proper application of pipe compound before
further tightening.
-- Tighten the gas connection as necessary to
stop the leak.
-- If necessary, replace the parts or components
involved if the leak cannot be stopped.
-- Ensure all gas leaks have been identified and
repaired before proceeding.
12. A qualified service agency must check for proper
operating gas pressure upon installation of the heater.
13. Light according to instructions on heater or within
owner's manual.
14. It is extremely important to use the proper size and
type of gas supply line to assure proper functioning of
the heater. Contact your fuel gas supplier for proper
line sizing and installation.
15. Make sure 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.
16. This heater can be configured for use with either
propane gas vapor withdrawal or natural gas. Consult
the dataplate, located on the case panel at the burner
end of the heater, for the gas configuration of the
specific heater. Do not use the heater in a propane
gas liquid withdrawal system or application. If you are
in doubt, contact the L.B. White Co., Inc.
17. 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.
18. 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.
19. 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 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.
