AIR DIVERTER

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

12. Ensure the heater has the proper gas regulator for the

application. A regulator must be connected to the gas

supply so that gas pressure at the inlet to the gas

valve is regulated within the range specified on the

dataplate at all times. Contact your gas supplier, or

the L.B. White Co., Inc. if you have any questions.

13. This heater can be configured for use with either L.P.

gas vapor withdrawal or natural gas. Consult the

dataplate, located on interior of the burner end or

motor end door, for the gas configuration of the

specific heater. Do not use the heater in an L.P. gas

liquid withdrawal system or application. If you are in

doubt, contact the L.B. White Co., Inc.

14. Eventually, like all electrical/mechanical devices, the

thermostat can fail. Thermostat failure may result in

either an underheating or overheating condition which

may damage critical products and/or cause animal

injury or death. Critical products and/or animals

should be protected by a separate back-up control

system that limits high and low temperatures and also

activates appropriate alarms.

15. Take time to understand how to operate and maintain

the heater by using this Owner’s Manual. Make sure

you know how to shut off the gas supply to the building

and also to the individual heater. Contact your fuel

gas supplier if you have any questions.

16. Any defects found in performing any of the service or

maintenance procedures must be eliminated and

defective parts replaced immediately. The heater

must be retested by properly qualified service

personnel before placing the heater back into use.

1. Optional air diverters can be installed in the heater

outlet to provide direction to the heated air as it exits

the heater. Installation options include installing the

diverters in such a way as to broadly distribute the air

in two 45 degree paths or to focus the air flow in one

45 degree direction. See Fig. 1.

2. The air diverters may require hand forming prior to

installation. Make 90 degree bends utilizing the

perforations provided. Diverters should have the

shape as shown in Fig. 1.

3. The air diverter’s tabs on each half will “pop” into the

blower outlet between the inside of the case assembly

and the blower housing outlet. If the notched tabs do

not “pop” into the blower outlet, loosen (do not

remove) the blower outlet screws. Doing this provides

a gap into which you can insert the tabs. Retighten

the screws after installation.
