LP gas and natural gas have man-made odorants added specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks.
If a gas leak occurs, you should be able to smell the fuel gas.
THAT’S YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION!
■Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas. Do
not operate any electrical switches. Do not pull any
power supply or extension cords. Do not light matches
or any other source of flame. Do not use your
telephone.
■Get everyone out of the building and away from the area
immediately.
■Close all propane gas tank or cylinder fuel supply
valves, or the main fuel supply valve located at the
meter if you use natural gas.
■Propane gas is heavier than air and may settle in low
areas. When you have reason to suspect a propane
leak, keep out of all low areas.
■Natural gas is lighter than air and can collect around
rafters or ceilings.
■Use your neighbor’s phone and call your fuel gas
supplier and your fire department. Do not re-enter the
building or area.
■Stay out of the building and away from the area until
declared safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas
supplier.
■FINALLY, let the fuel gas service person and the
firefighters check for escaped gas. Have them air out
the building and area before you return. Properly
trained service people must repair the leak, check for
further leakages, and then relight the appliance for you.
WARNING
■Do not use this heater for heating human living
quarters.
■Do not use in unventilated areas.
■The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed.
■Proper ventilation air must be provided to support the
combustion air requirements of the heater being used.
■Refer to the specification section of the heater’s
Owner’s Manual, heater dataplate, or contact the PSI to
determine combustion air ventilation requirements of
the heater.
■Lack of proper ventilation air will lead to improper
combustion.
■Improper combustion can lead to carbon monoxide
poisoning in humans leading to serious injury or death.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can include
headaches, dizziness and difficulty in breathing.
■Symptoms of improper combustion affecting livestock
can be disease, lower feed conversion, or death.
Asphyxiation Hazard
■Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot
smell the odor of the man-made chemical added to
propane (LP) or natural gas. You must determine if
you can smell the odorant in these fuel gases.
■Learn to recognize the odor of propane gas and natural
gas. Local propane gas dealers and your local natural
gas supplier (utility) will be more than happy to give you
a scratch and sniff pamphlet. Use it to become familiar
with the fuel gas odor.
■Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being
around an odor for a period of time can affect your
sensitivity to that particular odor. Odors present in
animal confinement buildings can mask fuel gas odor.
■The odorant in propane gas and natural gas is
colorless and the intensity of its odor can fade under
some circumstances.
■If there is an underground leak, the movement of gas
through the soil can filter the odorant.
■Propane gas odor may differ in intensity at different
levels. Since propane gas is heavier than air, there may
be more odor at lower levels.
■Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you
continue to detect any gas odor, no matter how small,
treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as
discussed previously.

Safety Precautions
FUEL GAS ODOR
ODOR FADING -- NO ODOR DETECTED
ATTENTION -- CRITICAL POINTS TO REMEMBER!
■Propane gas and natural gas have a distinctive odor.
Learn to recognize these odors. (Reference Fuel Gas
Odor and Odor Fading sections above.
■
If you have not been properly trained in repair and service
of propane gas and natural gas fueled heaters, then do
not attempt to light heater, perform service or repairs, or
make any adjustments to the heater on propane gas or
natural gas fuel system.
■Even if you are not properly trained in the service and
repair of the heater, ALWAYS be consciously aware of
the odors of propane gas and natural gas.
■A periodic sniff test around the heater or at the heater’s
joints; i.e. hose, connections, etc., is a good safety
practice under any conditions. If you smell even a small
amount of gas, CONTACT YOUR FUEL GAS SUPPLIER
IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT WAIT!

Safety Precautions

7
1. Read all safety precautions and follow PSI
recommendations when installing this heater. If
during the installation or relocating of heater, you
suspect that a part is damaged or defective, call a
qualified service agency for repair or replacement.
2.
Make sure the heater is properly positioned before use
and is hung level. Observe and obey all minimum safe
distances of the heater to the nearest combustible
materials. Minimum safe distances are given on the
heater nameplate and on page 4 of this manual.
3. This heater is approved for indoor use only.
4. The heater must have the proper gas regulator
installed for the application. A regulator must be
connected to the gas supply so that gas pressure at
the inlet to the gas valve is regulated within the range
specified on the dataplate at all times. Contact your
gas supplier, or PSI if you have any questions.
5. The heater’s gas regulator (with pressure relief valve)
should be installed outside of building. Any regulators
inside the buildings must be properly vented to the
outside. Local, state and national codes always apply
to regulator installation. Natural gas regulators with
vent limiting device may be mounted indoors without
venting to outdoors.
6. All gas pressure regulators must be installed in strict
accordance with the manufacturer’s safety
instructions. These instructions accompany each
regulator.
7. Insure that all accessories that ship within the heater
have been removed from inside of heater and
installed. This pertains to air diverters, hose,
regulator, etc.
8. Make certain that a sediment trap is installed at the
gas valve inlet to prevent foreign materials (pipe
compound, pipe chips and scale) from entering the
gas valve. Debris blown into the gas valve may cause
that valve to malfunction resulting in a serious gas
leak that could result in a possible fire or explosion
causing loss of products, building or even life. A
properly installed sediment trap will keep foreign
materials from entering the gas valve and protect the
safe functioning of that important safety component.
9. Any heater connected to a piping system must have
an accessible, approved manual shut off valve
installed within 6 ft. of the heater it serves.
10. Check all connections for gas leaks using approved
gas leak detectors. Gas leak testing is performed as
follows:
-- Check all pipe connections, hose connections,
fittings and adapters upstream of the gas control
with approved gas leak detectors.
-- In the event a gas leak is detected, check the
components involved for cleanliness and proper
application of pipe compound before further
tightening.
-- Furthermore tighten the gas connections as
necessary to stop the leak.
-- After all connections are checked and any leaks
are stopped, turn on the main burner.
-- Stand clear while the main burner ignites to
prevent injury caused from hidden leaks that could
cause flashback.
-- With the main burner in operation, check all
connections, hose connections, fittings and joints
as well as the gas control valve inlet and outlet
connections with approved gas leak detectors.
-- If a leak is detected, check the components
involved for cleanliness in the thread areas and
proper application of pipe compound before
further tightening.
-- Tighten the gas connection as necessary to stop
the leak.
-- If necessary, replace the parts or components
involved if the leak cannot be stopped.
-- Ensure all gas leaks have been identified and
repaired before proceeding.
11. A qualified service agency must check for proper
operating gas pressure upon installation of the
heater.

by a qualified gas heater service person. For normal start-
up, simply set the thermostat above room temperature. The
heater will start.
1. Open all manual fuel supply valves and check for gas
leaks using approved leak detectors. The gas control
valve on the heater has a manual shut-off feature
incorporated into the valve assembly and will be
located within the gas control and electrical
enclosure. Open the enclosure and make sure the
indicator on the valve is turned to the “on” position.
Close and latch the enclosure. See Fig. 6.
FIG. 6
2. Connect the electrical cord to an approved electrical
outlet.
3. Set the thermostat (if supplied) to desired room
temperature.
4. This heater includes a direct ignition control module
for purposes of controlling the timing of the ignition
process of the heater as well as monitoring of the
safety functions. The module is contained within the
gas control and electrical enclosure. On the module
is a red light emitting diode (LED). This LED indicates
the status of the heater. The LED is visible external
of the control enclosure through the plastic lens. A
constant light from the LED is an indicator that the
heater is functioning correctly. Any flash pattern by
the LED is indicative that there is a problem in the
operation of the heater. Refer to the troubleshooting
decal on the access panel at the fan motor end of the
heater for assistance in troubleshooting. Only
qualified and properly trained personnel shall service
or repair the heater.
5. On a call for heat, the motor will start up and run for
five (5) seconds before the ignitor starts to spark.
This pre-purge is a safety feature and a normal
operational characteristic prior to ignition taking
place.
NOTE: It is normal for air to be trapped in the gas
hose on new installations. The heater may attempt
more than one trial for ignition before the air is finally
purged from the line and ignition takes place.
6. The igntion control will make up to three trials for
ignition. Each trial for ignition will take approximately
10 seconds. The first three trials for ignition will
occur within 40 seconds if ignition is not achieved. A
15 minute wait period will then begin. After the 15
minute time span has elapsed, the control will make
three more trials for ignition. If igntion is not achieved
after after the final trial, the control system will lock
out and the three flash light pattern will be indicated
by the LED.

ATTENTION
■The following explains a typical procedure to be followed
in checking gas pressures.
■The gas pressures will vary depending upon model
number and fuel type.
■Consult the dataplate on the heater or page 4 in this
manual for specific pressures to be used in conjunction
with this procedure.
■Gas pressure measured at the inlet to the gas valve is
Inlet Pressure and gas pressure measured at the outlet
of the gas valve is burner Manifold Pressure.
A. Preparation
1. Obtain two pressure gauges capable of reading up to
35 in. W.C.
2. Disconnect the heater from the electrical supply and
close the fuel supply valve to the heater inlet.
3. Open the control box.
4. Brush or blow off any dust and dirt on or in the
vicinity of the gas control valve.
B. Gauge Installation
1. Remove the inlet and outlet pressure tap plugs. See
Fig. 12.
2. Securely connect a pressure gauge to each pressure
tap port.
3. Open the fuel supply valves to the heater and
reconnect the heater electrical supply.
4. Start the heater.
C. Reading Pressures
1. With the heater operating, the pressure gauges
should read the pressures specified on the dataplate.
2. Do the readings at the inlet and outlet pressure
gauges agree with that specified on the dataplate? If
so, then no further checking or adjustment is
required. Proceed to Section D.
3. If the inlet pressures do not agree with that specified
on the dataplate, then the building system regulator
controlling gas pressure to the heaters requires
adjustment.
4. If the inlet pressures are correct and the burner
manifold pressure does not agree with that specified
on the dataplate, then the gas control valve’s internal
pressure regulator requires adjustment. See Fig. 13
for regulator location.
D. Completion
1. Once inlet and burner manifold pressures have been
confirmed and/or properly set, close the fuel supply
valve to the heater and allow the heater to burn off
any gas remaining in the gas supply line.
2. Disconnect the heater from its electrical supply.
3. Remove the gauges.
4. Reinstall the pressure tap plugs and tighten securely.
