure by turning it off at the
container be1ore it goes completely empty or having it
re1illed~be10re it is completely empty.
..
learn to recognize the odor of lP-Gas. Your local lPGas Dealer can give you a "Scratch and Sniff"
pamphlet. Use it to find out what the propane odor
smells like. If you suspect that your lP-Gas has a weak
or abnormal odor, call your lP-Gas Dealer.
If you are not qualified, do not light pilot tights, perform
service, or make adjustments to appliances on. the lP-
Gas system. If you are qualified, consciously think
about the odor oflP-Gas prior to and while lighting pilot
lights or performing service of making adjustments.
Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house has a
musty smell that can cover up the lP-Gas odor. Do not
try to light pilot lights, area where the conditions are
such that you may not detect the odor if there has been
a leak of lP-Gas.
Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust of adsorption on
walls of new cylinders aAd tanks. is possible.
Therefore, people should be particularly alert and careful
when new tanks or cylinders are placed in service. Odor
fade can occur in new tanks, or reinstalled old tanks, if
they are filled and allowed to set too long before
refilling. Cylinders and tanks which have been out of
service for a time may develop internal rust which will
which will cause odor fade. If such conditions are

York, New York 10018, or the National Fire Protection
Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 0~269.
"'WARNING: When using lP gas, this h~ater requires an
external regulator (not supplied) located between the
heater and lP Supply Tank. This regulator must be
supplied by the installer to reduce incoming lP Gas
pressure to a maximum of 14 inches of water column.
Under no circumstances should this heater ever be
hooked directly to an LP supply tank. IMPORTANT:
Pr~ssure Regulator must be held with wrench when
connecting gas piping and/or fittings to Pressure

GAS SUPPLY CHECK
A union must be provided directly at the gas inlet to
the heater. A manual gas valve must be provided
upstream of the union. This will alk>w you to shut off
the gas supply to the heater if it is necessary to
remove it for service purposes.
The appliance and its appliance main gas valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of Y2 psig. (3.45kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its equipment shutoff vaJve
during any pressure testing of the g as supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than Y2 psig.
(3.45kPa).
The connectors must be checked and cleaned before
assembling and then wrenched up tight for a gas tight
connection. Apply a soap and water solution to all
joints and watch for bubbles to check forgasle.aks.
NEVER USE ANY OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR
GAS LEAKS.
HEATER MAINTENANCE -PERIODIC VISUAL CHECK
The burner must glow evenly over the entire surface
when operating' correctly. The pilot flame must burn
with a clear blue flame. See Figure 3.
OXYGEN DEPLETION SENSOR (ODS) SERVICING
Dust and dirt may effect heater performance.
This heater draws air into the bottom of it during normal
operation. In the process, dust and dirt will also be
drawn into the heater. The frequency of needed
cleaning will depend on how and where the heater is
used. At a minimum, you should clean the heater at
least once a year, at the beginning of the heating
season.
If your pilot will riSt stay lit, try cleaning it. Use a can of
compressed air, such as is used to clean a computer, to
blow dust out of the pilot assembly. Sometimes just
blowing air back through the pilot will get rid of tRe dirt.
If that fails to solve the problem, remove the wire clip
that holds the metal strip onto the pilot assembly.
Remove the cover and blow any dust out. Reassemble
and check for proper operation.
If that fails, the pilot assembly should be removed and air
blown through the assembly and gas line as shown in
Figure 4. To prevent damage to this assembly, follow
the instructions below for disassembly and assembly of
the ODS for cleaning. WARNING: Never use needles,
wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean the pilot
orifice. This will only damage the calibrated ruby orifice
(about the size of the head of a pin) which controls the
pilot gas flow.
Grab nut A with an open-end wrench and loosen nut B
from the pilot tubing. Blow air pressure through the
holes as indicated in Figure 4. This should blowout any
foreign materials. To reassemble, tighten nut B by
grabbing nut A with the open-end wrench. NOTE: When
the heater is reassembled, always check for gas leaks as
outlined in the Gas Supply section of these instructions.
