INTRODUCTION- CONT’D.
For your protection this heater is equipped with an Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) pilot system. Never operate heater if ODS has been damaged or tampered with as this could expose you to Carbon Monoxide (a colorless, odorless gas) that could result in injury or death. Early simls of Carbon Monoxide poisoning resemble intluenza, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you develop these symptoms GET FRESH AIR AT ONCE. Turn off heater and call a qualified selaTicelnan to check heater. Some people are more affected by Carbon Monoxide than others: Including pre_lant women, persons with a heart or lung disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
OPERATION
Infrared heaters “heat like the sun” with ahnost instantaneous, safe, clean burning “waves” of intiared heat. Like the sun, they must “see” the object to be heated. Make sure they are installed away tiom furniture or any other object which might block the intiared “waves”. The Cozy thennostatically controlled units offer the additional benefit of automatically cycling the heating to maintain just the right room temperature. Ventfree gas room heaters are designed strictly tr “supplemental” room heat use and should never be installed as “sole source heating”.
ROOM HEATER SPECIFICATIONS
Your room heater comes packed in a single carton. Before installation, check the rating plate to veril
that the Model Number is correct and that the room heater is equipped for the type gas you intend to use.

FRESH AIR FOR COMBUSTION,

VENTILATION

AND HEAT DISTRIBUTION

With todays eneigy efficient homes, it is possible to make your home so air tight that it can result in stale air, dry rot, mold development and host of other related problems. Gas burning appliances need fresh air for combustion as well as for good distribution of heated air throughout the home. The l_llowing mlide provides good general rules for classifying and properly ventilating most homes.

“The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.81n3per Kw) of the ag_egate input rating ofatt appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is equal to or greater than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8m 3per Kw) of the aggregate input rating ofalt appliances installed in that space. Rooms comlnunicating directly with the space in which the appliance is installed, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.”
“This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air are made. Use the l_llowing example to determine if the heater is being installed in a confined or unconfined space.”

STEP 1. First find the cubic feet of area to be heated lenath x width x heiaht. NOTE: Include a W adjoining rooms that cannot be separated by closing a door or that have a air exchange _itte that cannot be closed between rooms. EXAMPLE: Area size 25 ft. x 15 ft. x 7-1/2 ft. 2,812.5 cubic feet.

STEP2. Divide area cubic feet by 50. EXAMPLE: 2,812.5 50 56.25. Multiplythisnumberby 1,000 for total Btu input room can support. EXAMPLE: 56.25 x 1,000 56,250 Bin.

STEP3.

List all gas burning appliances in this area and total the combined Btu input. EXAMPLE:

Cozy vent fiee heater. …………………….

20,000 Bm

Gas water heater …………………………..

58,000 Bm

Gas range (all burners & oven on) ………..

28,000 Bm

106,000 Btu

Search

FRESH AIR FOR COMBUSTION, VENTILATION AND HEAT DISTRIBUTION – CONTD.
STEP 4. Compare the total Btu the area can support (from Step 2) to the total Btu in the area the heater wilt be installed (fioln Step 3). If the total froln Step 2 is larger this is considered an unconfined space, ifBtu total froln Step 3 is larger this is considered a confined space and provisions must be made t_radditional combustion and ventilation air. EXAMPLE: Btu area can support is 56,250, total Btu in area is 106,000 this would be a confined space.
NOTE: A third construction class is one with unusually tight construction, defined as, construction where: (A) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 per (6x 10-11 Kg per pa-sec-m 2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and, (B) Weatherstripping has been added on openabte windows and doors, and, (C) Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall ceiling joints, between walt panels, at penetration for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at other openings.
“WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined space, or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.” Examples would be to provide two permanent openings either to an adjoining room, or to the outside. See the National Fuel Gas Code t_r details. See Fibre 9 & Figure 10 below.

IMPORTANT

SAFETY BULLETIN ON YOUR GAS CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HEATING EQUIPMENT

AND PILOT LIGHT

WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW CAN HURT YOU.

Your pilot light system has been designed for sate and reliable operation. Although safety mechanisms are built-in, the potential for hazard exists. This information is intended to help you avoid these hazards.

YOUR GAS CONTROL AND PILOT LIGHT
SYSTEM
Your gas control and pilot light system has a safety device whose purpose is to shut-offthe gas supply to the appfiance if the pilot light goes out. If you have trouble lighting the pilot or keeping it lit, it may mean that this safety device is warning you that there is a problem with your system. Inspection and repairs or replacement must be made by a trained gas service technician.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS … · Do not try to light any appliance. · Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use
any phone in your building. · Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
· If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

TAMPERING

IS DANGEROUS

The pilot safety system may also not work if

you do not follow the lighting instructions

carefully or if you tamper with the gas control

that you use to light the pilot. Tampering with

the gas control, particularly

with tools, can

damage the safety mechanism in the control

and can allow gas to leak. This can result in a

fire or explosion causing property damage,

personal injury or death.

CRITICAL SAFETY POINTS TO REMEMBER…

· Your gas has been odorized so that you can

smell it. Always smell around for gas before

lighting your appliance.

· Sniff for L.E-gas at floor level. LP-gas is

heavier than air and may temporarily floor level.

IF YOU SMELL GAS, DON’T LIGHT IT

IF YOU CAN’T LIGHT IT, DON’T FIGHT IT!

American Gas Assoc iation

THIS IS NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT

· If you smell gas, do not attempt to light the pilot. Do not cause a spark by turning on or off electrical switches or appliances or by using the phone. Turn off the gas to the appliances and call your gas supplier from another location.
· If your gas control has gotten wet as the result of flooding or other wetting, it must be replaced immediately by a trained gas service
technician. Water can lead to damage of the
internal safety mechanism in the gas control and can create a hazardous condition.
