WARNING
in USA; B149.1 in Canada) and as indicated in this manual.
WARNING
During start up, the heating of material coatings used in the production process of tubes and
reflectors will create smoke during the initial period of operation. This condition is normal and
temporary .
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation to adequately clear any smoke from the space.
Notify site and safety personnel to ensure that alarm systems are not unduly activated.
IMPORTANT
Infrared radiant (IR) heating system provide comfort with the effect of radiant heat and ambient
air heat.
If your IR system is controlled with a thermostat (TruTemp or ThermoControl Plus) that senses
radiant heat, then set the thermostat to the desired comfort temperature (ie: 65°; 68°; 20°C).
If your IR system is controlled with a standard 24V or 120V thermostat that senses only air tem-
perature, then start with a thermostat setting that is 5° to 7°F (3° to 5°C) lower than the desired
comfort temperature. Some trial and error setting may be required to 'fine tune' the comfort tem-
perature that best suits your site and provides most economical operation.

Heater Expansion

It is a normal condition that during heat-up and cool-down a tube
heater will expand and contract. Allowances for heater expansion
must be made in the gas connection, venting and combustion air
ducting. Improper installation, alteration, or adjustment can result in
property damage, injury or death.

Gas Connection

Improper installation, connection, or adjustment can result in property
damage, toxic gases, asphyxiation, injury or death. Using an ap-
proved flexible gas connector in the USA or Type 1 hose connector in
Canada, the gas supply to the heater must be connected and tested

Venting

Inadequate venting of a heater may result in asphyxiation, carbon
monoxide poisoning, injury or death. This heater may be directly or
indirectly vented from the space. Venting must be in accordance with
all local, state, provincial, and national codes (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
