CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
|
7
Special considerations should be made when selecting a location for your heater before installation. The most
important of which should be a location that will serve to be the most functional and useful in providing heat. Suggested
locations would be under an eave, on a wall of an open or partially enclosed patio, or on a fascia. This heater has been
thoroughly tested and certified to function during and after mild rain storms, and during mild wind conditions. Be aware
that by avoiding locations that subject your heater to constant wind or rain exposure will greatly extend the life or
your new heater. Other considerations include its mounting position in relation to combustible materials. Combustible
materials include wood, wood fascia, wood siding, stucco mounted over wood studs, vinyl siding, and drywall. See
installation diagrams that reference mounting distances.
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
• Select a location that provides the most functionality.
• Avoid locations that are prone to direct wind or rain exposure.
• This heater provides ample heat and large heat adjustability. It does not have to be located at eye level, as, its high
output will allow a distant location to still be affective.
• Do not mount this heater indoors or in a totally enclosed room. It needs air to breathe and vent.
• Avoid locations that are in close proximity to combustible materials (see illustration diagrams and mounting dis-
tances)
• Avoid locations that are so low that the installation could cause danger for those passing by.
• Standard and preferred installation places the gas exit (and vented valve access cover) of the heater on the RIGHT
side. This position places the gas exit and the AC adaptor cord at the REAR of the heater installation. This method is
preferred, not only from a visual standpoint, but allows for slightly less pipe routing, and creates more pivot adjust-
ability. There are times where right side hook up is not practical. The left side installation is still acceptable and the
heater will perform equally as well. Simply consider that there will be slightly more gas line routing to perform.
• Do not mount heater within a close proximity to fire sprinklers (4 ft. minimum recommended) to avoid accidental
activation of the sprinklers.
• It is recommended that the AC adaptor be used and the DC battery operation used as a secondary ignition source.
Consider the proximity of the nearest 110V AC GFI grounded power outlet to the location of the heater. The power
cord on the AC adaptor is 24 In. long and plugs directly into the right side wall of the heater. If there is no AC GFI
grounded outlet near the desired installation site then one should be added by a qualified electrician. An outdoor
extension cord can also be used, on a temporary basis, to bring AC power to the adaptor plug location.
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
CODE REQUIREMENTS
When connecting to a fixed fuel piping system the Installation must be in accordance with local codes, or in the absence
of codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z224 (in Canada CAN/CGA-B149.1 and -B149.2).
If AC power is being routed for AC/DC Transformer hook-up, then the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 shall ap-
ply (in Canada the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 Part 1 and Part 2 shall apply)
