WARNING: Installation of
this appliance should be done
by a qualified service person
well trained in the installation
of such appliances. You will
also need a building permit from
your local Building and Safety
Commissioner before installing
this appliance; otherwise your
insurance company may not
cover this appliance.
NOTICE: This appliance is not
intended to be used as a primary
source of heat.
To determine the safest and most efficient
location for your appliance, you must take into
consideration the following guidelines:
1. The location must allow for proper clear-
ances (see Clearances, page 7).
2. Consider a location where heat output
would not be affected by drafts, air con-
ditioning ducts, windows or doors.
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters will make installation easier.
Figure 1 shows a plan view of a few com-
mon locations.
Flush installations.are.recommended.where.
living space is limited or at a premium and
since the space required to enclose the ap-
pliance would be located beyond an outside
wall, this would also reduce the cutting of
joists, roof rafters and such. Check local
codes for any restrictions.
Projected installations. can. extend. any.
distance into the room. A projection may
be ideal for a new addition on an existing,
finished wall.

CAUTION: Do not connect
appliance before pressure test-
ing gas piping. Damage to gas
valve may result and an unsafe
condition may be caused.
The appliance and it's 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).
For the purpose of input adjustment two
pressure taps (for IN and OUT pressures)
are provided on the gas control valve for test
gauge connections to the appliance.
Corner installations make use of space
that may not normally be used and provides
a wider and more efficient range for radiant
heat transference.
Internal wall installations provide a discreet
option for room separation and can also be
ideal as an addition to an existing wall.
