The products described in this manual are propane
direct-fired, forced air heaters. Propane forced air
heaters are primarily intended for use for temporary
heating of buildings under construction, alteration or
repair. Direct-fired means that all of the combustion
products of the heater enter the heated space. This
appliance is rated at 98% combustion eciency, but
does produce small amounts of carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate only
small amounts of carbon monoxide and so precautions
should be taken to provide proper ventilation. Failure
to provide proper ventilation in accordance with the
instructions in this manual can result in death.
People with breathing problems should consult a phy-
sician before using this heater. Early signs of carbon
monoxide poisoning resemble the flu. Symptoms of
improper ventilation / carbon monoxide poisoning are:
Headache • Dizziness • Nausea • Dry Mouth Sore
Throat • Burning of Nose and Eyes
If you experience any of these symptoms:
GET FRESH AIR AT ONCE! Have your heater serviced
and check for proper ventilation. Some people are
more aected by carbon monoxide than others. These
include: pregnant women, those with heart or lung
problems, anemia or those under the influence of alco-
hol or at high altitudes.

FOR: The temporary heating of adequately ventilated
buildings or structures under construction, alteration or
