Code NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Com-
bustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation
grills or ducts.
*IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for inlet or
outlet into attic. If attic has a thermostat-controlled
power vent, heated air entering the attic will activate
the power vent.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture 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 Fresh
Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 3 through
5.
INSTALLATION

mental heat. Use this heater along with your primary

system, you may run system’s circulating blower while
using heater. This will help circulate the heat throughout
the house. In the event of a power outage, you can use
this heater as your primary heat source for the duration
of the outage.
