WARNING

Example: Vent-free heater #1 9,000 BTU/Hr

Vent-free heater #2 23,000 BTU/Hr

Gas appliance #1 35,000 BTU/Hr

(water heater) Total = 67,000 BTU/Hr

* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent is sealed

combustion and draws combustion air from the outdoors.

The space in the previous 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:

a. Rework equations adding the space of adjoining room(s). If the extra

volume provides an unconfined space, then remove door or add ventilation

grills between rooms. Refer to National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1,

Section 5.3.

Vent room directly to the outdoors. Refer to National Fuel Gas Code,

ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3.

c. Install a lower BTU/Hr heater, to make the area an unconfined space.

If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can

support, then the space is an unconfined space. You will need no additional

fresh air ventilation for an unconfined space.

This appliance is designed to be wall-hung. Do not recess any part of

the appliance into the wall. This appliance may be installed in any

room in a home except bedrooms or bathrooms - or areas where large

amounts of steam are likely to be generated.

It should be noted that heaters create warm air currents. These

currents move heat to wall surfaces next to the heater. Installing

the heater next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating the

heater where impurities in the air (such as tobacco smoke or

candle smoke) exist, may discolour walls.

Installation in living rooms is common, however other rooms such as

kitchens, dining rooms and hallways are permitted, providing a suitable

natural gas supply is available, and rooms sizing and ventilation

requirements are strictly adhered to (see section 4).

The appliance is designed to be versatile, and as such will operate correctly

when exposed to normal gentle drafts experienced within the home. It is not

recommended, however that the appliance be installed in areas where it is

likely to be exposed to persistent strong drafts, that may be generated by

outside doors or windows, air vents etc. It is recommended that the

appliance should not be installed within 20” of any air vent.

Adhere to all local codes or in their absence the latest edition of The

National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or NFPA54 which can be obtained

from The American National Standards Institute, Inc. (1430 Broadway, New

York, NY, 10018) or National Fire Protection Association, Inc. (Batterymarch

Park, Quincy, MA, 02269).

Seller of unvented natural gas fired supplemental room heaters in the

commonwealth of Massachusettes shall provide to each purchaser a copy

of 527 CMR 30 upon sale of the unit. Please refer to section 4.0 on page 2

of this manual.

This Lennox Hearth Products unvented gas room heater is certified by

OMNI-Test Laboratories, Inc to ANSI Z21.11.2-2007 standard.

This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight

construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and

ventilation air.

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined

space as a space whose volume is less than 50 ft 3per 1,000 BTU/Hr (4.8

m3per kW) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that

space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than

50 ft 3per 1,000 BTU/Hr (4.8 m3per 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 considered a part

of the unconfined space.

Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:

a. wall and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous

water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm or less with openings

gasketed or sealed, and

b. weather stripping has been added on operable 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 wallceiling joints,

between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines,

and at other openings.

Use the following equations to determine if you have a confined or

unconfined space.

Determine the volume of space — ft 3.

Length x Width x Height = _____ ft 3

(Include adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation

grills between rooms.)

Example: 24' (L) x 16' (W) x 8' (H) = 3072 ft 3

Divide the volume of space by 50 ft 3to determine the maximum

BTU/Hr the space can support.

______ (volume of space – ft 3)/ 50 ft 3=

(Maximum BTU/Hr the space can support)

Example: 3072 ft 3 / 50 ft 3 = 61.44

or 61,440 BTU/Hr the space can support.

Add the BTU/Hr of all the fuel burning appliances in the space.

Vent-Free heater _______ BTU/Hr

Gas appliance #1* _______ BTU/Hr

Gas appliance #2 + _______ BTU/Hr

7.0 SITE REQUIREMENTS

IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE HEATER MAY BE OPERATED IS

SMALLER THAN THAT DEFINED AS AN UNCONFINED

SPACE OR IF THE BUILDING IS OF UNUSUALLY TIGHT

CONSTRUCTION, PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND

VENTILATION AIR BY ONE OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED

IN THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54,

SECTION 5.3 OR APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES.

WARNING

Clearances to non-combustibles

Non-combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete

etc. and also a number of man-made materials impervious to flame. If in

doubt refer to the material manufacturer for further information before

proceeding with installation.

Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 4”. Clearance to the front of

the appliance is 20”.

The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible

wall, providing the area behind the appliance is flat and does not interfere

with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance.

The appliance may be installed with or without a non-combustible hearth. If

a hearth is fitted, the size and design may be as desired.

A non-combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the

appliance provided it is no closer than 16” from the top of the appliance

glass panel and the wall above the appliance is non combustible.

Clearances to combustible materials

Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials

likely to combust if exposed to flame. Generally, any material, which is likely

to discolour, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat, should be

considered as a combustible material or surface.

Clearance to the sides of the appliance are 4” but curtains, drapes and

other fabrics are not permitted within a distance of 20” of the appliance

sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the appliance

regardless of distance.

The minimum clearance to the ceiling above the appliance is 32” measured

from the top of the appliance glass panel.

Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the

appliance within a distance of 40”.

Under no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma

screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the wall above the appliance. The

appliance is designed to be wall mounted alone and not in conjunction with

any type of combustible fire surround.

No combustible shelves should be positioned on the wall above the

appliance.

It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be

positioned on the wall above the appliance are able to withstand prolonged

exposure to moderate heat and moisture before proceeding with their

installation.

The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a combustible wall,

providing it is flat and does not interfere with the various vent holes in the

back panel of the appliance. The wall must be structurally sound and

constructed from a material capable of withstanding moderate heat.

Finished plaster, conventional wall paper and dry-lined plasterboard are

examples of suitable materials. Materials such as flock, blown vinyl and

embossed paper which are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should

be avoided as scorching and or discoloration may occur over time.

If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry-lined wall or a timber framed

construction wall then the integrity and ability of the wall to carry the weight

of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances

that any vapor control barrier is not damaged, and that any structural

members of the house frame are not damaged.

The appliance may be positioned as close to a solid floor (i.e. stone,

wooden laminate etc.) as the particular design of fire frame permits,

however it is not permitted to install the appliance within 4” of carpet, rugs

or fabric materials of any kind. This dimension is measured vertically to the

bottom of the appliance frame

Gas connection :

The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8” NPT at the

regulator, located below the burner, in the center of the heater.

There are four possible

entry points for the gas

supply pipework to enter

the appliance firebox.

These entry points are

‘knock out’ type holes

(shown in figure 1).

Non-concealed gas

connections may be

made using the entry

points on the base of the

firebox. A concealed

gas connection may be

made using the knock

out hole in the centre

back of the firebox.

Select the most

appropriate entry point and knock out the relevant hole.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made, the supply pipe should always

be sleeved through walls and floors using the shortest possible route.

For concealed supply pipe routing, pipes must (where possible) be vertical

and providing there is sufficient wall thickness available, they should be

placed in pipe chases. Horizontal pipe runs should be avoided where

possible. Prior to chasing a solid wall, an inspection should be made to note

the proximity of any cables/sockets outlets which may already be buried.

Pipes must be secured using suitable clips and protected against corrosion.

Ideally factory finished protected pipework and fittings should be used.

Joints should be kept to a minimum and compression fittings must not be

used. The pipework installation must be tested for soundness before any

protection is applied and/or the pipework and fittings are buried.

After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance, taking

into account the site requirements as specified in section 7 of these

instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the proposed

supply pipe routing, the firebox of appliance may be secured to the wall.

Figure 1

DO NOT USE A BLOWER INSERT, HEAT EXCHANGER

INSERT OR OTHER ACCESSORY NOT APPROVED FOR

USE WITH THIS HEATER.

WARNING

DO NOT ALLOW ANY FANS TO BLOW DIRECTLY INTO

THE FIREPLACE. AVOID ANY DRAFTS THAT ALTER

BURNER FLAME PATTERNS.

WARNING

There are no imitation fuel bed components to install. The appliance

features a ribbon burner which is designed to produce a continuous

band of flame over its length. The burner should be visually inspected

to ensure it is free from any foreign matter. If it is necessary to clean or

dust off the burner then the glass door should be removed by removal

of the four retaining screws. Re-fit the glass door after cleaning or

inspection, ensuring a good seal.

A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the gas room heater to

the gas supply. Consult all local codes. The installer must provide an

ANSI approved manual shut off valve, flex connector and 3/8" NPT

fitting.

Route gas line using techniques and materials prescribed by local

and/or national codes. Only use pipe of 1/2"or greater size to allow full

gas volume to the gas fireplace. Undue pressure loss will occur if the

pipe is too small. An ANSI approved manual shut-off valve and union

must be installed upstream of the heater within the fireplace cavity

when rigid pipe is used. Ensure that a sediment trap is installed

upstream of the heater (figure 4) within the structure’s piping system to

prevent moisture and contaminants from passing through the pipe to

the heater controls and burner. Failure to do so could prevent the heater

from operating reliably. The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8” NPT at

the regulator, located below the burner, in the right hand side of the

heater. When tightening up the joint to the regulator hold the regulator

securely with a wrench to prevent the regulator from moving.

To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the

strength of both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. Lennox

Hearth Products assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and

damages that may occur due to improper installation or handling.

The appliance should not be installed until all dry wall sanding and wall

painting has been completed.

Incorrect installation can cause the appliance to fall from the wall and

cause injury. Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The

wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a

vertical surface. Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other

than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.

A full size fitting template is supplied to assist with wall mounting.

Mark the positions shown as “Fixing Points” on the wall. If the appliance

is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity wall, or a

solid wall, drill four holes using a 1/4” masonry bit. Insert the fiber wall

plugs provided.

If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed

construction wall then special cavity screw fixings will be required which

are not supplied with this product. These should be constructed from

metal and not plastic.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made ensure the gas supply pipe

is in it’s final position and can enter the appliance in the correct position

when the appliance is hung on the wall.

Insert the wall mounting screws into the top wall plugs, taking care to

leave the screws protruding approximately 3/8” from the wall. Now hang

the appliance onto these screws through the two keyhole shaped holes

in the back panel of the appliance.

Insert the lower mounting screws into the lower wall plugs through the

corresponding depressed holes in the lower part of the back panel. Do

not tighten fully.

Before tightening the wall mounting screws fully, at this stage it is

recommended to check the horizontal alignment of the appliance with a

spirit level, as small adjustments can still be made if necessary. When

this has been checked, tighten all four fixing screws fully.

To access the upper fixing screws insert a screwdriver through the

holes in the deflector plates above the catalyst as shown in figure 3.

ensuring no gas

leaks. All instructions

must be handed to

the user for

safekeeping.

The gap between the

spark electrode and the

pilot should be 1/8” to

3/16” to produce a good

spark. There should be no

need to adjust this. If

under any circumstances

the piezo electric spark

fails, the pilot cannot be lit

manually.

1. Remove the glass panel from all packaging and lay face down on a

soft surface. Identify the top and bottom of the glass facia by

observing the orientation of the keyhole shaped slots in the facia

fixing brackets as shown in figure 10.

Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a gas leak test solution

(also referred to as bubble leak solution).

NOTE: using a soapy water solution (50% dish soap, 50% water) is an

effective leak test solution, but it is not recommended, because the

soap residue that is left on the pipes/fittings can result in corrosion over

time.

A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting instructions label in the con-

trol compartment or on page 11).

B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas leak test solution to

check for leaks. If bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the

gas control knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF” position. Either tighten or

refasten the leaking connection, then retest as described above.

C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, be sure to rinse off the

leak testing solution.

D. Observe the individual tongues of flame on the burner. Make sure all

ports are open and producing flame evenly across the burner. If any

ports are blocked, or partially blocked, clean out the ports.

The pressure should be checked with the gas heater burning and the

control set to high flame.

After commissioning the appliance, the customer should be instructed

on the safe use of the appliance and the need for regular servicing.

Frequency of service depends on usage, but MUST be carried out at

least once annually.

Advise that cleaning of the fireplace may be achieved when the

fireplace is cold using a damp cloth and mild detergent on most

surfaces.

Advise that the fireplace will emit an odor for a time after initial

commissioning and that extra ventilation may be needed during this

time. A periodic visual check of the pilot flame and the burner flame

should be carried out. (Refer to figure 22).

A suggested procedure for servicing is detailed as follows;

Turn off the fireplace at the the gas supply. Ensure that the fireplace is

fully cold before attempting service.

1. Lay out the dustsheet and tools.

2. Remove the front glass facia as described in section 16.0,

only in reverse.

3. Remove the glass door assembly (5 screws) and clean

carefully. Remove the valve cover plate (4 screws).

4. Inspect the burner and the catalysts and clean if necessary

with a soft brush.

5. Disconnect the gas supply.

6. Undo the four screws retaining the burner support brackets to

the base and rear of the firebox.

7. Remove the burner unit, strip off the burner pipes and clean

thoroughly.

8. Clean the in-line restrictor, pilot assembly and the burner

tube. Do not attempt to remove the pilot injector as this can

cause damage.

9. Re-assemble components.

10. Turn on the gas supply and leak test. Check pilot and

burner for good ignition.

11. Refit the valve cover and retaining screws.

12. Refit the glass door assembly.

13. Refit the facia Refitting as described in section 15.0.

14. Check the purpose provided ventilation is unobstructed.

15. Light the fire and test setting pressures.

16. Check safe operation of the appliance.

For specific servicing instructions, see relevant sections.

First, remove the front Glass facia as described in Section 16.0 only in

reverse, remove the valve cover (4 screws) and disconnect the gas

connection inside appliance. The gas connections to the gas valve can

now be released. Undo the four screws retaining the burner brackets to

the base and rear of the firebox. The burner may now be removed.

Remove the pilot and main burner pipes and blow through to dislodge

any debris. Now remove the in line restrictor and blow through to make

sure it is entirely clear.

Unclip the pilot lint gauze and clean with a soft brush. Clean the exterior

of the pilot assembly with a soft brush and blow through the flame ports

on the pilot head. Check the aeration holes are free from lint or dirt. The

pilot assembly can be removed if required by disconnecting the

electrode HT lead, gas pipe, thermocouple lead and unscrewing the

mounting screws and lifting away. The pilot assembly is a non-

serviceable item and should not be taken apart. Aeration holes must be

absolutely clear internally for proper operation. NEVER MODIFY OR

BEND THE THERMOCOUPLE TO MAKE THE PILOT STAY ALIGHT.

Modifications are dangerous and can have serious unseen effects on

safety. If the pilot will not stay lit there is a problem with dirt, the gas

supply to it, or the thermocouple needs replacement.

The gas valve is a non-serviceable item. If this needs replacement,

remove the cover plate then the securing screw holding the valve

bracket in place, remove all pipe unions, and the complete valve.

Replacement must be original manufacturers parts.

Re-assemble in the reverse of removal. Ensure setting pressures are

as stated in Section 3; Appliance Data.

WARNING

ANY CHANGE TO THIS HEATER OR ITS CONTROLS

CAN BE DANGEROUS.

WARNING

Remove the glass facia, glass panel and burner unit (as per servicing

section), lint arrestor and pilot unit by using a screwdriver to remove the

retaining screws. Clean the pilot assembly with a soft brush and blow

through. Check the aeration holes are free of any dirt or lint. Clean

thoroughly internally, the connection can be removed from the base of

the pilot unit using two spanners to make cleaning easier. Do not

damage or try to dismantle the pilot injector. The unit is factory set and

the only check necessary is to ensure the spark gap is correct. See

specifications for gas setting.

NEVER MODIFY OR BEND THE THERMOCOUPLE TO MAKE THE

PILOT STAY ALIGHT. If the pilot will not stay lit there is a problem with

dirt, the gas supply, or the thermocouple needs replacement.

Modifications are dangerous and can have a serious unseen effect on

safety and therefore MUST not be done. Replacements must be origi-

nal manufacturers parts. Re-assemble in the reverse of removal.

Ensure setting pressures are as stated in Section 3; Appliance Data.

It is recommended that the catalysts are inspected for signs of damage

and dirt during routine servicing procedures. The expected life of the

catalysts is in excess of 11,000 hours (10 years of normal use). After

this time the catalyst should be replaced. If there are any deposits of dirt

or soot on the catalysts they should be cleaned with a soft brush and a

vacuum cleaner. If removed for cleaning ensure the seals are in good

condition before replacing the catalyst. New seals will usually be

required.

The performance of the catalyst may be checked using a combustion

gas analyzer as follows. Important: The temperature of the gases

emitted by the catalytic converters is in excess of 700 oF. Measuring gas

of this temperature may damage some types of gas analyzers. If in

doubt consult the equipment manufacturer.

Turn on the fireplace as per the operating instructions, and run at

maximum setting for 15 minutes. Position gas sample probe directly

over a catalyst via the outlet grille, on top of the appliance. Record the

carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and then the carbon monoxide

(CO) concentration as displayed by the analyzer - also noting the units

in which the values are expressed. Most analyzers display carbon

dioxide (CO2) concentrations in percentage (%) terms and carbon

monoxide concentration in parts per million (ppm) terms.

In order to calculate the combustion ratio for the appliance (CO/CO2) it

is first necessary to express both gas concentrations in terms of per-

centage. To convert from parts per million (ppm) to a percentage (%)

divide the ppm figure by 10,000. Examples : 35ppm = 0.0035%, 15ppm

= 0.0015%, 5ppm = 0.0005%.

Now divide the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) expressed in

percent by the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) to obtain the

appliance combustion ratio.

The combustion ratio of the gasses emitted by the catalytic convertor

should not exceed 0.0015. If replacing, firstly, remove the glass facia as

described in section 15.0. The catalysts are located on the top of the

internal firebox and can be removed be unscrewing the retaining nuts

securing the clamping plate. Remove the catalysts and seals and

discard. Refit a new catalysts and seals in reverse order, ensure the

catalysts and door have good seals.

Appliances that are several years old or have been extensively disman-

tled should be checked for soundness. It is important that all the prod-

ucts of combustion pass through the catalytic converters at the top of

the firebox before leaving the appliance.

The firebox is heated by lighting for a few minutes to provide a flow

through the firebox. The burner is then shut off and a smoke pellet or

match introduced at the base of the fire underneath the burner tray.

Large quantities of smoke will emerge from the top of the appliance, but

none should emerge from the joints or gasket faces, especially around

the door. It is important to note that the appliance can never be expect-

ed to be 100% smoke tight and small quantities of smoke may be seen

in corners of joints and gasket faces etc without affecting safety when

the fire is in operation.

GLASS PANEL -This can be cleaned with a suitable glass cleaner. The

following solutions are approved for use to clean glass.

• Non-ammonia based household cleaner

• 50% -50% mix of white vinegar and water

• Gas fireplace/stove glass cleaner

ADVERTENCIA

Ejemplo: Calentador sin salida de humos N° 1 9.000 BTU/h

Calentador sin salida de humos N° 2 23,000 BTU/h

Aparato de gas Nº 1 35.000 BTU/h

(calentador de agua) Total = 67.000 BTU/h

* No incluya aparatos de gas con salida de humos directa. La salida de humos

directa tiene combustión sellada y aspira el aire de combustión desde fuera.

El espacio del ejemplo anterior es un espacio confinado porque las BTU/h reales

consumidas son más del máximo de BTU/h que el espacio puede soportar.

Usted debe proporcionar aire fresco adicional. Sus opciones son:

a. Vuelva a calcular las ecuaciones sumando el espacio de una o más

habitaciones colindantes. Si con el volumen adicional se obtiene un espacio no

confinado, elimine una puerta o añada rejillas de ventilación entre las

habitaciones. Consulte el National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223,1, Sección 5.3.

Proporcione ventilación directa de la habitación con el exterior. Consulte el

National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223,1, Sección 5.3.

c. Instale un calentador de menos BTU/H para convertir el área en un espacio

no confinado.

Si el consumo real de BTU/h es menor que el máximo de BTU/h que puede

soportar el espacio, entonces el espacio es un espacio no confinado. Usted no

necesita ventilación adicional alguna para un espacio no confinado.

Este aparato está diseñado para ser colgado en una pared. No empotre

ninguna parte del aparato en la pared. Este aparato puede instalarse en

cualquier habitación de la casa, salvo en dormitorios y baños o en zonas

en las que es probable que se generen grandes cantidades de vapor.

Debe tenerse en cuenta que estos calentadores generan corrientes de

aire caliente. Estas corrientes mueven el calor a las superficies de las

paredes al lado del calentador. Si se instala el calentador al lado de

revestimientos vinílicos o textiles para paredes, o si se utiliza el

calentador en un lugar en el que existen impurezas en el aire (como

humo de cigarrillo o de velas), puede alterarse el color de las paredes.

Es habitual instalarlo en una sala de estar; no obstante, se permite la instalación

en otras habitaciones tales como cocinas, comedores y pasillos, siempre que

esté disponible un suministro de gas natural, y que la habitación cumpla

estrictamente los requisitos de tamaño y ventilación (ver Sección 4).

El aparato está diseñado para ser versátil, y como tal, funcionará correctamente

en presencia de las corrientes de aire suaves que normalmente se producen

dentro de una casa. No obstante, no se recomienda que se instale el aparato en

zonas en las que probablemente quede expuesto a corrientes fuertes continuas

generadas por puertas o ventanas al exterior, huecos de ventilación, etc. Se

recomienda no instalar el aparato a menos de 20” de cualquier hueco de

ventilación de aire.

5.0 NORMATIVA

Observe la normativa local o en su ausencia la última edición de The National

Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 o NFPA54, que puede obtenerse en The American

National Standards Institute, Inc. (1430 Broadway, New York, NY, 10018) o

National Fire Protection Association, Inc. (Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA,

El vendedor de un calentador suplementario de gas natural sin salida de humos

en el Estado de Massachusetts debe proporcionar a cada comprador una copia

de 527 CMR 30 en el momento de la venta de la unidad. Consulte la sección 4.0

en la página 2 de este manual.

Este calentador de gas sin salida de humos de Lennox Hearth Products está

certificado por OMNI-Test Laboratories, Inc con arreglo a la norma ANSI

Z21.11.2-2007.

Este calentador no debe instalarse en un espacio confinado o en una

construcción inusualmente estanca a menos que se prevea un suministro

suficiente de aire de combustión y ventilación.

El National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223,1/NFPA 54 define un espacio confinado

como un espacio con un volumen de menos de 50 pies 3por 1.000 BTU/h (4,8

m3por kW) del consumo nominal acumulado de todos los aparatos instalados en

dicho espacio, y un espacio confinado con un volumen de no menos de 50 pies

3por 1.000 BTU/h (4,8 m3por kW) del consumo nominal acumulado de todos los

aparatos instalados en dicho espacio.

Las habitaciones que se comunican directamente con el espacio en el que están

instalados los aparatos, a través de huecos no provistos de puertas, se

consideran como parte del espacio no confinado.

Una construcción inusualmente estanca se define como una construcción en la

que:

a. la pared y los techos expuestos a la atmósfera exterior tienen un retardador

continuo de vapor de agua con valor de una unidad de permeancia o menos, con

aberturas selladas o con juntas, y

b. se han añadido burletes impermeabilizantes en las ventanas y puertas

practicables, y

c. se han aplicado masillas o selladores a zonas tales como juntas alrededor de

marcos de ventanas y puertas, entre cimentaciones y suelos, entre las juntas

pared-techo, entre paneles de pared, en orificios para conductos sanitarios,

eléctricos y de gas, y en otras aberturas.

Utilice las siguientes ecuaciones para determinar si usted tiene un espacio

confinado o no confinado.

Determine el volumen del espacio — pies 3

Longitud x Ancho x Alto = _____ pies 3

(Incluir habitaciones colindantes con pasillos sin puertas o rejillas de

ventilación entre habitaciones.)

Ejemplo: 24' (Largo) x 16' (Ancho) x 8' (Alto) = 3072 pies 3

Divida el volumen del espacio entre 50 pies 3para determinar el máximo

de BTU/h que el espacio puede soportar.

______ (volumen del espacio – pies 3)/ 50 pies 3=

(Máximo de BTU/h que el espacio puede soportar)

Ejemplo: 3072 pies 3 / 50 pies 3 = 61,44

o 61.440 BTU/h que el espacio puede soportar.

Sume las BTU/h de todos los aparatos quemadores de combustible del

espacio.

ADVERTENCIA

Espacio libre hasta superficies no combustibles

Las superficies no combustibles se definen como ladrillo, metal, mármol,

hormigón etc., así como diversos materiales artificiales que son insensibles a las

llamas. En caso de duda, solicite más información al fabricante del material

antes de proceder con la instalación.

Debe dejarse un espacio libre de 4” en los lados del aparato. Debe dejarse un

espacio libre de 20” en la parte delantera del aparato.

La parte trasera del aparato puede instalarse directamente sobre una pared

incombustible, siempre que la zona detrás del aparato sea plana y no obstruya

los diversos orificios de ventilación del panel trasero del aparato.

El aparato puede instalarse con o sin un hogar incombustible. Si se instala un

hogar, puede ser del tamaño y diseño que se desee.

Puede colocarse por encima del aparato un estante incombustible de cualquier

profundidad, siempre que esté a una distancia de no menos de 16” desde la

parte superior del panel de vidrio del aparato y que la pared que está por encima

del aparato sea incombustible.

Espacio libre hasta materiales combustibles

Los materiales combustibles se definen como madera, telas u otros materiales

susceptibles de arder al estar expuestos a una llama. En general, cualquier

material susceptible de decolorarse, derretirse o deformarse al estar expuesto a

un calor moderado debe considerarse como material o superficie combustible.

Debe dejarse un espacio libre de 4” en los laterales del aparato, pero no se

permiten cortinas u otras telas en un espacio de 20” desde los laterales del

aparato. No se permiten materiales de este tipo directamente encima del

aparato, cualquiera que sea la distancia.

La distancia mínima al techo por encima del aparato es de 32”, medida desde el

borde superior del panel de vidrio del aparato.

No deben colocarse materiales combustibles directamente delante del aparato

en una distancia de 40”.

No deben colocarse en ningún caso equipos eléctricos, por ejemplo, televisores

de pantalla de plasma, en la pared por encima del aparato. El aparato está

diseñado para ser montado solo en la pared, no acompañado de ningún tipo de

embellecedor combustible.

No deben colocarse estantes combustibles en la pared por encima del aparato.

Es necesario comprobar que cualquier espejo, marco de cuadro, etc., que se

vaya a colocar en la pared por encima del aparato pueda soportar una

exposición prolongada a calor y humedad moderados antes de proceder a su

instalación.

La parte trasera del aparato puede instalarse directamente sobre una pared

combustible, siempre que ésta sea plana y no obstruya los diversos orificios de

ventilación del panel trasero del aparato. La pared debe ser estructuralmente

robusta, y debe estar construida de un material capaz de soportar el calor

moderado. Algunos ejemplos de materiales adecuados son enlucidos de yeso,

papel pintado convencional y paredes revestidas de cartón-yeso. Deben evitarse

materiales como papeles pintados aterciopelados, papel vinílico y papel en

relieve, que son sensibles incluso a niveles bajos de calor; pueden resultar

chamuscados y/o decolorados con el tiempo.

Si el aparato va a montarse en una pared revestida de cartón-yeso o en una

pared de armazón de madera, debe confirmarse la integridad de la pared y su

capacidad para soportar el peso del aparato. Es importante en estas

circunstancias no dañar cualquier barrera de control de vapor, y no dañar ningún

componente estructural del armazón de la casa.

El aparato puede colocarse lo más próximo que permita el diseño del marco del

calentador a un piso macizo (piedra, laminado de madera, etc.), pero no está

permitido instalar el aparato a menos de 4” de moqueta, alfombras o telas de

ningún tipo. Esta dimensión se mide verticalmente desde el borde inferior del

marco del aparato

Conexión de gas:

La conexión de entrada de gas del calentador es de 3/8”

NPT en el regulador, ubicado debajo del quemador, en el centro del

calentador.

Hay cuatro posibles

puntos de entrada por los

que puede pasar la

tubería de suministro de

gas a la cámara de

combustión. Estos puntos

de entrada son orificios

obturados (ilustrados en

la Figura 1).

Pueden realizarse

conexiones de gas no

ocultas usando los puntos

de entrada en la base de

la cámara de combustión.

Puede realizarse una

conexión de gas oculta

usando el orificio del centro del panel trasero de la cámara de combustión.

Seleccione el punto de entrada más apropiado y abra el orifico correspondiente.

Si se va a realizar una conexión de gas oculta, la tubería de suministro de gas

debe pasar por paredes o pisos por la ruta más corta posible, mediante

pasamuros.

Las tuberías de suministro ocultas deben tenderse en sentido vertical (siempre

que sea posible), y siempre que la pared tenga el grosor suficiente, deben ir

dentro de canaletas. En lo posible, deben evitarse los tendidos horizontales.

Antes de abrir una canaleta en una pared maciza, debe inspeccionarse la pared

observando la posición de cualquier toma de corriente o cable empotrado que

pudiera existir. Las tuberías deben fijarse usando clips apropiados, y deben estar

protegidas contra la corrosión. Cuando sea posible, deben utilizarse tuberías y

accesorios con protección aplicada en fábrica. Debe reducirse al mínimo el

número de acoplamientos, y no deben utilizarse juntas de compresión. La

instalación de tuberías debe ser sometida a pruebas de estanqueidad antes de

aplicar protección y/o empotrar las tuberías y acoplamientos.

Una vez que haya seleccionado la posición final de montaje del aparato, ten-

iendo en cuenta los requisitos especificados en la sección 7 de estas

instrucciones, la integridad de la pared, y la idoneidad de la ruta propuesta

para la tubería de suministro, puede fijarse a la pared la cámara de

combustión del aparato.

9.0 MONTAJE DEL APARATO

Figura 1

NO AÑADA UN SOPLADOR, UN INTERCAMBIADOR DE

CALOR U OTRO ACCESORIO NO HOMOLOGADO PARA EL

USO CON ESTE CALENTADOR.

ADVERTENCIA

NO PERMITA QUE LOS VENTILADORES SOPLEN

DIRECTAMENTE HACIA LA CHIMENEA. EVITE CUALQUIER

CORRIENTE QUE PUEDA MODIFICAR LOS PATRONES DE

LLAMA DEL QUEMADOR.

ADVERTENCIA

No hay componentes de lecho de combustible de imitación que instalar. El

aparato tiene un quemador tipo cinta que ha sido diseñado para producir una

banda continua de llamas en toda su longitud. Inspeccione visualmente el

quemador para asegurarse de que está libre de elementos extraños. Si es

necesario limpiar o quitar el polvo del quemador, debe desmontarse la

puerta de vidrio retirando sus cuatro tornillos de retención. Vuelva a montar

la puerta de vidrio después de la limpieza o inspección, comprobando su

estanqueidad.

Un instalador calificado de aparatos de gas debe conectar el calentador de

gas al suministro de gas. Consulte todas las normas locales. El instalador

debe proporcionar una llave de paso manual con homologación ANSI, un

conector flexible y un accesorio de 3/8" NPT.

Enrute la tubería de gas usando las técnicas y los materiales especificados

en las normas locales y/o nacionales. Utilice únicamente tuberías de 1/2” o

más de diámetro para asegurar el caudal necesario de gas a la chimenea.

Si la tubería es demasiado pequeña, habrá una pérdida excesiva de presión.

Deben instalarse, aguas arriba del calentador, una válvula de cierre manual

con homologación ANSI, dentro del hueco de la chimenea, si se utiliza

tubería rígida. Asegúrese de que hay una trampa de sedimentos instalada

aguas arriba del calentador (figura 4), dentro del sistema de tuberías de la

estructura, para evitar que pasen humedad y contaminantes a través del

tubo a los controles y al quemador del calentador. Si no, el calentador puede

no funcionar de manera confiable. La conexión de entrada de gas del

calentador es de 3/8” NPT en el regulador, ubicado debajo del quemador, en

el lado derecho del calentador. Al apretar el acoplamiento con el regulador,

sujete firmemente el regulador con una llave para evitar que éste se mueva.

Para garantizar la seguridad del usuario, diseñe la instalación de manera tal

que la resistencia de la pared y de los accesorios utilizados sea suficiente.

Lennox Hearth Products no asume ninguna responsabilidad por lesiones y

daños que puedan producirse a consecuencia de una instalación o un

manejo inadecuados.

No deberá instalarse el aparato hasta que se haya terminado el lijado en

seco y el pintado de las paredes.

Si se instala incorrectamente el aparato, éste puede caerse de la pared y

provocar lesiones físicas. No obstruya los orificios de ventilación del aparato.

La pared en la que se instale el aparato debe ser plana. Instale el aparato en

una superficie vertical únicamente. Evite las superficies desparejas. La

instalación del aparato en una pared que no es vertical puede provocar un

incendio, daños materiales o lesiones físicas.

Se suministra una plantilla de instalación de tamaño real para ayudar a

realizar esta tarea.

Marque en la pared los puntos identificados como "puntos de fijación". Si va

a montar el aparato en el tabique interior de un muro convencional con

cámara de aire, o de una pared maciza, perfore 4 orificios usando una broca

para pared de 1/4”. Introduzca los tacos de pared de fibra suministrados.

Si el aparato va a montarse en una pared revestida de cartón-yeso o en una

pared con armazón de madera, necesitará tacos especiales para cámaras

huecas, no suministrados con este producto. Deben ser metálicos, no de

plástico.

Si se va a realizar una conexión de gas oculta, asegúrese de que la tubería

de suministro de gas está en su posición final y que puede introducirse en el

aparato correctamente una vez que el aparato esté colgado en la pared.

Introduzca los tornillos de montaje en los tacos de pared superiores,

teniendo cuidado de dejar las cabezas de los tornillos a 3/8”

aproximadamente de la pared. Ahora cuelgue el aparato en estos tornillos a

través de los dos orificios con forma de bocallave situados en el panel

trasero del aparato.

Introduzca los tornillos de montaje inferiores en los tacos de pared inferiores,

a través de los orificios correspondientes de la parte inferior del panel

trasero. No los apriete del todo.

Antes de apretar del todo los tornillos de montaje, se recomienda comprobar

la alineación horizontal del aparato usando un nivel, puesto que todavía es

posible realizar pequeños ajustes si es necesario. Cuando lo haya

comprobado, apriete del todo los cuatro tornillos de fijación.

Para acceder a los tornillos de fijación superiores, introduzca un

destornillador a través de los orificios de las placas deflectoras situadas por

encima del catalizador, según muestra la Figura 3.
