Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for   this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.   VENTILATION   Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased   insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home   owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out   and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their homes as   airtight as possible.   While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe.   Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for   proper combustion and ventilation.   Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air from   the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances.   This will insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.   PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION   The following is excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code. NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1,   Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation.   All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:   1. Unusually Tight Construction; 2. Unconfined Space; 3. Confined Space.   The information on pages 5 through 8 will help you classify your space and provide   adequate ventilation.   Unusually Tight Construction   The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for   combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction,   you must provide additional fresh air.   Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:   a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous   water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6x10-11 per pa-sec-m2) or   less with openings gasketed or sealed and   b. weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors and   c. caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window   and door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall-ceiling   joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and   gas lines, and at other openings.   If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide addi-   tional fresh air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 8.   If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to page 6.   Confined and Unconfined Space   The National Fuel Gas Code (ANSIZ2123.1, 1992 Section 5.3) defines a confined   space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour   (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space   and an unconfining space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per   1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances   installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the   appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are consid-   ered a part of the unconfined space.   * Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or   ventilation grills between them.   Continued   5 103876   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   DETERMINING AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION   AIR FOR   COMBUSTION   AND   Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space   Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.   Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with   doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.   VENTILATION   1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).   Continued   Length x Width x Height =   ___________________   cu. ft. (volume of space)   Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) =   2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)   If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the   volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.   2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space   can support.   ____________ (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)   Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = 51.2 or 51,200 (maximum   Btu/Hr the space can support)   3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.   Vent-free heater   Gas water heater*   Gas furnace   Vented gas heater   Gas fireplace logs   Other gas appliances*   Total   ___________________ Btu/Hr   ___________________ Btu/Hr   ___________________ Btu/Hr   ___________________ Btu/Hr   ___________________ Btu/Hr   + ___________________ Btu/Hr   = ___________________ Btu/Hr   Example: Gas water heater   Vent-free heater   Total   40,000   20,000   60,000   Btu/Hr   Btu/Hr   Btu/Hr   + = * Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent draws combustion air from the   outdoors and vents to the outdoors.   4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr   used.   _________________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)   _________________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)   Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)   60,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)   The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more   than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. You must provide additional fresh air.   Your options are as follows:   A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides   an unconfined space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between   rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building, page 7.   B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 8.   C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr size makes room unconfined.   If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space   is an unconfined space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.   6 103876   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

When ventilating to   an adjoining unconfined space, you must provide two permanent openings: one   within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor on the wall connecting the   two spaces (see options 1 and 2, Figure 2). You can also remove door into adjoining   room (see option 3, Figure 2). Follow the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI   Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of   ventilation grills or ducts.   WARNING   Rework worksheet, adding the space of the adjoining unconfined   space. The combined spaces must have enough fresh air to supply all   appliances in both spaces.   12"   Ventilation Grills   Into Adjoining Room,   Ventilation   Grills   Option 2   Or   into Adjoining   Room,   Option 1   Remove   Door into   Adjoining   Room,   Option 3   12"   Figure 2 - Ventilation Air from Inside Building   Continued   7 103876   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Turn control knob counterclockwise   to the PILOT position. Press   C-clockwise   in control knob for five (5) seconds (see Figure 17).   Note: You may be running this heater for the first time after hooking up   to gas supply. If so, the control knob may need to be pressed in for 30   seconds. This will allow air to bleed from the gas system.   • If control knob does not pop up when released, contact a qualified   service person or gas supplier for repairs.   6. With control knob pressed in, push down and release ignitor button. This   will light pilot. The pilot is attached to the front of burner. The pilot can be   seen through the glass panel. If needed, keep pressing ignitor button until   pilot lights.   Note: If pilot does not stay lit, refer to Troubleshooting, pages 22 through   25. Also contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs.   Until repairs are made, light pilot with match. To light pilot with match,   see Manual Lighting Procedure, page 19.   Ignitor Electrode   Thermocouple   Pilot Burner   Figure 18 - Pilot   7.

Turn off all electric power to the appliance if service is to be performed.   Shutting Off Burner Only (pilot stays lit)   1. Turn control knob clockwise   to the PILOT position.   Clockwise   THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION   The thermostatic control used on these models differs from standard thermo-   stats. Standard thermostats simply turn on and off the burner. The thermostat   used on this heater senses the room temperature. The thermostat adjusts the   amount of gas flow to the burner. This increases or decreases the burner flame   height. At times the room may exceed the set temperature. If so, the burner   will shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room temperature drops   below the set temperature. The control knob can be set to any heat level   between HI and LO. Selecting the HI setting will cause the burner to remain   fully on without modulating down in most cases.   Note: The thermostat sensing bulb measures the temperature of air near the   heater cabinet. This may not always agree with room temperature (depending   on housing construction, installation location, room size, open air tempera-   tures, etc.). Frequent use of your heater will let you determine your own   comfort levels.   MANUAL LIGHTING PROCEDURE   1. Remove front panel (see Figure 7, page 11).   2. Follow steps 1 through 5 under Lighting Procedures, pages 17 and 18.   3. With control knob pressed in, strike match. Hold match to pilot until pilot   lights.   4. Keep control knob pressed in for 30 seconds after lighting pilot. After 30   seconds, release control knob.   5. Replace front panel.   19   103876   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

The incorrect burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping of   the flame. It also shows the flame higher than 1/2 the glass panel height.   Continued   WARNING   If yellow tipping occurs, your heater could produce increased   levels of carbon monoxide. If burner flame pattern shows yellow   tipping, follow instructions at bottom of this page.   NOTICE   Do not mistake orange flames with yellow tipping. Dirt or other fine   particles enter the heater and burn causing brief patches of orange   flame.   1/2 GLASS HEIGHT   CORRECT FLAME PATTERN   AT HIGH POSITION   Figure 21 - Correct Burner Flame Pattern   Yellow   Tipping   1/2 GLASS HEIGHT   INCORRECT FLAME PATTERN   AT HIGH POSITION   Figure 22 - Incorrect Burner Flame Pattern   If burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 22   • turn heater off (see To Turn Gas To Appliance, page 19).   • see Troubleshooting, pages 22 through 25   21   103876   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
