Your Safety is Important to Us!  
This symbol is used throughout  
the manual to notify you of  
possible fire, electrical or burn  
hazards. Please pay special  
attention when reading and  
following the warnings in these  
sections.  
Installation, Service and Annual  
Inspection of heater must be done by a contractor  
qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired  
heating equipment.  
Read this manual carefully before installation,  
operation or service of this equipment.  
Heaters are not approved for residential installation.  
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.  
Thin sheet metal parts, including the various venting  
components, have sharp edges. To prevent injury,  
the use of work gloves is recommended.

SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY  
The installer is responsible for the following:  
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals  
To install the heater, as well as the gas and  
electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable  
specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon  
recommends the installer contact a Local  
Building Inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.  
CAUTION  
Do not use heater in an area containing corrosive  
chemicals.  
Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals to ensure a  
longer life of the burner, heat exchanger and other  
parts.  
To use the information given in a layout drawing  
and in the manual together with the cited codes  
and regulations to perform the installation.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in  
property damage.  
To install the heater in accordance with the  
clearances to combustibles.  
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 furnish all needed materials not furnished as  
standard equipment.  
To plan location of supports, vents and air  
intakes.  
To provide access for servicing.  
To provide the owner with a copy of this  
Installation, Operation and Service Manual.  
To never use heater as support for a ladder or  
other access equipment and never hang or  
suspend anything from heater.  
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical  
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen ele-  
ments (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds 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 components will be greatly reduced. An out-  
side 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.  
To ensure there is adequate air circulation  
around the heater and to supply air for  
combustion, ventilation and distribution in  
accordance with local codes.

6.2.2 Separated Combustion Heaters  
(Models UHAS 150 - 400)  
6.5 Vertical Venting  
Vertically vented heaters can be common vented  
(up to 4 heaters).  
The heaters are designed to be installed as  
separated combustion heaters. The vent and air  
intake are run as separate pipes to the wall or roof  
terminals. See Page 12, Figure 8. As an option, the  
vent and air intake are run as separate pipes to a  
concentric vent box and a concentric vent/air intake  
pipe penetrates the wall or roof.  
For vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m),  
condensation will form. Insulation is recommended  
and condensation drains may be desired. Vent from  
the rear of the heater cabinet then run the vent  
vertically and use a condensate drain at the bottom  
of the vertical vent.  
Vent pipe must be sloped 1/4'' (.6 cm) for every  
1' (.3 m).  
6.3 Unvented Operation  
For 4'' (10 cm), an approved vent cap  
(P/N 90502102) must be used.  
WARNING  
Carbon Monoxide Hazard  
For 6'' (15 cm) common vent, an approved vent cap  
(P/N 90502103) must be used.  
Heaters installed unvented must  
be interlocked with sufficient  
building exhaust.  
For common vertical venting of more than two  
Heaters must be installed  
according to the installation  
manual.  
A vent shall not extend less than 2' (.6m) above the  
highest point where it passes through a flat roof of a  
building.  
Failure to follow these  
instructions can result in death  
or injury.  
6.6 Length Requirements  
For unvented operation in commercial installations,  
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).  
If using vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m),  
condensation will form in the vent pipe. Insulation  
and additional sealing measures (high temperature  
silicone at all seams) are required.  
The entire vent should be insulated with foil faced  
fiberglass insulation (1/2" thick, 1-1/2# density  
minimum).

Vent pipe must be sloped ¼" (.6 cm) for every 1' (.3  
m). For vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m),  
condensation will form. Insulation is recommended  
and condensation drains may be desired. For vents  
pitched up toward the vent terminal, place the  
condensation drain within 5' (1.5 m) of the heater.  
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 vent terminal (P/N  
90502100) or equivalent insulated vent terminal.  
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper  
installation.  
Instead of an insulated vent terminal, a listed thimble  
(with 2" air gap) may be used with a 4" vent cap (P/N

SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY  
SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY  
7.1 Separated Combustion Installation  
When installed as a separated combustion heater,  
the air for combustion is drawn in from outside the  
building. It is important to ensure that there is  
adequate space around heater to provide air for the  
axial air distribution fan.  
7.2 Unvented Installation  
It is important to ensure that there is adequate fresh  
air supply at all times for both combustion and  
heating requirements in accordance with local and  
national codes.  
WARNING: Combustion by-products contain a  
chemical known to the State of California to cause  
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive  
harm.  
7.3 Building Ventilation  
Where ventilation is required, air must be taken from  
an outside point where it is not likely to be  
contaminated or obstructed.  
7.4 Outside Combustion Air Supply  
If outside combustion air supply is required,  
separated combustion model (UHAS) heaters must  
be used.  
IMPORTANT: If the building has a slight negative  
pressure or corrosive contaminants such as  
halogenated hydrocarbons are present in the air, an  
outside combustion air supply to the heater is  
required. Seal all combustion air pipe joints.  
The air supply duct may have to be insulated to  
prevent condensation on the outer surface. The  
outside air terminal must not be more than 1' (31  
cm) above the vent terminal.  
7.4.1 Length Requirements  
Follow the constraints listed on Page 8, Section 6.6.

COMBAT® UHA UNIT HEATER INSTALLATION OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL  
SECTION 8: GAS PIPING  
• Meter and service must be large enough to  
handle all the burners being installed plus any  
other connected load. The gas pipe which feeds  
the system must be large enough to supply the  
required gas with a maximum pressure drop of  
1/2" w.c. When gas piping is not included in the  
layout drawing, contact the local gas supplier.  
WARNING  
• An isolating valve and union connection should  
be used and fitted into the supply adjacent to the  
heater.  
Fire Hazard  
Connect gas supply according to Figure 9.  
Gas can leak if not installed properly.  
• A minimum 1/8" NPT plugged tapping  
accessible for test connection must be installed  
immediately upstream of the gas supply  
connection to the heater.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,  
injury or porperty damage.  
It is important that the gas supply pipe and the  
electrical connections do not support any of the  
heater’s weight.  
A gas meter is connected to the service pipe by the  
gas supply company. An existing meter should be  
checked, preferably by the company, to ensure that  
the meter is adequate for the rate of gas supply  
required.  
• For suspended heaters, an approved metal  
flexible connection between the isolating valve  
and the heater may be used. To reduce  
pressure loss, use one pipe size larger than  
the heater gas connection.  
IMPORTANT - The complete installation must be  
purged and tested for gas soundness in accordance  
with local and national codes.  
Installation pipes must be fitted in accordance with  
local and national codes. Pipes of smaller size than  
the heater inlet gas connection should not be used.  
• Do not high pressure (in excess of 1/2 psi  
[14" w.c.]) test the gas piping with the burner  
connected. Close manual shut-off valve  
during any pressure testing equal to or less  
than 1/2 psi (14" w.c.). Failure to follow these  
instructions can result in property damage.  
Check the pipe and tubing ends for leaks before  
placing heating equipment into service. When  
checking for gas leaks, use a soap and water  
solution; never use an open flame.
