.2 General 

Information

WARNING 

Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail to shut 

off, shut off the manual gas valve to the appliance before 

shutting off the electrical supply.

WARNING 

Do  not  use  this  appliance  if  any  part  has  been  under 

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to 

inspect the appliance and replace any gas control that 

has been under water. 

WARNING 

Installation  should  be  done  by  a  qualified  agency  in 

accordance  with  these  instructions.  The  qualified 

service agency installing this high efficiency separated-

combustion system is responsible for the installation.

1.3 Warranty

Refer to the limited warranty information on the Warranty Form shipped 

with the heater.

Warranty is void if ...

a. Wiring is not in accordance with the diagram furnished with the 

heater.

b. The unit is installed without proper clearance to combustible 

materials.

c. A fan model is connected to a duct system or if the air delivery sys-

tem is modified.

Model UEAS high-efficiency unit heaters are design certified by ITS for use 

in industrial and commercial installations in the United States and Canada. 

Instructions in this manual apply only to Model UEAS heaters.
Model UEAS heaters are available for use with either natural or propane 

gas. The type of gas, the input rate, and the electrical supply requirement 

are shown on the heater rating plate. Check the rating plate to determine 

if the heater is appropriate for the intended installation. 

NOTE

: All Model 

UEAS heaters are factory equipped for use with natural gas and include a 

conversion kit for field conversion for use with propane. 
Model UEAS heaters have a titanium stabilized primary heat exchanger 

with a MacroChanne

®

 secondary heat exchanger (patent pending).

CAUTION

Model  UEAS  unit  heaters  should  not  be  used  in  an 

application where the heated space temperature is below 

50°F. The combination of low space and combustion air 

temperatures may result in condensate freezing in the 

secondary heat exchanger and/or condensate drain.
