with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may not be working properly.
Get fresh air immediately! Have heater serviced. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide
than others. These include pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease, people who are
NATURAL AND PROPANE/LP GAS: Natural and Propane/LP gases are odorless. An odor-making
agent is added to the gas. The odor helps you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to the
gas can fade. Gas may be present even though no odor exists. Make certain you read and under-
stand all warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your guide to operating this heater safely.
WARNING: Any change to this heater or its controls can be dangerous.
WARNING: Do not use any accessories not approved for use with this heater.
WARNING:
WARNING: Heater becomes very hot when operating. Keep children and adults away from hot
surfaces to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Heater will remain hot for a time after shutoff. Allow

4. This heater shall not be installed in a bedroom or bathroom.
5. Do not use this heater as a wood-burning heater. Use only the logs provided with the heater.
6. Do not add extra logs or ornaments such as pine cones, vermiculite or rock wool. Using these

8. To prevent the creation of soot, follow the instructions in Cleaning and Maintenance, page 21-22.
9. Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet cleaner or similar products, turn heater off. If heated,
the vapors from these products may create a white powder residue within burner box or on adjacent
walls or furniture.
10. This heater needs fresh air ventilation to run properly. This heater has an Oxygen Depletion
Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The ODS shuts down the heater if not enough fresh air is
available. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, page 8. If heater keeps shutting off, see
Troubleshooting, page 23-25.

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 Nation Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International Fuel Gas Code, or applicable local codes.

input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms connecting directly with the space in
which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a
are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
* Adjoining rooms are connecting only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation
grills between them.
The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and venti-
lation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional
fresh air.
a) walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder
with a rating of one perm (6x10-11kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed
and
b) weather stripping has been added on windows that can be opened and on doors and
c) caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames,
penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at other openings.
If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air.
See “Ventilation Air From Outdoors” (page 9). If your home does not meet all of the
three criteria above, proceed to “Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Heater Location”.

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION
Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with
doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space Length × Width × Height = cu. ft. (volume of space)
Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) × 16 ft.(width) × 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 of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cu. ft. 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 Example:
Gas heater logs __________BTU/hr Gas water heater 30,000 BTU/hr
Other gas appliances*+ ____BTU/hr Vent-free heater + 26,000 BTU/hr
Total = ____BTU/hr Total = 56,000 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 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

b) Vent room directly to the outdoors. See “Ventilation Air From Outdoors”, page 9.
You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.

IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for
inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a
thermostat-controlled power vent. Heated
air entering the attic will activate the power
vent. Rework worksheet, adding the space

air to supply all appliances in both spaces.
