INSTALLATION
WARNING: A qualified ser-

Follow all local codes.
CAUTION: This heater creates
warm air currents. These currents
move heat to wall surfaces next to

vinyl or cloth wall coverings or
operating heater where impurities
(such as tobacco smoke, aromatic
candles, cleaning fluids, oil or
kerosene lamps, etc.) in the air
exist, may discolor walls.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use only propane/LP gas. If your gas supply
is not propane/LP gas, do not install heater.
Call dealer where you bought heater for
proper type heater.
IMPORTANT:
Vent-free heaters add mois-
ture to the air. Although this is beneficial,
installing heater in rooms without enough
ventilation air may cause mildew to form
from too much moisture. See Air for Com-
bustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.

vide greater clearances from

directly on carpeting, vinyl tile, or any com-
bustible material other than wood. The stove

using heater. This will help circu-
late the heat throughout the
house. In the event of a power
outage, you can use this heater
as your primary heat source.
