EXAMPLE 1:
In this example, because there is no door to the adjoining room, the volume of the adjoining room may be added to the
volume of the room with the heater to get a total unconfined space.
The total unconfined space: 800 + 1200 = 2000 cubic feet.
Maximum BTU/h: 2000x1000 = 40,000 BTU/h
50
EXAMPLE 2:
If in this example a solid door separates Room 1 from Room 2, the volume of Room 2 could not be used. In this case the
maximum BTU/h would be:
Maximum BTU/h: 800x1000 = 16,000 BTU/h
50
If there are no more fuel burning appliances within this space then the 30,000 bTU/h input of the heater is
suitable to be installed. This also assumes that the construction of this space is not unusually tight.
2.3 GAS INSTALLATION
NOTE: All gas connections must be contained within the heater when complete.
1.
Move the heater into position and secure to the floor.
2.
The heater is designed to accept 3/8” gas supply line. The heater is equipped with a manual shut-off valve.
3.
Connect the gas supply in accordance to
local codes. In the absense thereof, install
according to the National Installation Code.
4.
When connecting the gas line to the valve,
support the valve and ensure not to kink the line.
5.
Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.

2.4 ELECTrICAL CONNECTION
For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient
location. Route a 2 strand, solid core millivolt wire from the valve to the wall switch or millivolt thermostat. The
recommended maximum lead length depends on wire size:
WIRE SIZE
MAX. LENGTH
14 gauge
100 feet
16 gauge
60 feet
18 gauge
40 feet
Disconnect the existing wires from terminals 1 and 3 (from the
ON/OFF switch) and replace with the leads from the wall switch / millivolt thermostat.
