S AFETY WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
17. Ziegler & Brown highly recommends the use of smoke detectors with any heating
product, including this unit. If possible, install a smoke detector in a hallway adjacent to
the room (to reduce the possibility of occasional false activation from the heat produced
by the heater). If your local council codes require the smoke detectors to be in the same
room, you must follow those requirements. Check with your local authority for
requirements in your area.
18. Recommended Flue Configuration: Any configuration listed in this manual has been
approved for installation clearances according to AS 2918. For best performance we
recommend a vertical flue configuration.
19. Type and Size of Flue: We recommend using a Maxiheat pellet heater flue system.
Secure all flue joint connections with 3 screws. Seal the exhaust vent joint connections
with high temperature silicone sealant.
20. Maintain proper ventilation. It is important that adequate oxygen be supplied to the fire
for the combustion process. Modern houses are often so well insulated that it may
become necessary to open a window slightly or install an outside air vent to provide
sufficient combustion air.
21. HEATER WILL BE HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND
FURNITURE AWAY FROM THE HEATER. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME
ROOM AS THE HEATER.
22. DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS
UNIT.
23. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER
APPLIANCE OR ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
SINCE THE HEATER SUPPLIER HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE INSTALLATION OF
YOUR HEATER, THE HEATER SUPPLIER GRANTS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED OR
STATED FOR THE INSTALLATION OR MAINTENANCE OF YOUR HEATER.
THEREFORE, THE HEATER SUPPLIER ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE(S).
