Figure1-Vent-Free Natural Gas Heater
Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion. An
unvented room heater produces approximately one (1)
ounce (30ml) of water for every 1,000 BTU’s (.3KW’s) of
gas input per hour.
Unvented room heaters are recommended as supplemental
heat (a room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire
house). In most supplemental heat applications, the water
vapor does not create a problem. In most applications,
the water vapor enhances the low humidity atmosphere
experience during cold weather.
WATER VAPOR: A BY-PRODUCT OF UNVENTED ROOM HEATERS
The following steps will help insure that water vapor
does not become a problem.
1. Be sure the heater is sized properly for the
application, including ample combusion air and
circulation air.
2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may
be used to help lower the water vapor content of the air.
3. Do not use an unvented room heater as the primary
heat source.
