tem. After more than 40 years of infrared expertise in
commercial and industrial applications, Roberts-Gor-
don now offers the CGTH-Series heater for use in
residential garages and light industrial/commercial
applications.
WARNING
3.2 About the Heater
The CGTH-Series is a factory-assembled, gas-fired,
low-intensity heating system that incorporates a bal-
anced flue. The system has been designed for easy
installation and will provide years of economical
operation and trouble-free service. Not only is infra-
red heat efficient, it also provides the most comfort-
able conditions in open areas, such as garages.
Cut Hazard
Wear protective gloves when handling aluminum
reflectors.
Edges are sharp.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury.
Gas-Fired means it uses clean-burning natural or LP
gas.
Thin sheet metal parts, such as the reflector portion
of the heater and the various venting components,
have sharp edges. To prevent injury, the use of work
gloves is recommended. The use of gloves will also
prevent the transfer of body oils from the hands to the
surface of the reflector.
Low-Intensity means that the radiant surface of the
tube does not glow red. Instead, it operates at a
lower temperature (less than 1000°F) and radiates
energy at a lower intensity per square foot of radiat-
ing surface. The lower temperature and intensity lev-
els are within a range that is most effective in
establishing and maintaining personal comfort levels.
An aluminum reflector directs the radiant energy
downward to the occupied area.
Balanced Flue means that the burner draws com-
bustion air from outdoors and exhausts the products
of combustion, also to the outdoors, through a shared
opening. This is accomplished through two concen-
tric tubes.
Radiant refers to the energy radiated by the CGTH-
Series heater. Because the energy is in the form of
infrared rays, it does not directly heat the air. Instead,
the rays heat objects such as the floor, cars, machines
and people. The warm objects, in turn, heat the air.
These combined features are the key to the excep-
tional comfort and fuel efficiency provided by the
CGTH-Series heater.
3.3 Unpacking the Heater
3.3.1 Manpower Requirements
To prevent personal injury and damage to the heater,
two persons will be required to remove the heater
from the carton. Both ends of the heater should be

installed a minimum of 10' (3 m) above the upper
surface of wings or engine enclosures of the highest
aircraft which may be housed in the hangar. (This
should be measured from the bottom of the heater
to the top of the wing, or engine enclosure, which-
ever is highest from the floor).
This heater needs fresh air for safe
operation and must be installed so
there are provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or injury.
The location, size, installation and termination of
vents, as well as the required safe distances from
combustibles when penetrating combustible walls,
must comply with local codes and recommendations
of the local gas company. United States: Refer to
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 - latest revi-
sion (same as NFPA 54). Canada: Refer to CSA

so as not to be subject to damage by aircraft,
cranes, movable scaffolding or other objects.
• When installed over hoists, the required safe dis-
tances from combustibles must be maintained from
the uppermost point of the combustible materials
placed on the hoist.
4.4.2 Balanced Flue Construction
The balanced flue consists of a 3" (8 cm) diameter
flue which is concentrically positioned inside a 5"
(12.5 cm) diameter vent pipe (See Figure 2). The 5"
(12.5 cm) diameter vent supplies outside air for com-
bustion while the 3" (8 cm) diameter flue carries the
products of combustion from the heater.

tion Manual. Before using your heater, check the
location. If the location does not follow these guide-
lines, do not use the heater. Immediately contact
your installer.
• The heater must meet the minimum mounting
height requirement of 7' (2.1 m) above the floor. For
aircraft hangars and public garages, the heater must
meet the minimum mounting height requirement of
8' (2.4 m) above the floor.
• The proposed mounting location allows for the
required safe distances from combustibles such as
vehicles, wood, gasoline and flammable objects, liq-
uids and vapors.
• The proposed location of the heater will not restrict
motion of passageway doors or windows.
• The proposed location will not interfere with opera-
tion of the overhead garage door, or allow the door
to enter the required safe distances from combusti-
bles.
• The proposed location will provide the best cover-
age of the total area to be heated.
• Consideration be given to the types of vehicles that
will be parked in the garage (cars, vans, boats, RV's,
etc.).
• The proposed location will allow for the required safe
distances from combustibles with respect to the
vehicles parked in the garage.
• The proposed location will allow the required utilities

2. Turn off all electric power to the heater if service
is to be performed.
7. Reset is accomplished by removing power from
the heater for at least five seconds.
3. Turn off the manual gas valve in the heater
supply line.
8. With a three-try module, when the flame is
established and then lost on the first or second
trial, the gas valve will automatically turn off. A
purge and trial for ignition will then occur.
5.7 Venting
5.6 Sequence of Operation
As mentioned on Page 5, Section 3.7, it is the
Installer’s Responsibility to properly vent (exhaust)
the heater outside. Please make sure your heater is
vented. If it is not vented, do not use the heater.
Immediately call your installer.
Your heater may be vented in one of three ways:
horizontal through the wall, horizontal with an elbow
through the wall or vertical through the roof. You
should know the way your heater is vented. Refer to
the following drawings to determine the type of vent-
ing you have. If you are not sure, please contact your
installer.
1. When the thermostat calls for heat, the blower
motor will energize.
2. When the motor approaches nominal running
speed, the pressure switch closes and activates
the ignition module which in turn initiates the
purge.
3. The ignition module then energizes the spark
igniter.
4. When sparking begins, the gas valve is ener-
gized.
5. If a flame is detected, the gas valve remains
open. When the call for heat is satisfied, the sys-
tem control mechanism de-energizes and the
gas valve is turned off.
WARNING
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Heater must be exhausted outside.
Use materials supplied.
6. If no flame is detected, the gas valve is closed,
and a purge period begins. After the purge
period, the ignition module energizes the spark
igniter and the gas valve. If a flame is still not
established, a third and final purge/ignition
sequence is begun. After three failed attempts,
the system control mechanism will lock out for a
period of one hour or until the unit is reset.
This heater needs fresh air for safe
operation and must be installed so
there are provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or injury.
