OPERATIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION (Cont.)

OPERATING YOUR UNVENTED GAS APPLIANCE SAFELY AND CORRECTLY

N. This appliance is intended for supplemental heating, and is not to be used as a

primary heating source. Water vapor produced by vent-free burner systems can create

moisture problems in a home when operated for extended periods of time. If condensation

begins to occur, open your damper or a window.

As a supplemental zone heater, this set should not be used more than six continuous

hours per day or more than 40 hours per week. More frequent use indicates that this

unit is being used as a primary heat source. The higher presence of carbon monoxide

generated by this amount of use can be considered unsafe.

O. If the gas quality is poor or pressure low, your ODS pilot may not stay lit, the burners

may produce soot, or the unit may backﬁ re. Contact your local gas supplier immediately.

P. This appliance is designed for adults to be present while in operation. Do not leave this

unit burning when unattended or while sleeping. This is an attended appliance.

Q. WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result

in sooting and property damage.

R. WARNING: All previously applied loose material, such as embers, must be removed

prior to reapplication. All replacement loose material must be purchased from the

original appliance manufacturer.

S. Unusually tight construction is deﬁ ned as:

a. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor

retarder with a rating of 1 perm (6x10

kg per pa-sec-m

) or less with openings that

are sealed or use gaskets;

b. Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors; AND

c. Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door

frames; between sole plates and ﬂ oors; between wall-ceiling joints; between wall

panels; at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines; and at other openings.

CLEANING AND SERVICING IMPORTANT INFORMATION

It is imperative that you maintain your unvented gas appliance

by having it cleaned and serviced regularly. A qualiﬁ ed

professional service technician shall inspect and service this

unit at least annually. (Read and follow the CLEANING AND

SERVICING sections for details.)

Failure to provide reasonable and necessary maintenance as

outlined in the owner’s manual will cause your appliance to

malfunction and will void your warranty.
