Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual
Unvented Natural Gas Fired Room Heater
• If pilot does not stay lit, refer to Troubleshoot-
ing, pages 14 & 15. Also, contact a qualied 
service person of gas supplier for repairs. 
• If control knob does not pop up when released, 
contact a qualied service person or gas sup-
plier for repairs.
8.   When the pilot is lit, turn control knob coun-
terclockwise to heating level. The main burner 
should light.
9.  To select the desired heat level, turn the 
temperature setting knob counterclockwise to 
between 1 & 5. 
THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION
FOR IR20NGT / IR30NGT: The thermostatic control 
used simply turns on and off the burner. 
FOR BF20NGT / BF30NGT: The thermostatic control 
used modulates the ame size as the temperature gets 
closer to set point, then it turns off the burner upon 
reaching temperature.
The burner will cycle back on when room temperature 
drops below the set temperature. The control knob can 
be set to any heat level between 1 and 5. Selecting the 
HI setting will cause the burner to remain on.
Note: The thermostat sensing bulb measures the 
temperature of air near the heater cabinet. This may 
not always agree with room temperature (depend-
ing on housing construction, insulation location, 
room size, open air temperature, etc.). Frequent 
use of your heater will let you determine your own 
comfort levels.
The LED temperature indicator measures approximate 
room temperature around the heater. 
Note: The LED temperature indicator DOES NOT oper-
ate with or control the thermostat setting of the heater.
TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE
SHUTTING OFF HEATER
1.  Turn control knob clockwise to the OFF posi-
tion.
2.  Turn off all electrical power to the appliance if 
servicing is to be preformed.
3.  Turn off equipment shutoff valve.
SHUTTING OFF BURNER ONLY (PILOT STAYS LIT)
1.  Turn control knob clockwise to the PILOT/IGN 
position.
INSPECTING BURNER
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame pattern 
often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 21 show a correct pilot ame pattern. Figure 22 
shows an incorrect pilot ame pattern. The incorrect 
pilot ame pattern is not touching thermocouple. This 
will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermo-
couple cools, the heater will shut down. If pilot ame 
pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 22:
• Turn heater off (see To Turn OFF Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 11 for non-thermostat models or 
page 12 for thermostat models).
• See Troubleshooting, pages 14 and 15.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 23 show a correct burner ame pattern. Figure 
24 shows an incorrect burner ame pattern. If burner 
ame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 24:
• Turn heater off (see To Turn OFF Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 11 for non-thermostat models or 
page 12 for thermostat models).
• See Troubleshooting, pages 14 and 15.
