  • Page 4: Connecting The Cylinder

    The installation of this heater for use with natural gas shall conform with local codes or, in the absence of codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z233.1/NFPA 54 and the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1-00. This heater must be installed by a qualified gas technician, following local codes published by the authority having jurisdiction.
  • Page 5 PIPING: This heater must be installed by a qualified gas technician following local codes published by the authority having jurisdiction. Sizing of supply piping must be determined using the length of pipe run as well as total btuh rating of the appliance(s). Appropriate piping tables must be used to determine size of supply piping dependant on the length of run from source.
  • Page 6 ELECTRICAL: WARNING Electrical Grounding Instructions This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. 115v supply must be available. Please note that the heater requires 15 amps for proper operation.

    IF HEATER FAILS TO START: Press manual reset button at rear of burner. Check gas pressure supply. Supply and manifold pressure must follow those on rating plate. Ensure proper power supply and extension cord is being used. If heater fails to ignite after 3 attempts, call your supplier for service. SAFE OPERATION PRECAUTIONS: For use with propane or natural gas only.
  • Page 12: Firing Rate

    COMBUSTION AIR ADJUSTMENTS: NOTE: Proper combustion air adjustment must be achieved using a certified combustion analyzer to ensure complete combustion. The air adjustment should be made to achieve 10% CO on natural gas and 12% CO on propane. SETTING THE AIR ADJUSTMENT PLATE A) Regulation of the combustion air flow is made by adjustment of the manual AIR ADJUSTMENT PLATE (1) after loosening the FIXING SCREWS (2 and 3).
  • Page 13 TEMPERATURE FEELER GAUGE ADJUSTMENT (ATTACHED TO FAN SWITCH) The temperature feeler gauge is required to be always touching the heater exchanger. The temperature feeler gauge controls the air flow over the fan switch, which eliminates any unnecessary fan cycling. The temperature feeler gauge can be adjusted for different outside temperatures, by rotating the location of the temperature feeler gauge holes.
  • Page 14: Burner Dimensions

    In extreme cold conditions, cover the holes on the temperature feeler gauge using foil tape. Ensure that the temperature feeler gauge is readjusted for warmer weather conditions. Failure to do so may result in burning out fan switches – not covered under warranty. PRINCIPAL BURNER COMPONENTS 1.
