The heater is designed and approved for use as
a construction heater under ANSI Z83.7•CGA
2.14-2000 Construction Heater. The purpose
of construction heaters is to provide temporary
heating of buildings under construction, alteration

economical heating. Products of combustion are
vented into the area being heated.
We cannot foresee every use which may be made of
our heaters. Check with your local fire safety au-
thority if you have questions about heater use.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and
heat producing products for specific uses. Your
local authorities can advise you about these.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Some people are
more affected by carbon monoxide than others.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning re-
semble the flu, with headaches, dizziness and/or
nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may
not be working properly. Get fresh air at once!
Have heater serviced.
Propane/LP Gas: Propane/LP gas is odorless. An
odor-making agent is added to propane/LP gas.
The odor helps you detect a propane/LP gas leak.

fade. Propane/LP gas may be present even though
no odor exists.
