ECOSCHWANK & IL SERIES ECOSCHWANK-X & IL-X SERIES GAS FIRED INFRA-RED LUMINOUS HEATER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. GENERAL ecoSchwank and IL gas fired infra-red luminous heaters are suitable to be installed for heating of non-residential indoor or outdoor spaces. These installation instructions are intended for the ecoSchwank and IL model heaters. All installations must conform to the following installation requirements.
2.2 INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL GARAGES ecoSchwank and IL Luminous Heaters are suitable for use in commercial garages when installed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA No. 88B 1985 (latest edition), which states clearances to combustible construction or material in storage, from heater and vent, must conform to standard NFPA No. 54 (ANSI Z223.1 latest edition), in the U.S.A. and the CSA B149.1 in Canada. “Overhead heaters shall be installed at least (8) feet above the floor”.
2.6 VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS Canada: Codes require that an un-vented heater be electrically interlocked to an independent exhaust fan by means of an Air Proving Switch. The exhaust fan must be sized to provide 3 cfm for every 1000 Btu/hr or fraction thereof, of total input of installed equipment. Consult CSA.B149.1 latest edition for requirements. USA: When a heater is installed un-vented the system requires the exhausting of at least 4 cfm per 1000 Bth/hr on NG, and 4.5 cfm per 1000 Btu/hr for LP.
2.9 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND THERMOSTAT CONTROL All electrical installations must meet local and the latest edition Electrical Code PART 1 CSA C22.1 in Canada and ANSI/NFPA N0 70 in the U.S.A.. Single heater requires 24 Volt, 60 Hz electrical transformer sized at 40 VA. If multiple heaters are connected to a single transformer, the proper transformer is 24 Volt, 60 Hz, sized at 40 VA for the first heater, and 20 VA each for all subsequent additions.
3.1. ECOSCHWANK-X & IL-X SERIES ONLY - SUSPENSION 1. Insert open Jack Chain link or ‘S” hook from the outside edge through the top hole at each end and each side of the heater body. Alternate: secure chain to heater with a nut and bolt through the four top holes 2. Secure in place by closing the chain link or ‘S” hook using pliers 3.
4. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS A. Open the isolation valve in the main gas line and turn gas control knob on the combination gas valve to the “ON” position. B. Switch on electrical circuit by turning the thermostat to the highest temperature setting. C. The heater should attempt ignition and remain lit within thirty seconds. Note that the corresponding exhaust fan is operating properly. D. If ignition does not occur, then cut off electrical power by turning the thermostat to off position.

8.4 SUGGESTED MOUNTING DISTANCE FOR COMFORT* Since most installations will differ in many details, these instructions are general. Sound judgment must be exercised and careful supervision is essential to ensure the installation will be made in the best manner possible for trouble-free operation and at minimal cost. All systems must be installed in accordance with acceptable practices, local codes, and applicable standards.

9. HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS Canada: All Luminous heaters are approved for altitudes zero to 2000 ft above sea level. If installed at 2000 ft to 4500 ft above sea level the heater must be ordered as High altitude. Contact Technical Services at 1-866-361-0417 for further information. USA: If a heater is to be installed at altitudes above 2000 ft, the input must be reduced by 4% per 1000 ft.
11. SPARK IGNITION CIRCUIT The step-up transformer in the ignition control provides spark ignition at 30,000 volts (open circuit). To check the spark ignition circuit, proceed as follows.
