Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion. An unvented room

heater produces approximately one (1) ounce (30ml) of water for

every 1,000 BTU's (.3KW's) of gas input per hour. .
Unvented room heaters are recommended as supplemental heat (a

room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire house). In most

supplemental heat applications, the water vapor does not create a

problem. In most applications, the water vapor enhances the low

humidity atmosphere experienced during cold weather.

The following steps will help insure that water vapor does not

become a problem.

1. Be sure the heater is sized properly for the application, including

ample combustion air and circulation air.

2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be used to

help lower the water vapor content of the air.

3. Do not use an unvented room heater as the primary heat

source.
