OPERATION
This heater is clean burning. It requires no
outside venting. There is no heat loss out a
vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by
realistic, dancing yellow flames. This heater
is designed for vent-free operation with flue
damper closed. It has been tested and
approved to ANSI Z21.11.2 standard for
unvented heaters. State and local codes
in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free
heaters. Non-thermostat models may also
be operated as a vented decorative (ANSI
Z21.60) product by opening flue damper.
SAFETY PILOT
This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple-
tion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The
ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free
room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the
heater if there is not enough fresh air.
WARNING: This heater shall
not be installed in a room or space
unless the required volume of in-
door combustion air is provided
by the method described in the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54,
the
International
Fuel Gas Code,
or applicable lo-
cal codes. Read the following in-
structions to insure proper fresh
air for this and other fuel-burning
appliances in your home.
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient
than ever. New materials, increased insulation
and new construction methods help reduce
heat loss in homes. Home owners weather
strip and caulk around windows and doors to
keep the cold air out and the warm air in. Dur-
ing heating months, home owners want their
homes as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy
efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh
air must enter your home. All fuel-burning ap-
pliances need fresh air for proper combustion
and ventilation.
