installer. It is essential that the contractor, the sub-
contractor, or the owner identifies the presence of
combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or
halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the
premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com-
pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air
supply of the burner, the life span of the heater compo-
nents will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must
be provided to the burners whenever the presence of
these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if
the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.
