Introduction
Please read our instructions before you install and use your heater. This will help you obtain the full value from this heater. It could
help you avoid needless service costs, if the answer to the problem is found within this instruction manual. If the answer is not found,
call our Customer Service Department at (909) 825-0993 before returning the heater to your supplier.
Today's homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insulation and new construction methods help
reduce heat loss in homes. Homeowners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air
in. During heating months, homeowners want their homes as airtight as possible. While it is good to make your home energy efficient,
your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and
ventilation.
Basic Description
Unvented heaters are shipped ready to install. No electric power
is needed for the heater except when the optional accessory
blower is used. Then, a standard three prong receptacle
(electrical outlet) is needed near the heater.
Always consult your local heating or plumbing inspector, building
department or gas utility company regarding regulations, codes or
ordinances which apply to the installation of an unvented heater.
The heater contains a single, multi-slot gas burner.
Combustion air is drawn to the heater from the room in which it is
installed. It must receive enough air to enable it to operate
properly. See page 7 of this instruction manual for more
information.
Convection causes room air to circulate from the floor upward
along the front, back and sides of the heater, and then back to the
room.
The heater cabinet is built of heavy-gauge steel treated for
corrosion resistance and has an enamel paint finish. The heater
controls are located on the top of the cabinet. All models are
equipped with AGA/CGA listed gas valves and pilots.
Piezo Ignition System
This unit has a piezo igniter. This system requires no matches,
batteries, or other sources to light the heater.
Thermostatic Heat Control
Thermostat models have a thermostat sensing bulb and a control
valve. This results in the greatest heat comfort. This can also
result in lower gas bills.
Safety Device
This unit has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensor shutoff
system (ODS). The ODS/pilot is a required feature for unvented
room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there is not
enough fresh air. When the normal oxygen content
(approximately 21 %) is reduced to 18%, the pilot and main
burner will turn off and cannot be relighted. When the pilot flame
is extinguished by wind or interruption of gas supply, it will also
turn off. Relighting is possible in this condition.
Basic Materials Needed
Pipe and fittings to make connections to heater.
Black iron gas pipe and fittings - 1/2".
Pipe Joint Compound resistant to L.P. gases.
Electrical supplies only required if accessory blower is being
installed.
Electrical wiring supplies as needed.
Minimum wire size is #14 gauge copper.
Basic Tools Needed
Pipe Wrenches
Screwdriver
6 ft. folding rule or tape
Level
Pipe cutting and threading tools
Gloves and safety glasses

Provisions for Adequate Combustion and
Ventilation Air
Supplying Adequate Ventilation
The following information will help you provide adequate
ventilation.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:
a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere
have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating
of one perm (6 x 10
openings gasketed or sealed and
b. weather stripping has been added on openable
windows and doors and
c. caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as
joints around window and door frames, between sole
plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between
wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical
and gas lines and at other openings.
If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must
provide additional fresh air.
-11
kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with
WARNING: If the area in which the heater may
be operated is of unusually tight construction,
provide adequate combustion and ventilation air
by one of the methods described in the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSIZ223.1, Section 5.3 or
applicable local codes.
Determining If You Need Additional Fresh Air.
Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus
any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation
grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x
height). Length x Width x Height=_______cu. ft. (volume
of space)
Example: Space size 22 ft. (length) x 18 ft. (width) x 8 ft.
(ceiling height) = 3,168 cu. ft. (volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with
grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the
total volume of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the
maximum Btu/hr the space can support, (volume of space)
divided by 50 cu. ft. = (Maximum Btu/hr the space can
support.
Example: 3,168 cu. ft. (volume of space) divided by 50
cu. ft. = 63.36 or 63,360 (maximum Btu/hr the space can
support)
3. Add the Btu/hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.
Gas water heater* _____________Btu/hr
Gas heater _______________Btu/hr
Vented gas heater ______________Btu/hr
Gas fireplace logs __________Btu/hr
Other gas appliances* +__________Btu/hr
Total =_____________Btu/hr
Example: Gas Heater 30,000 Btu/hr
Vent-free heater +39,000 Btu/hr
Total =69,000Btu/hr
*Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent
draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the
outdoors.
4. Compare the maximum Btu/hr the space can support with
the actual amount of Btu/hr used.
__________Btu/hr (maximum the space can suppot)
__________Btu/hr (actual amount of Btu/hr used)
Example: 63,360 Btu/hr (maximum the space can suppot)
69,000 Btu/hr (actual amount of Btu/hr used)
If you must provide additional fresh air. Your options are
as follows:
A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining
room. If the extra space provides necessary air,
remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills
between rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside
Building.
B. Install a lower Btu/hr heater, if lower Btu/hr size
makes room unconfined.
If the actual Btu/hr used is less than the maximum Btu/hr
the space can support, you will need no additional fresh air
ventilation.
Ventilation Air from Inside Building
This fresh air would come from an adjoining room. When
ventilating to an adjoining room, you must provide two
permanent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one
within 12" of the floor on the wall connecting the two spaces.
You can also remove door into adjoining room.
Ventilation Air from Outdoors
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You
must provide two permanent openings: one within 12" of the
ceiling and one within 12" of the floor. Connect these items
directly to the outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These
spaces include attics and crawl spaces. Follow the National
Fuel Gas Code NFPA 541 ANSI 2223. 1, Section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills
or ducts.
IMPORTANT. Do not provide openings for inlet or outlet air into
attic if attic has a thermostat-controlled power vent. Heated air
entering the attic will activate the power vent.
In Canada:
When combustion air supply is for the unvented room heater
only, it shall be sized at the rate of one (1) square inch per
1000 Btu/hr (.29KW) from outdoors. However, combustion air
is acceptable when available from the principal heat source
and sized to the current CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 requirements.
Where unvented equipment is installed in an area separated
from a combustion air supply by a door, then permanent
openings, grilles or louvers shall be provided. One shall be
within 18 inches (46 cm) from the ceiling, and one 18 inches
(46 cm) from the floor, sized to one (1) square inch per 1000
Btu (0.29 KW) to allow free movement of air with the source of
combustion air supply.
