11. Correct installation of the re media, proper location of the heater, and annual cleaning are
necessary to avoid potential problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting from improper installation
or operation, can settle on surfaces outside the replace. See re media placement instructions for
proper installation.
12. WARNING: Avoid any drafts that alter burner ame patterns. Do not allow fans to blow directly into
replace. Do not place a blower inside burn area of rebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that alter
burner ame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will occur.
13. Caution: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce combustion by-products including soot. Vent
free heaters will not lter or clean soot produced by these types of products. In addition, the smoke
and/or aromatics (scents) may be reburned in the vent free heater which can produce odors. It is
recommended to minimize the use of candles, incense, etc. while the vent free heater is in operation.
14. Keep room area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other ammable vapors and
liquids.
15. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater. They are not intended to be the primary
heating appliance.
16. Unvented gas heaters emit moisture into the living area. In most homes of average construction,
this does not pose a problem. In houses of extremely tight construction, additional mechanical
ventilation is recommended.
17. During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various components of this appliance are treated
with certain oils, lms or bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful but may produce
annoying smoke and smells as they are burned o during the initial operation of the heater; possibly
causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence. The initial
break-in operation should last two to three hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide
maximum ventilation by opening windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining
after this initial break-in period will be slight and will disappear with continued use.
18. Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above
2,000 feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level. Refer to the
National Fuel Gas Code.
19. The heater and its main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psig (3.5 kPa).
