Heatilator  gas  appliances  manufactured  with

tempered  glass  may  be  installed  in  hazardous

locations  such  as  bathtub  enclosures  as  defined  by

the CPSC. The tempered glass has been tested and

certified to the requirements of 

ANSI Z97.1-1984 and

CPSC  16  CFR  1202.  (Safety  Glazing  Certification

Council SGCC# 1595 and 1597. Architectural Testing,

Inc. Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-31917.01.)

This statement is in compliance with 

SPCS 16 CFR

Section  1201.5 

“Certification  and  labeling

requirements”  which  refers  to 

15  USC  2063 

stating

“…Such  certificate  shall  accompany  the  product  or

shall  otherwise  be  furnished  to  any  distributor  or

retailer to whom the product is delivered.”

Some local building codes require the use of tempered

glass  with  permanent  marking  in  such  locations.

Glass meeting this requirement is available from the

factory.  Please  contact  your  dealer  or  distributor  to

order.

We strongly recommend that you DO NOT install B-

Vent Gas Appliances in strong negative air locations,

such as a basement or a public facility. Living rooms

with  cathedral  ceilings  could  be  susceptible  to  a

negative air situation, but such installations can be

overcome through raising the termination, depending

on specific installations. This appliance uses room

air for normal operation and could have problems

establishing a positive draft in a negative air location.

In lieu, we recommend a Direct Vent Gas Appliance.

WARNING!

This appliance is tested and listed for use only with the optional accessories listed in these instructions.

Use of optional accessories not specifically tested for this appliance could void the warranty and/or result

in a safety hazard.
