other gases unless a certified kit is used.
Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization
equipment or accessories, and repair and servicing of
equipment shall be performed only by a qualified agency.
The term “qualified agency” means any individual, firm,
corporation, or company that either in person or through a
representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a)

service agency. It is imperative that control compartments,
burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be
kept clean.
The Radiance Natural Vent Room Heater and its individual shut-
off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping dur-
ing any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in ex-
cess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The Radiance Natural Vent Room Heater must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply pip-
ing system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
An accessible tap is located above the pilot/On-Off knob for
checking the inlet pressure.
This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation and must be
installed so there are provisions for adequate combustion and
ventilation air.
This appliance must be properly connected to a listed 4”
(100mm) Type B venting system or to an approved masonry or
factory-built chimney system. In Canada, a complete reline of
Class A chimneys is required. This heater is equipped with a vent
safety shutoff system.
This appliance is approved for bedroom installations in the U.S.
and Canada.
This appliance may be installed in an aftermarket* manufac-
tured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by state or local codes.
WARNING: Operation of this heater when not connected
to a properly installed and maintained venting system can
result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible
death.
The Radiance Natural Vent Room Heater, when installed, must
be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, (latest edition), or of the current Canadian Elec-
trical Code C22.1.
Due to high temperatures this appliance should be located
out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
WARNING: This appliance is hot while in operation. Keep
children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause
burns or ignition of combustible materials.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of
high surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid
burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully
supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.
Clothing or other flammable materials should not be placed
on or near the appliance.
Any safety screen, glass or guard removed for servicing an
appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
The appliance area must be kept clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed. The installation must include adequate
accessibility and clearance for servicing and proper
operation.
WARNING: Do not operate the Room Heater with the glass
panel removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the
panel should be done by a licensed or qualified service
person.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
Do not burn wood, trash or any other material for which this
appliance was not designed. This appliance is designed to
burn either natural gas or propane only.
This gas appliance must not be connected to a chimney
flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
