Today’s homes are built more energy effi-cient than ever. New materials, increasedinsulation, and new construction methodshelp reduce heat loss in homes. Homeowners weather strip and caulk aroundwindows and doors to keep the cold air outand the warm air in. During heating months,home owners want their homes as airtightas possible.

While it is good to make your home energyefficient, your home needs to breathe. Freshair must enter your home. All fuel-burningappliances need fresh air for proper com-bustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, heaters, clothes dryers, andfuel burning appliances draw air from thehouse to operate. You must provide ad-equate fresh air for these appliances. Thiswill insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

Confined and Unconfined Space

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1defines a confined space as a space whosevolume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggre-gate input rating of all appliances installedin that space and an unconfining space as aspace whose volume is not less than 50cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 perkw) of the aggregate input rating of allappliances installed in that space. Roomscommunicating directly with the space inwhich the appliances are installed*, throughopenings not furnished with doors, are con-sidered a part of the unconfined space.

This heater shall not be installed in a con-fined space or unusually tight constructionunless provisions are provided for adequatecombustion and ventilation air.

* Adjoining rooms are communicating onlyif there are doorless passageways or ventila-tion grills between them.

WARNING: This heater shallnot be installed in a confined spaceor unusually tight constructionunless provisions are providedfor adequate combustion and ven-tilation air. Read the following in-structions to insure proper freshair for this and other fuel-burningappliances in your home.

PROVIDING ADEQUATEVENTILATIONThe following are excerpts from NationalFuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1, Sec-tion 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation.

All spaces in homes fall into one of the threefollowing ventilation classifications:

1. Unusually Tight Construction

2. Unconfined Space

3. Confined Space

The information on pages 4 through 6 willhelp you classify your space and provideadequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and win-dows may provide enough fresh air forcombustion and ventilation. However, inbuildings of unusually tight construction,you must provide additional fresh air.

Unusually tight construction is de-fined as construction where:a. walls and ceilings exposed to the

outside atmosphere have a con-tinuous water vapor retarder witha rating of one perm (6 x 10 -11 kgper pa-sec-m 2) or less with open-ings gasketed or sealed and

b. weather stripping has beenadded on openable windows anddoors and

c. caulking or sealants are appliedto areas such as joints aroundwindow and door frames, be-tween sole plates and floors, be-tween wall-ceiling joints, be-tween wall panels, at penetra-tions for plumbing, electrical, andgas lines, and at other openings.

If your home meets all of the threecriteria above, you must provide ad-ditional fresh air. See Ventilation AirFrom Outdoors , page 6 .

If your home does not meet all of thethree criteria above, proceed to Deter-mining Fresh-Air Flow For HeaterLocation, page 5.

OWNER’S MANUAL


DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION

Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space

Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.

Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills betweenthe rooms.

1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).

Length x Width x Height = ____________________ cu. ft. (volume of space)

Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)

If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume ofthe space.

2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

_________________(volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = 51.2 or 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

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

Vent-free heater _________________Btu/Hr

Gas water heater* _________________Btu/Hr

Gas furnace _________________Btu/Hr

Vented gas heater _________________Btu/Hr

Gas heater logs _________________Btu/Hr

Other gas appliances* + _________________Btu/Hr

Total = _________________Btu/Hr

* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the outdoors.

4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.

_________________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)

_________________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)

Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)

56,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)

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 support.You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are as follows:

A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined space, remove door to adjoiningroom or add ventilation grills between rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building, page 6.

B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 6.

C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr size makes room unconfined.

If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is an unconfined space. You will need noadditional fresh air ventilation.

WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined spaceor if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one ofthe methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

Ventilation Air From Outdoors

Provide extra fresh air by using ventilationgrills or ducts. You must provide two per-manent openings: one within 12" of theceiling and one within 12" of the floor.Connect these items directly to the outdoorsor spaces open to the outdoors. These spacesinclude attics and crawl spaces. Follow theNational Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSZ223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion andVentilation for required size of ventilationgrills or ducts.

IMPORTANT: Do not provide openingsfor inlet or outlet air into attic if attic hasa thermostat-controlled power vent.Heated air entering the attic will activatethe power vent.

INSTALLATION

WARNING: A qualified ser-vice person must install heater.Follow all local codes.

CAUTION: This heater cre-ates warm air currents. Thesecurrents move heat to wall sur-faces next to heater. Installingheater next to vinyl or cloth wallcoverings or operating heaterwhere impurities (such as to-bacco smoke, aromatic candles,cleaning fluids, oil or kerosenelamps, etc.) in the air exist, maydiscolor walls.

CHECK GAS TYPEUse only propane/LP gas. If your gas supplyis not propane/LP gas, do not install heater.Call dealer where you bought heater forproper type heater.

IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add mois-ture to the air. Although this is beneficial,installing heater in rooms without enoughventilation air may cause mildew to formfrom too much moisture. See Air for Com-bustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.

CLEARANCES TOCOMBUSTIBLES(Vent-Free Operation Only)

WARNING: Maintain the mini-mum clearances. If you can, pro-vide greater clearances fromfloor, ceiling, and adjoining sideand back walls.

Carefully follow the instructions below. Thisstove is a freestanding unit designed to setdirectly on the floor. IMPORTANT: Youmust maintain minimum wall and ceilingclearances during installation. The mini-mum clearances are shown in Figure 4.Measure from outermost point of stove top.

Minimum Wall and CeilingClearances (see Figure 4)A. Clearances from outermost point of

stove top to any combustible side wallshould not be less than 12 inches.

B. Clearances from outermost point ofstove top to any combustible back wallshould not be less than 6 inches (In-cludes corner installations).

C. Clearances from the stove top to theceiling should not be less than 48inches.

NOTICE: This heater is intendedfor use as supplemental heat. Usethis heater along with your pri-mary heating system. Do not in-stall this heater as your primaryheat source. If you have a centralheating system, you may runsystem’s circulating blower whileusing heater. This will help circu-late the heat throughout thehouse.

CAUTION: Avoid damage toregulator. Hold gas regulator withwrench when connecting it to gaspiping and/or fittings.

CAUTION: Use only new,black iron or steel pipe. Inter-nally-tinned copper tubing maybe used in certain areas. Checkyour local codes. Use pipe of 1/2"diameter or greater to allowproper gas volume to heater. Ifpipe is too small, undue loss ofpressure will occur.

Installation must include an equipmentshutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPTtap. Locate NPT tap within reach for testgauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstreamfrom heater (see Figure 7).

IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoffvalve in an accessible location. The equip-ment shutoff valve is for turning on orshutting off the gas to the appliance.

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to malethreads. This will prevent excess sealantfrom going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipecould result in clogged heater valves.

WARNING: Never connectheater to private (non-utility) gaswells. This gas is commonlyknown as wellhead gas.

CAUTION: Use pipe joint seal-ant that is resistant to liquid pe-troleum (LP) gas.

We recommend that you install a sedimenttrap in supply line as shown in Figure 7.Locate sediment trap where it is withinreach for cleaning. Install in piping systembetween fuel supply and heater. Locate sedi-ment trap where trapped matter is not likelyto freeze. A sediment trap traps moistureand contaminants. This keeps them fromgoing into heater controls. If sediment trapis not installed or is installed wrong, heatermay not run properly.

THERMOSTAT CONTROLOPERATION

The thermostat control knob can be set toany comfort level between Hi and Lo. Thethermostat will gradually modulate the heatoutput and flame height from higher tolower settings, or pilot, in order to maintainthe comfort level you select. The ideal com-fort setting will vary by household depend-ing upon the amount of space to be heated,the output of the central heating system, etc.

Note: Selecting the Hi setting with thecontrol knob will cause the burners toremain fully on, without modulating downin most cases.

CLEANING ANDMAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off heaterand let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keepcontrol areas, burner, and circu-lating air passageways of heaterclean. Inspect these areas ofheater before each use. Haveheater inspected yearly by a quali-fied service person. Heater mayneed more frequent cleaning dueto excessive lint from carpeting,bedding material, pet hair, etc.

CABINETAir Passageways• Use a vacuum cleaner or pressurized air

to clean.

Exterior• Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild

soap and water mixture. Wipe the cabi-net to remove dust.

LOGS• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to

Installing Logs, page 10, to properly re-place logs.

• Replace log(s) if broken or chipped(dime-sized or larger).

MAIN BURNERPeriodically inspect all burner flame holeswith the heater running. All slotted burnerflame holes should be open with yellowflame present. All round burner flame holesshould be open with a small blue flamepresent. Some burner flame holes may be-come blocked by debris or rust, with no flamepresent. If so, turn off heater and let cool.Either remove blockage or replace burner.Blocked burner flame holes will create soot.

Review your video included with your heaterfor additional cleaning instructions.

CLEANING BURNERINJECTOR HOLDER ANDPILOT AIR INLET HOLEThe primary air inlet holes allow the properamount of air to mix with the gas. This pro-vides a clean burning flame. Keep these holesclear of dust, dirt, lint, and pet hair. Cleanthese air inlet holes prior to each heatingseason. Blocked air holes will create soot. Werecommend that you clean the unit every threemonths during operation and have heater in-spected yearly by a qualified service person.

We also recommend that you keep the burnertube and pilot assembly clean and free of dustand dirt. To clean these parts we recommendusing compressed air no greater than 30 PSI.Your local computer store, hardware store, orhome center may carry compressed air in acan. You can use a vacuum cleaner in theblow position. If using compressed air in acan, please follow the directions on the can.If you don't follow directions on the can, youcould damage the pilot assembly.

1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot.Allow the unit to cool for at least thirtyminutes.

2. Inspect burner, pilot, and primary airinlet holes on injector holder for dustand dirt (see Figure 24).

3. Blow air through the ports/slots andholes in the burner.

4. Check the injector holder located at theend of the burner tube again. Remove anylarge particles of dust, dirt, lint, or pet hairwith a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.

5. Blow air into the primary air holes onthe injector holder.

6. In case any large clumps of dust havenow been pushed into the burner repeatsteps 3 and 4.

Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip onthe pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilotassembly. There is a small pilot air inlet holeabout two inches from where the pilot flamecomes out of the pilot assembly (see Figure 25).With the unit off, lightly blow air through the airinlet hole. You may blow through a drinkingstraw if compressed air is not available.
