GENERAL INFORMATION
The CFST and CFPF Series Unvented Room
Heaters covered in this manual feature ceramic
fibersplitlogswhichglow realisticallywhenthe
heater is operating.
These heaters have a standing pilot and are
manually controlled through the use of a milli-
volt gas valve.
Asparkignitionsystem(piezo)allowstheheater
pilot gas to be lit without the use of matches or
batteries and permits operation of the heater
during a power outage.
These heaters are fitted with a specially de-
signed pilot (ODS) which responds to the
amount of oxygen available in the room and
shuts the heater off before the oxygen level
drops below 18%. The pilot can be relit only
when fresh air is available. Refer to the Com-
bustion and Ventilation Air section.
These heaters may also equipped with an
optional battery powered electronic Carbon
Monoxide Safety Shut-Off (COSS) specially
designed to respond to the amount of carbon
monoxide present in the room air. The carbon
monoxide detector will sound an alarm and
shut the appliances off within 30 minutes
when the amount of carbon monoxide present
in the air entering the unit rises above 100
ppm. Time to respond reduces to 15 minutes
maximum when carbon monoxide levels ex-
ceed 400 ppm.
The CFST and CFPF Series Unvented Room
Heaters are designed to be built into a framed
wall.
This heater has been tested to the standards of
ANSI Z21.11.2 unvented heaters.
Do not install these unvented room heaters in a
bedroom or bathroom as all units exceed maxi-
mum allowable BTU/Hr input of 10,000.

OTHER FUELS OR COMBINATION OF
FUELS WILL DEGRADE THE PERFOR-
MANCE OF THIS SYSTEM AND MAY BE
DANGEROUS.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the
fluwith headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If
you have these signs, obtain fresh air immedi-
ately. Turn off the gas supply to the heater and
have it serviced by a qualified professional, as
it may not be operating correctly.
•Due to high temperatures, the heater should
belocated out of trafficandaway from furniture
and draperies.
•Children and adults should be alerted to the
hazardofhighsurfacetemperaturesandshould
stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
•Young children should be carefully super-
vised when they are in the same room with the
heater.
•Do not place clothing or other flammable
materialonornear the heater for the purpose of
drying.
•Installation and repair should be done by a
qualified service person. The heater should be
inspected before use and at least annually by a
professional service person. More frequent
cleaning may be required due to excessive lint
from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is im-
portant that control compartments, burners
andcirculatingairpassagewaysoftheheaterbe
kept clean.
•Allow the heater to cool before servicing.
Always shut off any electricity or gas to the
heater while performing service work.
•Do not install these heaters in a bedroom or
bathroom.
•The installation must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
•The heater and its individual shut-off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
pipingsystemwhileperforming any testsofthe
gas supply piping system at pressures in ex-
cess of ¹⁄₂ psig.
•The heater must be isolated from the gas

CODES
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 Insti-
tute, Inc. (1430 Broadway, New York, NY,
10018) or National Fire Protection Association,
Inc. (Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA, 02269).
COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
These heaters shall not be installed in a con-
fined space. The heater may be located in
unusually tight construction provided the
space is unconfined, or if confined, is pro-
vided with two permanent openings commu-
nicating directly with an additional room(s)
of sufficient volume so that the combined
volume of all connected spaces meets the
criteria for an unconfined space, (National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 1992, Section
5.3). Generally 50 ft 3per 1,000 BTU input of
all operating appliances in the space.
The National Fuel Gas Code defines a con-
fined 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 communicat-
ing directly with the space in which the appli-
ances are installed, through openings not
furnishedwithdoors, are considered a part of
the unconfined space.
Unusually tight construction is defined as con-
struction where:
a. wall and ceilings exposed to the outside
atmosphere have a continuous water vapor
retarder with a rating or one perm or less with
openings gasketed or sealed, and
b. weather stripping has been added on oper-
able windows and doors, and
c.caulkingorsealantsareappliedtoareassuch
as joints around window and door frames,
between sole plates and floors, between wall-
ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetra-
tions for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines,
and at other openings.
Use the following equations to determine if you
have a confined or unconfined space.
1. Determine the volume of space — ft 3.
Length x Width x Height = _____ ft 3
(Include adjoining rooms with doorless pas-
sageways or ventilation grills between
rooms.)
Example:16'(L) x16'(W)x8'(H) =2048ft 3

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATION NOT TO SCALE.

Example:
CFST/PF heater 34,000 BTU/Hr
Gas appliance #1 32,000 BTU/Hr
(water heater) Total = 66,000 BTU/Hr
* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances.
Direct-vent is sealed combustion and draws
combustion air from the outdoors.
4. Compare the maximum BTU/Hr the space
can support with the actual amount of BTU/
Hr used.
_________ BTU/Hr
(max. the space can support)
_________ BTU/Hr
(actualamountofBTU/Hrused)
Example:
40,960 BTU/Hr
(max. the space can support)
66,000 BTU/Hr
(actualamountofBTU/Hrused)
The space in the above example is a confined
space because the actual BTU/Hr used is more
than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can sup-
port. You must provide additional fresh air.
WARNING: IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE
HEATERMAYBEOPERATEDISSMALLER
THAN THAT DEFINED AS AN UNCON-
FINED SPACE OR IF THE BUILDING IS OF
UNUSUALLY TIGHT CONSTRUCTION,
PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION AIR BY ONE OF THE METH-
ODSDESCRIBED IN THENATIONAL FUEL
GAS CODE, ANSI Z223.1 1992, SECTION
5.3 OR APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES.
Your options are:
a.Rework equations adding the space of ad-
joining room(s). If the extra volume pro-
vides an unconfined space, then remove
doororaddventilationgrillsbetweenrooms.
RefertoNationalFuelGasCode,ANSIZ223.1
1992, Section 5.3.
b.Vent room directly to the outdoors. Refer to
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 1992,
Section 5.3.
If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the
maximumBTU/Hrthe space can support, then
the space is an unconfined space. You will
need no additional fresh air ventilation for an
unconfined space.
LOCATION OF FIREPLACE
Carefully select the best location for installa-
tion of your CF series Unvented Room Heater.
The following factors should be taken into
consideration:
•Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork
and windows.
•Location must not be affected by drafts
caused by kitchen exhaust fans, return air
registers for forced air furnaces/air condition-
ers, windows or doors.
•Installation must provide adequate ventila-
tion and combustion air.
•Do not install these series heaters in a
sleeping room or bathroom.
•Never obstruct the front opening of the
heater or restrict the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
•This appliance may be installed in an after-
market* manufactured (Mobile) Home, where
not prohibited by state or local codes.
*Aftermarket: Completion of sale, not for
purpose of resale, from the manufacturer.
•Minimize modifications to existing con-
struction.
To ensure even heat distribution, it is best to
position the heater centrally within the rooms.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation where
the heater is installed. The gas appliance will
shut off if the oxygen level falls below 18%.
The appliance should be mounted on a fully
supported base extending the full width and
depth of the unit. The appliance may be located
onornearconventionalconstructionmaterials.
However, if installed on combustible materials,
such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a metal or
wood barrier covering the entire bottom sur-
face must be used.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed.
WARNING: MAINTAINMINIMUMCLEAR-
ANCES.
Do not install in the vicinity of gasoline or other
flammable liquids. The heater must be kept
clear and free from these combustible materi-
als and may not be located near where they are
stored.

Figures 1 and 2 are maintained.
These appliances are uniquely suited for in-
stallations requiring a utility shelf positioned
directlyabove the fireplace. Utility shelves like
these are commonly used for locating televi-
sion sets and decorative plants.
To provide for the lowest possible shelf sur-
face, combustible materials used to support a
utility shelf directly above these appliances
should be positioned just above the appliance
top spacers. The minimum height from the
base of the appliance to the underside of
combustible materials used to construct a
utility shelf is 42 ³⁄₄” (1086 mm).
2. 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= 40.96
or 40,960 BTU/Hr the space can support.
3. Add the BTU/Hr of all the fuel burning appli-
ances in the space.
