Typical Locations
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the
flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If
you have these signs, obtain fresh air immedi-
ately. Turn off the gas supply to the appliance
and have it serviced by a qualified profes-
sional, as it may not be operating correctly.
WARNING: B-VENT APPLIANCES ARE NOT
DESIGNED TO OPERATE IN NEGATIVELY
PRESSURED ENVIRONMENTS (PRESSURE
WITHIN THE HOME IS LESS THAN PRES-
SURES OUTSIDE). SIGNIFICANT NEGA-
TIVELY PRESSURED ENVIRONMENTS
CAUSED BY WEATHER, HOME DESIGN,
OR OTHER DEVICES MAY IMPACT THE
OPERATION OF THESE APPLIANCES.
NEGATIVE PRESSURES MAY RESULT IN
POOR FLAME APPEARANCE, SOOTING,
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AND/OR SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY. DO NOT OPERATE
THESE APPLIANCES IN NEGATIVELY PRES-
SURED ENVIRONMENTS.
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and func-
tional use of the appliance are primary concerns.
However, vent system routing to the exterior and
access to the fuel supply are also important. Due
to high temperatures the appliance should be
located out of traffic and away from furniture and
draperies. Consideration should be given to traf-
fic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due to el-
evated surface temperatures. The location should
also be free of electrical, plumbing or other
heating/air conditioning ducting.
The appliance should be mounted on a fully
supported base extending the full width and
depth of the unit. The appliance may be located
on or near conventional construction materials.
However, if installed on combustible materials,
such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a metal or wood
barrier covering the entire bottom surface must
be used.
These appliances may be used for bedroom
installations in the United States and are listed
accordingly. These units may not be installed
in bedrooms in Canada.

the main burner.
Minimum inlet gas pressure to the appliance is
4.5 inches water column (1.12 kPa) for natural
gas and 11 inches water column (2.74 kPa) for
propane for the purpose of input adjustment.
Maximum inlet gas supply pressure to the
appliance is 10.5 inches water column (2.61
