Safety Information
This heater is designed for use as a construction heater in
accordance with ANSI Z83.7/CSA 2.14. Other standards
determine the use of fuel gases and heat producing prod-
ucts for specific uses. This infared heater’s intended use
is primarily for the temporary heating of buildings under
construction, alteration or repair.
Infared-fired means that all of the combustion products
enter the heated space. This heater is rated at 98%
combustion efficiency, but still produces small amounts of
carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans
can tolerate small amounts of carbon monoxide, and
caution should be taken to provide adequate ventilation.
Failure to provide adequate ventilation in accordance with
this manual could result in death. Early signs of carbon
monoxide poisoning resemble the flu.
- The symptoms of inadequate ventilation are:
* headache * dizziness * burning of the nose and eyes
* nausea * dry mouth or * sore throat
- If the heater is being used in the presence of others, be
sure to inform them of the proper safety precautions,
operating procedures and the hazards involved. Some
people are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others. These are pregnant women, people with heart
or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence of
alcohol or at high attitudes.
