•
Follow installation instructions CAREFULLY to avoid
creating unsafe conditions. All wiring should be done
and checked by a qualified electrician, using copper
wire only. All external wiring must conform to
applicable local codes, and to the latest edition of the
National Electric Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70.
•
All gas connections should be made and leak-tested by
a suitable qualified individual, per instructions in this
manual. Also follow procedures listed in
.
•
Use only the fuel for which the duct furnace is
designed (see rating plate). Using LP gas in a heater
that requires natural gas, or vice versa, will create the
risk of gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning and
explosion.
Important:
Do not attempt to convert the duct
furnace for use with a fuel other than
the one intended. Such conversion is
dangerous, as it could create the risks
listed previously.
•
Use only the fuel for which the heater is designed (see
rating plate). Using LP gas in a heater that requires
natural gas, or vice versa, will create the risk of gas
leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning and explosion.
•
Make certain that the power source conforms to the
electrical requirements of the heater.
•
Do not depend upon a thermostat or other switch as
a sole means of disconnecting power when installing
or servicing heater. Always disconnect power at main
circuit breaker as described above. Failure to do so
could result in fatal electric shock.
•
Special attention must be given to any grounding
information pertaining to this heater. To prevent the
risk of electrocution, the heater must be securely and
adequately grounded. This should be accomplished by
connecting a grounded conductor between the
service panel and the heater. To ensure a proper
ground, the grounding means must be tested by a
qualified technician.
•
Do not insert fingers or foreign objects into the heater
or its combustion air moving device. Do not block or
tamper with the heater in any manner while in
operation or just after it has turned off, as some parts
may be hot enough to cause injury.
•
This heater is intended for general heating
applications ONLY. It must NOT be used in potentially
dangerous locations such as flammable, explosive,
chemical-laden or wet atmospheres.
•
In cases in which property damage may result from
malfunction of the heater, a backup system or a
temperature sensitive alarm should be used.
•
The open end of gas piping systems being purged shall
not be discharged into areas where there are sources
of ignition or into confined spaces UNLESS
precautions are taken as follows: 1) by ventilation of
the space, 2) by control of purging rate, 3) by
elimination of all hazardous conditions. All
precautions must be taken to perform this operation in
a safe manner!
Unless otherwise specified, the following conversions
may be used for calculating SI unit measurements:
