Installation and repair of the Clarity Direct Vent Gas
Heater should be done by a qualified service person. The
appliance should be inspected before use and at least an-
nually by a qualified service person. More frequent clean-
ing may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, etc. It is imperative that control com-
partments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the
Clarity be kept clean.
When operating your Harman Clarity Gas Heater, re-
spect basic safety standards. Read these instructions care-
fully before you attempt to operate the heater. Failure to
do so may result in damage to property or personal injury
and may void the product warranty.
Consult with your local building code agency and insur-
ance representative before you begin your installation to
ensure compliance with local codes, including the need for
permits and follow-up inspections.
Several issues must be addressed when selecting a suit-
able location for your Clarity Gas Heater. Observing re-
quired clearances to combustible materials, the proximity
to a safe chimney or venting system location, and the ac-
cessibility of the gas and electrical supply must all be con-
sidered. In addition, selecting a location that takes advan-
tage of the building's natural air flow is also desirable to
maximize the heating effectiveness of the heater. In many
cases, this is a central location within the building.
WARNING: If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion
may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
