THEORY OF OPERATION
The Fuel System: The hose/regulator assem-
bly attaches to the propane gas supply. This
provides fuel to the heater.
The Air System: The motor turns the fan. The
fan pushes air into and around the combus-
tion chamber. This air is heated and provides
a stream of clean, hot air.
The Ignition System: The piezo ignitor lights
the burner.
The Automatic Control System: This system
causes the heater to shut down if the flame
goes out.
PROPANE SUPPLY
Propane gas and propane tank(s) are to be
furnished by the user.
Use this heater only with a propane vapor
withdrawal supply system. See Chapter 5
of the Standard for Storage and Handling
of Liqueed Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA 58
and/or CAN/CGA B149.2. Your local library or
re department will have this booklet.
The amount of propane gas ready for use
from propane tanks varies. Two factors decide
this amount:
1. The amount of propane gas in tank(s)
2. The temperature of tank(s)
This heater is designed to operate with a
minimum 20 b (9 kg) propane tank. You may
need two or more tanks or one larger tank in
colder weather. It is recommended you use a
100 lb (45 kg) tank for longer operation. See
chart below. Less gas is vaporized at lower
temperatures. Your local propane gas dealer
will help you select the proper supply system.
The minimum surrounding air temperature
rating for each heater is 0° F (-18° C).
