SECTION 1: HEATER SAFETY  
Your Safety is Important to Us!  
1.1 Manpower Requirements  
This symbol is used throughout  
the manual to notify you of possi-  
ble fire, electrical or burn hazards.  
To prevent personal injury and damage to the heater,  
two persons will be required for installation.  
Please pay special attention when  
reading and following the  
1.2 Safety Labels and Their Placement  
warnings in these sections.  
Product safety signs or labels should be replaced by  
the product user when they are no longer legible.  
Please contact Roberts-Gordon or your ROBERTS  
GORDON® independent distributor to obtain  
replacement signs or labels. See Page 2, Figure 1  
Installation, service and annual inspection of heater  
must be done by a contractor qualified in the installa-  
tion and service of gas-fired heating equipment.  
Read this manual carefully before installation, opera-  
tion or service of this equipment.  
This heater is designed for heating nonresidential  
indoor spaces. Do not install in residential spaces.  
These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes  
and ordinances, and applicable standards that apply  
to gas piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc. must be  
thoroughly understood before proceeding with the  
installation.  
1.3 California Proposition 65  
In accordance with California Proposition 65 require-  
ments, a warning label must be placed in a highly  
visible location on the outside of the equipment (i.e.,  
near equipment’s serial plate). See label placement  
drawing on Page 2, Figure 1 for label location. Avoid  
placing label on areas with extreme heat, cold, corro-  
sive chemicals or other elements. To order additional  
labels, please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC or your  
ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor.  
Protective gear is to be worn during installation,  
operation and service. Thin sheet metal parts, includ-  
ing the aluminum reflector portion of the heater and  
the various venting components, have sharp edges.  
To prevent injury, the use of work gloves is recom-  
mended. The use of gloves will also prevent the  
transfer of body oils from the hands to the surface of  
the reflector.  
Before installation, check that the local distribution  
conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjust-  
ment of the appliance are compatible.  
This heater must be applied and operated under the  
general concepts of reasonable use and installed  
using best building practices.  
This appliance is not intended for use by persons  
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or  
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and  
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision  
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a  
person responsible for their safety. Children should  
be supervised to ensure that they do no play with the  
appliance.

CTH2-SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL  
SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY  
on the burner and in the Installation, Operation and  
8, Figure 12. Write the proper clearance dimensions  
in permanent ink according to your model number  
and configuration in the open spaces on the tag.  
The installer is responsible for the following:  
To install the heater, as well as the gas and electri-  
cal supplies, in accordance with applicable specifi-  
cations and codes. Roberts-Gordon recommends  
the installer contact a local Building Inspector or  
Fire Marshal for guidance.  
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals  
To use the information given in a layout drawing  
and in the manual together with the cited codes  
and regulations to perform the installation.  
CAUTION  
To install the heater in accordance with the  
clearances to combustibles.  
To furnish all needed materials not furnished as  
standard equipment.  
Product Damage Hazard  
To plan location of supports.  
Do not use heater in area containing  
corrosive chemicals.  
To provide access to burners for servicing on all  
sides for burner removal.  
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data  
Sheets (MSDS).  
To provide the owner with a copy of this installa-  
tion, operation and service manual.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result  
in product damage.  
To never use heater as support for a ladder or  
other access equipment and never hang or sus-  
pend anything from heater.  
Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring  
that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken  
prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility of  
the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the  
sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence  
of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or  
halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the  
premises.  
To ensure there is adequate air circulation around  
the heater and to supply air for combustion, venti-  
lation and distribution in accordance with local  
codes.  
To safely and adequately install heater using  
materials with a minimal working load of 75 lbs  
(33 kg).  
To ensure the heater is placed in a approved  
application.  
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical  
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen  
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com-  
pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning  
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air  
supply of the burner, the life span of the heater compo-  
nents will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must  
be provided to the burners whenever the presence of  
these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if  
the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.  
2.1 Wall Tag  
A laminated wall tag is available for the heater as a  
permanent reminder of the safety instructions and  
the importance of the required clearances to com-  
bustibles. Please contact Roberts-Gordon or your  
ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor to  
obtain the wall tag. Affix the tag by peeling off the  
backing of the adhesive strips on the rear surface  
and position the tag on a wall near the heater (e.g.  
thermostat or ROBERTS GORDON® Controller).  
2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes  
All appliances must be installed in accordance with  
the latest revision of the applicable standards and  
national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas  
and venting installation. Note: Additional standards  
for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars,  
etc. may be applicable.  
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91037912) is illustrated on  
the back cover. For an immediate solution, you may  
affix this copy on the wall near the heater.  
Know your model number and installed configuration.

SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES  
SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES  
WARNING  
3.1 Required Clearances to Combustibles  
Clearances are the required distances that combusti-  
ble objects must be away from the heater to prevent  
serious fire hazards. Combustibles are materials that  
may catch on fire and include common items such as  
wood, paper, rubber, fabric, etc. Maintain clear-  
ances to combustibles at all times for safety.  
Fire Hazard  
Clearances for all heater models are located on the  
burner of the heater and on Page 5, Figure 3 through  
Page 8, Figure 12 in this manual. Check the clear-  
ances on each burner for the model heater being  
installed to make sure the product is suitable for your  
application and the clearances are maintained. Read  
and follow the safety guidelines below:  
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and  
vapors the minimum required clearances to  
combustibles away from heater.  
Some objects will catch fire or explode when  
placed close to heater.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result  
in death, injury or property damage.  
• Keep gasoline or other combustible materials  
including flammable objects, liquids, dust or  
vapors away from this heater or any other appli-  
ance.  
• In locations used for the storage of combustible  
materials, signs must be posted to specify the  
maximum permissible stacking height to maintain  
required clearances from the heater to the com-  
bustibles. Signs must be posted adjacent to the  
heater thermostat. In the absence of a thermostat,  
signs must be posted in a conspicuous  
location.  
• The stated clearances to combustibles represents  
a surface temperature of 90° F (50°C) above room  
temperature. Building materials with a low heat tol-  
erance (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-  
ply, etc) may be subject to degradation at lower  
temperatures. It is the installer’s responsibility to  
assure that adjacent materials are protected from  
degradation.  
• Consult local Fire Marshal, Fire Insurance Carrier  
or other authorities for approval of proposed instal-  
lation when there is a possibility of exposure to  
combustible airborne materials or vapors.  
• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive  
equipment and workstations.  
• Maintain clearances from vehicles parked below  
the heater.  
• Hang heater in accordance to the minimum sus-  
pension requirements on Page 14, Figure 14  
.
• Maintain clearances from swinging and overhead  
doors, overhead cranes, vehicle lifts, partitions,  
storage racks, hoists, building construction, etc.  
• If the radiant tubes must pass through the building  
structure, be sure that adequate sleeving and fire  
stop is installed to prevent scorching and/or fire  
hazard.  
NOTE: 1. All dimensions are from the surfaces of all tubes, couplings and elbows.  
2. Clearances B, C and D can be reduced by 50% after 25' (7.5 m) of tubing downstream  
from where the burner and burner tube connect.

forced air inlet located within 10' (3.1 m).  
Edges are sharp.  
Vent must terminate at least 4' (1.2 m) below, 4'  
(1.2 m) horizontally from, or 1' (.3 m) above any door,  
operable window, or gravity air inlet into any building.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result  
in injury.  
8.1.2 Canadian Requirements  
8.1 General Venting Requirements  
The vent shall not terminate within 6' (1.8 m) of a  
mechanical air supply inlet to any building.  
This heater must be vented in accordance with the  
rules contained in this manual and with the following  
national codes and any state, provincial or local  
codes which may apply:  
The vent shall not terminate within 3' (.9 m) of a  
window or door that can be opened in any building,  
any non-mechanical air supply inlet to any building,  
or of the combustion air inlet of any other appliance.  
United States: Refer to National Fuel Gas Code  
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest revision.  
8.2 Unvented Operation  
Canada: Refer to Natural Gas and Propane  
Sufficient ventilation must be provided in the amount  
of 4 cfm per 1000 Btu/h firing rate (United States); 3  
cfm per 1000 Btu/h firing rate (Canada).  
Installation Code CSA B149.1 - latest revision.  
Exhaust end of heater will accept a 4' (10 cm) vent  
pipe using the vent adapter (P/N 90502700). To  
prevent leakage of condensation, install the vent  
adapter with the seam on top and seal the joint using  
a high temperature silicone sealant.  
Use of optional outside combustion air is not  
recommended with unvented heaters.

SECTION8:VENTING  
8.3 Horizontal Venting  
FIGURE 22: Tube Termination  
In noncombustible walls only, vent terminal  
(P/N 02537801-1P) may be used.  
For 4'' (10 cm) vents in either combustible or  
noncombustible walls, use Tjernlund VH1-4 (P/N  
90502100) or equivalent insulated vent terminal.  
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper  
installation.  
For 6'' (15 cm) common vents in either combustible  
or noncombustible walls, use Tjernlund VH1-6 (P/N  
90502101) or equivalent insulated vent terminal.  
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper  
installation.  
8.6 Length Requirements  
The maximum vent length allowed is 45' (13.7 m).  
The maximum outside air supply duct length allowed  
is 45' (13.7 m).  
The total vent length, plus outside air duct length,  
plus any extensions to minimum heat exchanger  
lengths, cannot exceed 65' (19.8 m).  
8.4 Vertical Venting

(P/N 90502300) must be used.  
For 6'' (15 cm) common vent, an approved vent cap  
(P/N 90502302) must be used.  
Vent length should be limited to less than 20' (6 m). If  
using vent lengths greater than 20' (6 m),  
condensation will form in the vent pipe. Insulation  
and additional sealing measures (high temperature  
silicone at all seams) are required. Optional heat  
exchanger beyond minimum lengths is considered as  
vent length for length determination.  
For common vertical venting of more than two  
A vent shall not extend less than 2' (.6m) above the  
highest point where it passes through a flat roof of a  
building.  
Subtract 15' (4.6 m) of maximum allowed vent or duct  
length per vent elbow if more than two are used.

CTH2-SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL  
SECTION 9: GAS PIPING  
There is an expansion of the tube with each firing  
cycle. This will cause the burner to move with respect  
to the gas line. This can cause a gas leak resulting in  
an unsafe condition if the gas connection is not made  
in strict accordance with Figure 23.  
WARNING  
Meter and service must be large enough to handle all  
the burners being installed plus any other connected  
load. The gas line which feeds the system must be  
large enough to supply the required gas with a maxi-  
mum pressure drop of 1/2" wc When gas piping is not  
included in the layout drawing, the local gas supplier  
will usually help in planning the gas piping.  
Fire Hazard  
Tighten gas hose fittings to connect gas  
supply according to Figure 23.  
Gas lines must meet applicable codes:  
United States: The Flexible Stainless Steel Gas  
Hose (US models) supplied with the heater is certi-  
fied per the Standard for Connectors for Gas Appli-  
ances, ANSI Z21.24/CSA 6.10 - latest revision.  
Canada: The Rubber Type 1 Gas Hose (Canadian  
models) optional with the heater is certified as being  
in compliance with the Standard for Elastomeric  
Composite Hose and Hose Couplings for Conducting  
Propane and Natural Gas, CAN/CGA 8.1 - Latest  
revision.  
Gas hose can crack when twisted.  
Gas hose moves during normal operation.  
Use only 36" (91 cm) long connector of 1/2" or  
3/4" nominal ID.  
Connector supplied with heater for U.S.  
models (not with Canadian models).  
Failure to follow these instructions can result  
in death, injury or property damage.  
• Check the pipe and tubing ends for leaks  
before placing heating equipment into ser-  
vice. When checking for gas leaks, use a soap  
and water solution; never use an open flame.  
WARNING  
Explosion Hazard  
Leak test all components of gas piping  
before operation.  
Gas can leak if piping is not installed  
properly.  
Do not high pressure test gas piping with  
heater connected.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result  
in death, injury or property damage.  
Install the gas hose as shown in Figure 23. The gas  
hose accommodates expansion of the heating  
system and allows for easy installation and service of  
the burner. Before connecting the burners to the  
supply system, verify that all high pressure testing of  
the gas piping has been completed.

12.1 Honeywell SmartValve® II Troubleshooting  
This heater is supplied with the Honeywell Smart-  
Valve® II control system. This system is equipped with  
a diagnostic function that will assist in performing  
troubleshooting. The LED (Light Emitting Diode) indi-  
cator at the top of the SmartValve® II control will flash  
in various patterns to indicate status. The LED status  
indication chart provided below gives a summary of  
possible faults.
