1. DANGER: Failure to comply will result in severe personal injury or death
and/or property damage.
2. WARNING: Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury or death
and/or property damage.

Application and Kit Selection
The gas conversion kits in these instructions are for Model FT and Model SFT
heaters equipped with a single-stage valve. See pages 6 and 7 for conversion kit
components.
Be sure that the kit selected applies to the model and size being converted.
DANGER: The gas burner in this gas-fired equipment is designed
and equipped to provide safe and economically controlled
complete combustion. However, if the installation does not permit
the burner to receive the proper supply of combustion air,
complete combustion may not occur. The result is incomplete
combustion which produces carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas
that can cause death.
Safe operation of indirect-fired gas burning equipment requires
a properly operating vent system which vents all flue products
to the outside atmosphere. FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER
VENTING WILL RESULT IN A HEALTH HAZARD WHICH
COULD CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
On separated combustion Model SFT heaters, install either the
horizontal or vertical combustion air/vent system illustrated in
the heater installation manual, using the concentric adapter
supplied. For installations of either Model FT or Model SFT,
always comply with the combustion air requirements in the
installation codes and instructions. Model FT units installed in
a confined space must be supplied with air for combustion as
required by Code and in the heater installation manual.
Combustion air at the burner should be regulated only by
manufacturer-provided equipment. NEVER RESTRICT OR
OTHERWISE ALTER THE SUPPLY OF COMBUSTION AIR
TO ANY HEATER. MAINTAIN THE VENT SYSTEM IN
PROPERLY OPERATING CONDITION.
