18. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater.
They are not intended to be the primary heating appli-
ance.
19. Unvented gas heaters emit moisture into the living
area. In most homes of average construction, this
does not pose a problem. In houses of extremely
tight construction, additional mechanical ventilation is
recommended.
20. During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain
oils,lmsorbondingagents.Thesechemicalsarenot
harmful but may produce annoying smoke and smells
as they are burned off during the initial operation of the
appliance; possibly causing headaches or eye or lung
irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.
The initial break-in operation should last four hours to
properly cure logs and rock wool, with the burner at
the highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation by
opening windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate.
Any odors remaining after this initial break-in period
will be slight and will disappear with continued use.
21. Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000
feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each
1,000 feet above sea level. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code.
22. The appliance and its appliance main gas valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pres-
sures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
23. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its equipment shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa).
24. Do not use this room heater if any part has been under
water.Immediatelycallaqualiedservicetechnician
