CAUTION: Never connect heater directly
to the Propane supply. This heater requires
an external regulator (not supplied). Install
the external regulator between the heater and
Propane/LP supply.
The installer must supply an external
regulator. The external regulator will reduce
the incoming gas pressure to between 11
and 14 inches of water. If you do not reduce
incoming gas pressure heater regulator
damage could occur. Install external regulator
with the vent pointing down. Pointing the
vent down protects it from freezing rain or
sleet.

the control system and any gas control which has
been underwater.
9. Operating heater above elevations of 4,500 feet
could cause pilot/ODS to shutdown heater.
10. Always run heater with control knob in a locked
position. Never set control knob between locked
positions. Poor combustion and higher levels of
carbon monoxide may result if control knob is left
between locked positions.
DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to
death.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble
the u, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you
have these signs, the heater may not be working
properly. Get fresh air at once! Have heater serviced.
Some people are more a󰀨ected by carbon monoxide
than others. These include pregnant women, persons
with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the
inuence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
Propane/LP Gas:
Propane/LP gas is odorless. An odor making agent is
added to propane/LP gas. The odor helps you detect
a Propane/LP gas leak. However the odor added to
propane/LP gas may be present even though no odor
exists. Make certain you read and understand all
warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your
guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.
PRECAUTIONS:
1. 20,000 BTU or 30,000 BTU shall not be installed
in a bedroom or bathroom, or any place where a
strong wind would shut down the appliance.
2. This heater needs outside ventilation air to run
properly. The Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS)
safety shuto󰀨 system shuts down the heater if not
enough fresh air is available. See Fresh Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 5.
WARNING: An unvented heater having an input
of more than 10,000 Btu/hr (2 931W) shall not be
installed in a bedroom or bathroom.
3. Keep all air openings in heater clear, free of debris
or any blockage. This will insure that enough air for
proper combustion enters the heater.

blower switch has three positions: MANUAL, OFF and
AUTO. In AUTO, the blower will turn on and o󰀨 as the
heater cycles on and o󰀨. On MANUAL, the blower will run
continuously. To turn blower o󰀨, use the OFF position.
LOCAL CODES
Install and use heater with care.
Installation must conform to local codes or in the
absences of local codes, use the latest edition of
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
UNPACKING
1. Remove heater from carton.
2. Remove all protective packaging applied to
heater for shipment.
3. Check heater for any shipping damage. If
heater is damaged, promptly inform dealer
where you bought heater.
FRESH AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in a
room or space unless the required volume of indoor
combustion air is provided by the method described in
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air
for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.
ESTABLISHING ADEQUATE VENTILATION
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas
Code, NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation. All spaces in homes fall
into one of the three following ventilation classications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconned Space
3. Conned Space
This heater must not be installed in a conned space
or unusually tight construction unless provisions are
provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The information on pages 4 through 6 will help you
classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.
Unusually Tight Construction
If your home meets all of the three following criteria you
must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air
from Outdoors, page 6.
Unusually tight construction is dened as construction
where:
a. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside
atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder
with a rating of one perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2)
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 windows and door frames,
between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at
penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines,
and at other openings.
If your home does not meet all of the three criteria
above, see Determine the Type of Heater Location
Space, page 5.
Conned Space and Unconned Space
The National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1
denes a conned space as a space whose volume is
less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3
per kW) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances
installed in that space, and an unconned space as a
space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per
1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per 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
unconned space.

*Adjoining rooms are communication only if there
are door less passageways or ventilation grills
between them.
DETERMINING THE TYPE OF HEATER
LOCATION SPACE:
Use this method to determine if you have a conned or
unconned space.
Note: the space includes the room in which you
install heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless
passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Find the volume of the space by multiplying room
length x width x height.
Example: Space size 18ft (length) x 18ft. (width) x 8ft.
(height) = 2592
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied
with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms
to the total volume of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to deter-
mine the maximum Btu/hr the space can support.
Example: 2592 cu.ft. (volume of space) / 50 cu.ft. =
51.8 or 51,800 (maximum Btu/hr the space
can support)
WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be
operated is smaller than dened as an unconned
space or if the building is of unusually tight
construction, provide adequate combustion and
ventilation air by the methods described in the
National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1,
Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.
3. Add the Btu/hr of all the fuel-burning appliances
in the space such as, Vent–free heater, Gas water
heater, Gas furnace, Vented gas heater, Gas re-
place logs, and Other gas appliances*
*Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-
vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and
vents to the outdoors.
Example: Gas water heater 40,000 Btu/hr
Vent Free Heater + 20,000 Btu/hr
Total =60,000 Btu/hr
4. Compare the maximum Btu/hr the space can support
with the actual amount of Btu/hr used.
Example: 51,800 Btu/hr (maximum Btu/hr the
space can support)
60,000 Btu/hr (Actual amount of Btu/hr
used)
The space in the above example is a conned
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 as follows:
A. Rework worksheet, and the space of an adjoining
room. If the extra space provides an unconned
space, remove door to adjoining room or add
ventilation grills between the rooms. See Ventilation
Air From Inside Building (Figure 2).
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation
Air From Outdoors (Figure 3).
C. Install a lower Btu/hr heater if lower Btu/hr size
makes room unconned.
If actual Btu/hr used is less than the maximum Btu/
hr the space can support, the space is an uncon-
ned space. You will need no additional fresh air
ventilation.
VENTILATION AIR
Ventilation from Inside Building
This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconned
space. When ventilation to an adjoining unconned
space, you must provide two permanent openings:
one within 12” of the ceiling and one within 12” of
the oor on the wall connecting the two spaces (see
options 1 & 2 of g. 2). You can also remove door into
adjoining room (see option3, g 2). Follow the National
Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3,
Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of
ventilation grills or ducts.

LOCATING HEATER
This heater is designed to be mounted on the wall. The
heater can also be located on a non-combustible oor,
away from a wall by using the oor mounting stands
included with the heater. If installed on combustible
ooring such as carpeting, tile or other combustible
material other than wood ooring, the heater must be
placed on a wood panel the full width and depth of the
appliance.
For convenience and e󰀩ciency, install the heater:
• Where there is easy access for operation,
inspection, and service
• In the coldest part of the room.
• If planning to use fan, locate heater near an
electrical outlet.
CAUTION: If you install the heater in a home garage:
Heater pilot and burner must be at least 18 inches
above oor . Locate heater where moving vehicle will
not hit it.
CAUTION: This heater creates warm air currents.
These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to
heater. Installing heater next to vinyl or cloth wall
covering or operating heater where impurities (such
as tobacco smoke, aromatic candles, cleaning uids,
oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) are present in the air may
discolor walls.
WARNING: Never install the heater:
• In a bedroom (RD20LPT, RD30LPT, BF20LPT
or BF30LPT)
• In a recreational vehicle ·.
• Where curtains, furniture, clothing, or other
ammable objects are less than 36 inches from
the front, top, or sides of the heater.
• As a replace insert
• In high-tra󰀩c areas
• In windy or drafty areas
WARNING: Heater must be mounted to maintain
the minimum clearances shown in Figure 4. If
possible, provide greater clearances from the oor,
ceiling, and joining walls.
WARNING: Rework worksheet, adding the space
of the adjoining unconned space. The combined
space must have enough fresh air to supply all ap-
pliance in both spaces.
Ventilation from Outdoors
If necessary provide extra fresh air by using ventilation
grills or ducts. Connect these items directly to the
outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These
include attics* and crawl spaces. Follow the National
Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3,
Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of
ventilation grills or ducts.
*IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for inlet or
outlet into attic. If attic has a thermostat-controlled
power vent, heated air entering the attic will activate
the power vent.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture to
the air. Although this is benecial, installing heater
in rooms without enough ventilation air may cause
mildew to form from too much moisture. See Fresh Air
for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 5 through 6.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: Any change to this heater or its
controls can be dangerous.
NOTICE: This appliance is intended for supplemental
heating. Use this heater along with your primary heating
system. Do not install this heater as your primary heat
source. If you have a central heating system, you may

CAUTION: Never connect heater directly to the Propane
supply. This heater requires an external regulator (not
supplied). Install the external regulator between the
heater and Propane/LP supply.
IMPORTANT: The installer must supply an external
regulator. The external regulator will reduce the
incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14
inches of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas
pressure heater regulator damage could occur.
Install external regulator with the vent pointing
down. Pointing the vent down protects it from
freezing rain or sleet.
CAUTION: Use only new black iron or steel pipe.
Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used in certain
areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of larger
enough diameter to allow proper gas volume to heater.
If pipe is too small, undue loss of pressure will occur.
Installation must include an equipment shuto󰀨 valve,
union and plugged 1/8” NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within
reach of test gauge hookup. NPT tap must be upstream
from heater (see gure 12).

IMPORTANT: Install an equipment shuto󰀨 valve in an
accessible location. The equipment shuto󰀨 valve is for
turning on or shutting o󰀨 the gas to the appliance.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will
prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess
sealant in pipe could result in clogged heater fuel train.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to LP-Gas.
Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in gure
12. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach
for cleaning. A sediment trap traps moisture and
contaminants. This keeps them from going into heater.
If sediment trap is not installed or is installed improperly,
heater may not run correctly.
IMPORTANT: Hold pressure regulator with wrench
when connecting it to gas piping and/or ttings.
CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections for
leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all leaks
at once.
WARNING: Never use an open ame to check for
a gas leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and water
to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct
all leaks at once.

pushing the ignitor button. When lighting the pilot,
follow these instructions exactly.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the oor
because some gas is heavier than air and will settle
on the oor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Shut o󰀨 gas supply
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any
phone in your building.

bor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you can not reach your gas supplier, call the re
department.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas
control knob. Never use tools. If knob will not push
in or turn by hand, don’t try to repair it call a quali-
ed service technician or gas supplier. Force or
attempted repair may result in a re or explosion.
Pressure Testing Heater Gas Connections:
1. The appliance and its appliance main gas valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures in excess of ½
psi (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing
its equipment shuto󰀨 valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
2. Make sure control knob of heater is in OFF
position.

you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the safety
information above. If you do not smell gas, go
to the next step.
5. Push in and turn control knob
counterclockwise to PILOT. Press in control
knob for ve (5) seconds.
Note: The rst time that the heater is operated after
connecting the gas supply, the control knob should
be depressed for about 30 seconds. This will allow
air to bleed from the gas system. This may take
longer in some installations
Figure 16.
6. With control knob pressed in, push down and
release the ignition button. This will light pilot. If
needed keep pressing igniter button until pilot
lights.
7. Keep control knob pressed in for (30) seconds
after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds, release
control knob.
• If pilot does not stay lit, refer to Troubleshoot-
ing, pages 13 & 14. Also, contact a qualied
service person of gas supplier for repairs.
• If control knob does not pop up when released,
contact a qualied service person or gas
supplier for repairs.
8. When the pilot is lit, turn control knob
counterclockwise to heating level. The
main burner should light.
9. To select the desired heat level, turn the
temperature setting knob counterclockwise
to between 1 & 5.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION
FOR IR20LPT / IR30LPT: The thermostatic control
used simply turns on and o󰀨 the burner.
FOR BF20LPT / BF30LPT: The thermostatic control
used modulates the ame size as the temperature gets
closer to set point, then it turns o󰀨 the burner upon
reaching temperature.
The burner will cycle back on when room temperature
drops below the set temperature. The control knob can
be set to any heat level between 1 and 5. Selecting the
HI setting will cause the burner to remain on.
TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE
SHUTTING OFF HEATER
1. Turn control knob clockwise to the OFF
position.
2. Turn o󰀨 all electrical power to the appliance if
servicing is to be preformed.

SHUTTING OFF BURNER ONLY (PILOT STAYS LIT)
1. Turn control knob clockwise to the PILOT/
IGN position.
INSPECTING BURNER
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame pattern
often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 17 shows a correct pilot ame pattern and
incorrect pilot ame pattern. The incorrect pilot ame
pattern is not touching thermocouple. This will cause
the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple
cools, the heater will shut down. If pilot ame pattern is
incorrect, as shown in Figure 17:
• Turn heater o󰀨 (see To Turn OFF Gas to

CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burner
and circulation air passageways of heater clean.
Inspect these areas of heater before use. Have
the heater inspected yearly by a qualied service
person. Heater may need more frequent cleaning
due to excess lent from carpeting, bedding material,
pet hair, etc.
Make sure grille guard is in place before running
heater. If screen or grille guard is removed for
servicing it must be replaced prior to operating the
heater.
WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air
opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in
sooting and property damage.
CLEANING ODS/PILOT AND BURNER
• Use as vacuum cleaner, pressurized air or
small soft bristled brush to clean.
CLEANING BURNER PILOT AIR HOLE INLET
We recommend that you clean the unit every 2,500
hours of operation or every three months. We also
recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot
assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these
parts we recommend using compressed air no greater
than 30 psig.
This can be done by using a vacuum cleaner in the
blow position or using compressed air in a can. If
using canned air please follow the directions on the
can. If you don’t follow directions on the can you could
damage the burner or pilot assembly. In addition, the
directions below should also be followed.
1. Shut o󰀨 the unit, including the pilot. Allow the
unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.
2. Inspect burner and pilot for dust and dirt.
3. Blow air through the port/slots and holes in the
burner.
A yellow tip on the pilot ame indicates dust and dirt in
the pilot assembly. To clean the pilot assembly nd the
small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where
the pilot ame comes out of the pilot assembly (see
gure 18). With the unit o󰀨, lightly blow air through the
air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if
compressed air is not available.
