- 1. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
- 2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch, as required by the NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1 - latest revision, National Fuel Gas Code (US) or Standard CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code (Canada) and these instruction...
- 3. Close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliance(s) connected to the venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathr...
- 4. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so that the appliance will operate continuously.
- 5. For any appliance having a draft hood, test for draft hood appliance spillage at the draft hood relief opening after five minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
- 6. After it has been determined that each appliance connected to the venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-burning appliances to their previous conditions...
- 7. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the venting system must be corrected by a contractor qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired equipment or your local gas supplier. If the venting must be resized, use ap...

- SECTION 13: Servicing
- 1. Open the hinged door and remove from the hinges. Set door aside. See Page 46, Section 15.2.
- 2. Remove burner side panel. Electrode and flame probe should remain attached. See Page 47, Section 15.3.
- 3. Remove burner assembly from cabinet via four screws, two on top and two on bottom. Clean any deposits from the main burner which may have formed in the injectors or venturi of the burner.
- 4. Check condition of ignition electrode and flame probe. Clean off any deposits which may have formed, check condition of ceramic insulators. Replace as required. See Page 47, Section 15.3.

DANGER
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect electric before service or
maintenance.
Heater must be connected to a properly
grounded electrical source.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death or electrical shock.
All heater models require constant 120 V / 1Ø / 60
Hz power supply. Check heater serial plate for
electrical rating for proper circuit sizing. For
servicing, a disconnect switch of proper electrical
rating should be installed in the vicinity of the heater.
All heaters are equipped with thermostat
connections suit
able to power a 24 V thermostat.
Heater must be wired and electrically grounded in
accor
dance with local codes. In the absence of local
codes in accordance with: United States: refer to
National Electr
ical Code
®
NFPA 70 - latest revision;
Canada: refer to Canadian Electrical Code CSA
C22.1 Part I - latest revision.
10.1 Positioning Thermostats
A room thermostat should be mounted on a
vibr
ation-free wall or column at a height of
approximately 5' (1.5 m) from the floor to measure
the ambient temperature. It should be clear of both
cold drafts and the direct path of warm air from the
heater.
Avoid mounting thermostat on outside walls or in
ar
eas directly exposed to radiant heat or sunlight.
Install wall tag in a visible location near thermostat
See Page 5, Section 2.1 for wall tag details.
10.1.1 Fan Control
The heater’s axial fan can be used during the off-
season f
or air circulation. A low-voltage
programmable thermostat with a fan switch (P/N
90425400) must be used.
For thermostat connection details, See Page 25,
Section 10.2. For the use of multiple heaters on one
thermostat, See Page 26, Section 10.3 and Page 27,
Section 10.4.
