G. In locations used for the storage of combustible materials, signs shall be posted to specify
the maximum permissible stacking height to maintain required clearances from the heater
to the combustible materials. SEE PAGE 8
H. Connect heater to the main gas line. To absorb gas line expansion, heater expansion, and/
or any vibration from the building it is recommended to use a 1/2" stainless steel flexible
connector correctly sized to handle the gas capacity of the heater (available as option from
Schwank or your local supplier) . The flexible gas connector must be formed into a smooth
‘C’ shape from the gas supply to the heater inlet.
I. Mount thermostat at desired location, away from direct infra-red rays of heater. If the ther-
mostat is located on a cold wall, place sufficient insulation behind the thermostat.
J. Test gas line for leaks by using gas pressure test and/or soap test and as per all local and
national codes. Ensure gas pressure meets the requirements outlined in Section 9.
K. When testing the main gas line pressure, ensure the gas shut-off valve is “OFF”, oth-
erwise damage to the combination gas valve can result.
L. Test fire the heating system by following the lighting instructions on page 19 and on heater.
1. Suspension Hardware: Ensure hardware is sufficient
to support the weight of the heater - see Figure 7 &
Table 4 for heater dimensions
#10 Jack Chain or heavier gauge
#2 Lion Chain or heavier gauge
‘S’ Hooks
3/8” rod with bolt and nuts
Other suitable brackets / hardware
2. Insert open Jack Chain link or ‘S” hook from the out-
side edge through the top hole at each end and each
side of the heater body.
Alternate: secure chain to heater with a nut and bolt
through the four top holes
3. Use pliers to secure in place by crimping the chain link
or ‘S” hook into closed position.
4. Adjust suspension hard-
ware lengths for horizontal
or angle mount (up to 30°)
