SUNGLO ™ INFRARED HEATERS
OWNER'S MANUAL
Before Starting Your Heater
Before you start your heater examine the heater
installation to determine that;
• Areas immediately around the heater
including the air inlet and the flue areas are
free from obstructions
• There is no obvious deterioration of the
heater.
• Portable type heaters must be placed on
level and adequate footing.
Starting and Shutting Down Your Heater
Sunglo heaters can utilize a variety of gas control
systems. With some models it is necessary to
manually light a pilot. Other models have a fully
automatic ignition system. Identify the model of
your heater on the Basic Lighting instructions
chart on page 6 and follow the lighting
instructions. If heater fails to light or does not
heat properly discontinue use of the heater and
contact your local distributor, or qualitied service
agency.
Performing Routine Maintenance
Overtime, particularly during longer periods of
disuse, the heater can accumulate dirt and debris
in and aroundthe pilot and burner. Routine
maintenance should be performed at least once a
year by a qualified service technician to insure the
heater is operating properly. More frequent
service may be required for heaters located near
waterfronts
Warning Labels
It is important that warning labels including the
lighting instructions are not removed from the
heater. Iflabels are damaged, replacement labels
are available from your local dealer or from the
factory
Stainless Steel Care
Stainless steel needs to be cared for like any other
surface. We recommend washing the stainless-
steel post and base with a mild detergent solution
and applying a stainless cleaner to bring back the
original shine. The stainless steel may be expected
to permanently darken around the top of the
heater.
Before You Remodel
Ifyou plan to make changes to the patio or
building structure after the heaters have been
installed, your heater installation must be
reviewed by a qualitied
agency to ensure that clearances from combustible
materials and ventilation requirements are
maintained after alterations are complete. When
plastic curtains or drops are used to enclose a patio,
you must take steps to ensure that all Sunglo
heaters have the required permanent access to
outside air. Ifthe patio is to be partially enclosed a
qualitied agency familiar with this type of heating
equipment must be consulted to ensure the safe
operation of the equipment.
Basic Lighting with the Sunglo™ Manual Control
(see lighting instructions pertaining to your heater
model on page 6.)
~Warning
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can result in death,
injury or property damage. Read instructions
thoroughly before installing or servicing this
equipment.

SUNGLO ™ INFRARED HEATERS
HEATER LAYOUT AND PATIO DESIGN
There are a number of
considerations in determining the
type and number of heaters to be
used and their best location on
your outdoor patio.
Concept of Patio Heating. Hot air from
conventional heaters is not an option for
heating an outdoor patio so a patio heater
uses radiant heat like we receive from the
sun
Radiant Heat: Is the type of heat you
receive from a fireplace, potbelly stove, or
the sun. It is an infrared wave length that
heats objects without first heating the
intervening air. Unlike ultraviolet light
there is no sunburn or sun tanning affect.
Infrared will not attract insects
Patio Heater: Is an unvented gas-fired
infrared heater designed to
concentrate radiant heat in outdoor
areas.
Definition of Outdoors: (for the
purpose of these instructions). An
appliance is considered to be outdoors
if installed with shelter no more
inclusive than:
1. With walls on all sides but with no
overhead cover.
2. Within a partial enclosure which
includes an overhead cover and no
more than two side walls. The side
walls may be parallel, as in a breeze
way, or at right angles to each
other.
3. Within a partial enclosure which
includes an overhead cover and up
to three side walls, as long as 30%
or more of the horizontal periphery
of the enclosure is permanently
open.
EFFECTIVE RANGE
(COVERAGE):
The comforting warmth from a single
Sunglo'"' Heater will cover a 12' to 20'
circle. The Sunglo™ is a "comfort"
heater, and the coverage is the area in
which people will receive a comforting
amount of warmth. Some people will
require more or less warmth than
others to be comfortable and will
either turn the heater up or down, or
move closer or farther away as desired
WHERE TO LOCATE PATIO
HEATERS:
Sunglo™ Heaters naturally attract
people to their infrared warm glow.
Locate heaters where people can
readily gather, sit or stand comfortably,
and where furnishing can easily be
moved to best accommodate the
radiating warmth .
GENERAL RULES FOR
LOCATING HEATES:
A Sunglo™ Patio Heater can operate
effectively to maintain comfort even in
completely exposed areas, although
weather protected areas are desirable.
Weather and wind protection allows
the air to be warmed to enhance the
direct radiant warm ing effect.
Breezy Conditions:
Sunglo™ heaters are designed to work
well under a variety of outdoor
conditions. However, wind and other
weather conditions will affect how well
the heater operates, or if it should be in
use at all. The heater can be safely
operated when the cross wind or
breeze is 0-10 mph. If heaters are
mounted on the edge of a precipice or
sea cliff where wind is directed upwards
into the reflector hood, damage to the
heater will occur. Upward thrusts of
wind can also occur because of wind
walls or other architectural elements
near the patio. The patio should be
designed to protect the heaters against
this type of condi tion .
Using Multiple Heaters:
When more than one heater is used in
an area, it is generally preferable to
locate them close together. Multiple
heaters located on 8' to 15' centers will
give overlapping heat patterns,
increasing the overall effective coverage
for each heater.
CONTROL SYSTEMS:
Sunglo™ heaters are available with a
variety of control systems from manual
controls requiring no electrical
connections to a 24 VAC fully automatic
ignition and control system (see Basic
Lighting instructions on page 6) . It is
recommended that when multiple
heaters are used, that the electrical
circuitry be arranged so heaters can be
switched on and off individually or in
groups to provide maximum flexibility
for heating the patio.

larger bolts on each side leg. Position the
frame to facilitate the connection of gas supply
piping, and on models equipped with an
electricalvalve, theelectricalsupplywiring.
2. Gas Supply Piping: The piping provided with
the heater is assembled to nestle in the
channel of the hanging frame. Connect an
additional length of 1/2 inch pipe long enough
toclearthetop oftheframe.
Screw the heater onto the 1/2" NPT x 1 inch
long nipple at the outlet end ofthe piping. The
heater should be turned to allow the control
handletoface in the desired direction.
Note: A 1/8 inch NPT plugged tapping,
accessible for test gauge connection, must be
installed immediately upstream of the gas
supplyconnection to the heater. Use asuitable
pipethread sealant on all gasconnections.
3. Heater Mounting: Set the heater (less ref
lector) with the piping assembly attached into
the suspended hanging frame. The piping will
nestle in the hanging bracket channel. Install
and tighten the two (2) 3/8 inch bolts supplied
with the frame and firmlysecure the base ofthe
heater in place.
Electrical Supply: On the A244V 24 volt
model, the electrical inlet is provided on the
right side of the heater opposite the gas inlet
piping. The electrician should supply a
connection box as shown adjacent to the
heater electrical inlet and run ½" rigid
waterproofconduitupto the rightjustinsidethe
frame channel.
WARNING: The minimum fire hazard
clearance marked on the heater must be
maintained from vehicles parked below the
heater.
The electrical input required to the heater is
0.550 Amps at 24V (rated at 8 Watts). A 4OVA
transformer will service upto three (3)heaters.
