VENTILATION

WARNING: FOLLOW THE MINIMUM FRESH, OUTSIDE

AIR VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS. IF PROPER

FRESH, OUTSIDE AIR VENTILATION IS NOT

PROVIDED, CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

CAN OCCUR. PROVIDE PROPER FRESH, OUTSIDE

AIR VENTILATION BEFORE RUNNING HEATER.

Provide a fresh air opening of at least three square feet for

each 100,000 Btu/Hr rating. Provide extra fresh air if more

heaters are being used.

PROPANE SUPPLY

Propane / L.P. gas and Propane / L.P. tank(s) are to be

furnished by the user.

Use this heater only with a propane vapor withdrawal

supply system. See Chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage

and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA 58

and the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA B149.2. Your

local library or fire department will have this booklet.

The amount of Propane / L.P. gas ready for use from

Propane / L.P. tanks varies. Two factors decide this amount:

1. The amount of Propane / L.P. gas in tank(s)
2. The temperature of tank(s)
The chart below shows the number of 100 pound (45

kg) tanks needed to run this heater.

Do not operate this

product with any tanks smaller than 100 pounds.

Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures. You may

need two or more 100 pound (45 kg) tanks or one larger

tank in colder weather. Your local propane gas dealer will

help you select the proper supply system. The minimum

surrounding air temperature rating for each heater is

-20° F (-29° C).
