INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Page 1
It is recommended that this heater be installed by
a professional gas heating equipment service per-
son. Installation of the Schwank SEB Series
gas-fired tube heaters must conform to all
Schwank heating installation design procedures
including ventilation. All local, provincial and na-
tional code requirements including the current lat-
est edition B149.1 INSTALLATION CODE” in
Canada, and ANSI Z223.1 in the U.S.A. for gas
burning appliances and equipment. The latest edi-
tion Electrical Code PART 1 CSA C22.1 in Can-
ada and ANSI/NFPA N0 70 in the U.S.A. must also be observed. Due to ever changing stan-
dardsand requirements, revision to our equip-
ment and installation procedures may be neces-
sary. In case of discrepancies, the latest installa-
tion manual will take priority. The Schwank
SEB heater may be installed for heating of non-
residential indoor spaces. It is beyond the scope
of these instructions to embrace all conditions
that will be encountered. All system piping must
be supported in accordance with acceptable
practice, local codes, and applicable standards.
