WARNINGS
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, injury
or death. Read the installation, operating and
maintenance instructions thoroughly before
installing or servicing this equipment.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance. If you smell gas:
1. Open windows
2. Don’t touch electrical switches
3. Extinguish any open flame
4. Immediately call your gas supplier
OWNER
Retain this Manual & ensure available for service.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause injury, death or property
damage.
Read the installation, operation and service
instructions thoroughly before installing or servicing
this equipment.
INSTALLER
Provide Manual to Owner upon completion of
installation!
Read and thoroughly understand these Instructions
before attempting any installation
CAUTION: FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Maintain clearance to combustible constructions as
further specified in this manual. Failure to do so
could result in a serious fire hazard. Heaters should
not be located in hazardous atmospheres containing
flammable vapors or combustible dusts. Signs
should be provided in storage areas specifying
maximum safe stacking height.
CAUTION: MECHANCIAL HAZARD
This equipment expands and contracts with each
operating cycle. The gas connection, suspension
hardware and the installation itself must safely allow
this movement. Failure to do so could result in
serious fire or explosion hazard.
CAUTION: FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
This heater is equipped with an automatic ignition
device. Do not attempt to light the burner by hand.
Failure to comply could result in a serious fire and
personal injury hazard.
CAUTION: MECHANCIAL HAZARD
Do not use high pressure (above 1/2 psi) to test the
gas supply system with the burners connected,
doing so could result in damage to the burner and
its control components requiring replacement.
Do not install equipment in atmospheres containing
halogenated hydrocarbons or other corrosive
chemicals, doing so may lead to premature
equipment failure and invalidation of the warranty.
Additionally, it is recommended that the equipment
be installed with a slope downward and away from
the burner of ¼" (6mm) in 10' (3m) to allow start-up
condensate drainage.
CAUTION: SERVICE LIFE RISK
Due to continuous product innovations, we reserve the right to change product specifications without due notice.
