IMPORTANT Installer: Present this manual to the end user. Acquaint the end user with Important Information: Cover & pages 4 to 8. END USER: In particular you must be aware of ‘Clearances to Combustible’ requirements and the limitations of stacking or placing material near the heaters. Make your safety personnel and staff aware of this information. WARNING Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, injury or death.
WARNING Heater Expansion It is a normal condition that during heat-up and cool-down a radiant heater will expand and contract. Allowances for heater expansion must be made in the gas connection and heater suspension. Improper installation, alteration, or adjustment can result in property damage, injury or death. WARNING Gas Connection Improper installation, connection, or adjustment can result in property damage, toxic gases, asphyxiation, injury or death.
WARNING Clearance to Combustibles Location of flammable or explosive objects, liquids or vapors close to the heater may cause fire or explosion and result in property damage, injury or death. Do not use, store or locate flammable or explosive objects, liquids or vapors in proximity of the heater. The clearance to combustible material represents the minimum distance that must be maintained between the outer heater surface and a nearby surface.
MOUNTING CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES NOTE: A ‘PEEL & STICK’ SIGN IS SUPPLIED: USE AN INDELIBLE MARKER TO ENTER VALUES ‘H’, ‘S’, ‘F’, & ‘B’ ON . POST THE SIGN ADJACENT TO THE HEATER THERMOSTAT OR IN A PROMINENT LOCATION. See next page for details.
The clearance to combustible materials represents the minimum distance that must be maintained between the heater and a nearby surface. The stated clearance to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 90F° (50C°) above room temperature. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance which may degrade at lower temperatures are protected to prevent degradation.
1. GENERAL APPLICATION A gas-fired radiant heater may be installed for heating of commercial / industrial non-residential spaces. It is beyond the scope of these instructions to consider all conditions that may be encountered. Installation must conform with all local building codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the U.S.A. or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1 in Canada.
3. INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL GARAGES AND PARKING STRUCTURES Luminous (high intensity) radiant heaters are suitable for use in commercial garages when installed in accordance with the latest edition of the Standard for Parking Structures, ANSI/NFPA 88A, or the Standard for Repair Garages, ANSI/NFPA No. 88B, or the Canadian Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, B149.1.
6. MOUNTING CLEARANCES This heater must be mounted with at least the minimum clearances between the heater and combustibles as shown in FIG-1, TABLE 1, Page 7. The clearances to combustible material represent a surface temperature of 90 F° (50 C°) above ambient. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance which may degrade at lower temperatures are protected to prevent degradation.

8. VENTILATION WARNING Inadequate venting of a heater may result in asphyxiation, carbon monoxide poisoning, injury or death. Heating system venting must be in accordance with all local, state, provincial, and national codes (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in USA; B149.1 in Canada). This heater is approved for unvented (indirect venting) application.
9. GAS SUPPLY PIPING WARNING Install and connect gas lines in accordance with local, state, provincial and national codes (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in USA; B149.1 in Canada). Incorrect installation and connection of gas lines may results in fire, explosion, property damage, injury or death Do not install any gas piping or wiring in the heat zone directly above the heater. Do not subject heater controls to leak test pressures when checking the main supply piping. A.
GAS SUPPLY PRESSURE: The maximum supply pressure must be limited to 14 inches w.c. (0.51 psi). If the line pressure is above 14 inches w.c. then a separate pressure reducing regulator must be used - follow all codes. The minimum pressure at the inlet to the heater regulator must be equal to or greater than 6.0 inches w.c. for NG and 12 inches w.c. for LP.
11. INSTALLATION A. Properly size and install ventilation as per Section 8, gas supply as outlined in Section 9, previous page, and electrical supply as per Section 10 above. B. Ensure adequate clearance around air openings into the combustion chamber C. The ignition control assembly is shipped in the carton with the heater. Assemble the gas valve / ignition control assembly to the heater at the gas-supply union. D.

12. 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.
