WARNING
Fire Hazard. Do not run the heater vent into a common vent with any other appliance. Do
not run the Special Gas Vent into, through, or within any active vent such as a factory built
or masonry chimney.
NOTE: After installation, installer must check for correct and safe operation of the heater.
HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL VENTING FLEXIBLE DUCT
(See Figures 26, 27 & 29)
NOTE: THE ALLOWABLE VENT RUNS
FOR EACH VENT PIPE DIAMETER
ARE DIFFERENT AND CAN NOT BE
EXCEEDED.
It is recommended that vent runs over
5.4 m (18 ft) may need to be insulated to
reduce condensation related problems
and/or the use of a condensate trap in
the vent run close to the heater may be
necessary in certain installations such
as cold climates. Horizontal vents 1 m
(3 feet) or less in length do not require
a condensate tee. The Turbotemp heater
is suitable for through-the-wall venting.
See Table 9 for maximum permissible
Flexible Vent lengths.
!
CAUTION
Do NOT combine exhaust vent pipes
to a common exhaust vent in multiple
unit installations. Run separate vent
pipes.

MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AND CODE REQUIREMENTS.
Each 90° bend reduces the maximum horizontal vent run by 3.6 m (12 feet) and each 45°
bend in the vent run reduces the maximum vent run by 1.8 m (6 feet). See Table 2 (page 21)
for the maximum vent length using one 90° bend.
NOTE
After installation, installer must check for correct and safe operation of the heater.

CONTROL PANEL INDEXING
On an outdoor shelter installation, the exhaust discharges
into a vent pipe. Orient the heater so the vent pipe does not
interfere with adjustment of the operating controls. The control
panel located on the top panel can be rotated to any of the
three sides of the heater for easy access, see Figure 20.
1. Remove the bolts from the door panels. Remove both door

access panels.
2. Remove the four corner screws that secure the top panel.
Lift the top panel upward to remove the top panel.
3. Rotate the top panel to the desired position located at 90°
angles. Note that the control panel must NOT be located on
the side where the vent is located.
4. Replace the top panel down onto the side panels. Be sure
that there are no wires caught under the panel.
5. Secure the top panel using the four corner screws.
6. Reattach the door access panels.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK
After installation, the installer MUST test and check that
the heater is operating and functioning properly.
Some building codes require that the heater be anchored to the
equipment pad or platform to withstand high wind pressures
created during hurricanes. A Bolt Down Bracket Kit, is available
with anchor clamps designed to hold the unit to the equipment
pad in high wind conditions, see Figure 21. Installation of the
anchor clamps are recommended in all installations.
