SAFETY DEVICE
This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple-
tion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The
ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free
room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the
heater if there is not enough fresh air.
IGNITION SYSTEM
Some models are equipped with a piezo
ignitor that requires no matches, batteries or
other sources to light heater.
Other heaters are equipped with an electronic
ignitor to light heater fuel supply.
THERMOSTATIC HEAT CONTROL
(Thermostat Models Only)
Thermostat models have a thermostat sens-
ing bulb and a control valve. This results in the
greatest heater comfort. This can also result
