Where can the heater be installed? Section 2 PLANNING The MHT/HST tube heater is intended for installation in the following areas: General • Residential applications, such as: This section provides the following information: — garages • Defines the gas, electric and venting requirements for the MHT /HST tube heater. — greenhouses • Specifies the national standards and applicable codes that apply to the gas, electric and venting requirements.
Electrical Service Requirements: System Requirements ATTENTION Risque de monoxyde de carbone L echappement du radiateur doit s’effectuer a l’exterieur. Utillisez le materiel fourni. Le non-respect de ces consignes peuvent avoir resultat la mort ou la blessures. The MHT/HST tube heater requires a grounded three-prong electrical outlet to be installed within 18 inches of the rear surface of the heater’s burner box.
Section 3 INSTALLATION Installation Materials Materials required for the installation of the MHT / HST tube heater include at a minimum the following: WARNING Several steps are involved in the installation of the heater. DO NOT attempt to operate the heater until ALL steps of the installation have been accomplished. Failure to follow this warning can cause death, injury or property damage.
General Guidelines (Residential) It is important to keep the minimum required safe distances from combustibles at all times to avoid death, personal injury or property damage. Clearances from vehicles parked beneath heaters must be maintained. Signs should be posted to identify any possible violation of the clearance distances form the heater in the vehicle areas. Maximum allowable stacking height in storage areas should be identified with signs or appropriate markings.
Hang the Heater Horizontal Installation Residential garages come in a variety of sizes, shapes, styles and methods of construction. Because of all these variables, it is not possible to include mounting hardware with the MHT / HST heater. Although wooden rafters and joists are the most common overhead structural members in residential garage applications, other structural configurations are also illustrated below. 1.
MHT / HST HEATER ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS 1. Place gaskets from Gasket kit (02885) on each side of the burner box. Use the four mounting studs around each of the three-inch holes for location. 2. Slide the tube flanges over the studs as was done in the prior step with the gaskets. The tube ends extend through the flanges to help with alignment. 3. Using the four long and four short nuts from the bolt kit (02876) secure the tube set to the burner box.
Typical Installation Section 4 VENTING The Illustration below shows a typical installation of the MHT / HST tube heater. The installation drawing shown has a straight horizontal venting arrangement and specifies the minimum space required for maintenance, as well as the allowable range of distances between the two suspension points. This appliance is certified under the ANS/CSA Standard for Vented Gas-Fired Space Heating Appliances.
The seams along the length of the piping and the joints between sections of piping should be sealed to prevent a potential leakage of flue gas into building. Use 100% RTV Silicone Rubber Adhesive sealant suitable for 500°F. BASIC FLUE VENTING (Residential Only) • Venting must be in compliance with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI. Z223.1 latest edition: or the authority having jurisdiction.

Flashing 3" Starting Collar ¼” per ft. downwards Air For Combustion (Residential) If indoor combustion air is to be supplied for a tightly enclosed area, one square inch of free area opening shall be provided below the heater for each 1,000 Btu/hr of heater input.
Low Voltage Thermostat Wiring Diagram Heaters are normally controlled by thermostat. The recommended 24V thermostat, connects to the unit as shown in the diagram below. Heater CAUTION Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
when such use is in compliance with local codes. All pipe, tube and fittings should be new and free from defects. Carefully ream the pipe and tube ends to remove obstructions and burrs. Supplied by others 3. Use LP-resistant joint compound on all threads. 4. Check the pipe and tube connections for leaks before placing heating equipment into service. When checking for gas leaks, use a soap and water solution; never use an open flame.
Operation of the Heater For best performance, the following maintenance procedures should be performed by a qualified service agency before each heating season: CHILDERN AND ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION. 1. A qualified service agency should be contacted for service other than routine maintenance. YOUNG CHILDERN SHOULD BE CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME SPACE AS THE HEATER.
Section 7 TROUBLESHOOTING General This troubleshooting guide has been designed to assist you in locating and correcting minor problems that may occur with the MHT / HST tube heater. BLOWER DOES NOT COME ON Possible Cause Try This…. Power cord is not plugged in. Plug power cord into a grounded three prong Outlet. Thermostat setting is too low. Increase thermostat temperature setting. DSI module needs to be reset. Unplug heater power cord from the electrical Outlet: wait for a minimum of five seconds.
BURNER DOES NOT LIGHT Possible Cause Try This…. Air in the gas line. Purge gas lines. Improper gas inlet pressure. Check gas inlet pressure at the 1/8” NPT plugged tap. Gas inlet pressure should be as follows: Natural Gas: 5.0”w.c. min.; 10.5” max. LP Gas: 11”w.c. min.; 13.0” max. If gas inlet pressure does not meet inlet pressure requirements contact the gas company. Check for 24V across valve terminals. Gas valve does not open. Check Shutoff On Valve.
