When used without adequate combustion and ventilation air,
heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless,
poisonous gas.
Do not install heater until all necessary provisions are made
for combustion and ventilation air. Consult the written
instructions provided with the heater for information
concerning combustion and ventilation air. In the absence
of instructions, refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.
This heater is equipped with a PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM designed to turn off the heater if not enough fresh air
is available.
DO NOT TAMPER WITH PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM!
If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air.
If heater keeps shutting off, have it serviced. Keep burner and
control compartment clean.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO
DEATH.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu, with
headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, heater
may not be working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have heater
serviced.
Some people – pregnant women, persons with heart or lung
disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, those at high
altitudes – are more affected by carbon monoxide than others.
The pilot light safety system senses the depletion of oxygen at
its location. If this heater is installed in a structure having a high
vertical dimension, the possibility exists that the oxygen supply
at the higher levels will be less than that at the heater. In this type
of application, a fan to circulate the structure air will minimize
this effect. The use of this fan will also improve the comfort level
in the structure. When a fan is used to circulate air, it should be
located so that the air flow is not directed at the burner.
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more than
10,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a bedroom or
bathroom.
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more than
6,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a bathroom.
• Never burn solid fuels in a fireplace where a gas log set is
installed.
• Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out
of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
• Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near
the appliance.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high
surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or
clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised when they are
in the same room as the appliance.
• This unit complies with ANSI Z21.11.2 Unvented Heaters.
• Correct installation of ceramic fiber logs, proper location of
the heater and annual cleaning are necessary to avoid potential
problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting from improper
installation or operation, can settle on surfaces outside the
fireplace.
• Avoid any draft s that could alter burner flame patterns. Do
not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Do not place
a blower inside of firebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that
alter burner flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will
occur as a result of drafts.
• The installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 (latest edition) and to the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA70 (latest edition).
• NOTE: Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person. The appliance should be inspected before
use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More
frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from
carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is imperative that the control
compartment, burners and circulating air passageways of the
appliance be kept clean.
• Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an appliance
must be replaced prior to operating the appliance. Provide
adequate combustion and ventilation air.
• The flow of combustion and ventilation air MUST NOT be
obstructed.
• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the
combustion chamber and adequate accessibility clearance for
servicing and proper operation. NEVER obstruct the front
opening of the appliance.
• A fireplace screen must be in place when the appliance is
operating and, unless other provisions for combustion air are
provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction
of combustion air.
• WARNING: Do not allow fans to blow directly into the
fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns.
• WARNING: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert
or other accessory not approved for use with heater.
