1.
Each Unit Heater comes equipped with a power vent 
system that consists of a power venter motor and 
blower, pressure switch, and sealed flue collector in 
place of the conventional draft diverter.
2. The power venter motor is energized by the room 
thermostat through the integrated control board when 
a demand for heat is sensed. The pressure switch 
measures the flow through the vent system and 
energizes the direct spark ignition system beginning 
the pre-purge timing when the flow is correct.
3. The direct spark ignition system consists of an ignition 
control module and a gas valve. When the pre-purge 
period ends, the spark ignition system is energized, 
and the gas valve opens to supply gas to the burner. 
Once the thermostat has been satisfied, the vent 
system is de-energized, stopping all gas flow to the 
unit.
4. The limit switch interrupts the flow of electric current to 
the control board, interrupting the flow of gas to the 
gas valve if the unit heater becomes overheated.
5. Once the thermostat is satisfied, or the limit switch 
interrupts the flow of electric current to the control 
board, the unit will begin a post-purge period. When 
the post-purge period ends, the power venter motor is 
de-energized.
6. The operation of the fan is delayed for approximately 
30 seconds once the thermostat is closed, and 
continues operation for approximately 30 seconds 
after the thermostat opens.
Note: The start-up fan delay must not exceed 30 
seconds from a cold start.
7.
The wall thermostat, supplied optionally, is a 
temperature sensitive switch that operates the vent 
and ignition systems to control the temperature of the 
space being heated.
Note: The thermostat must be mounted on a vertical, 
vibration-free surface, free from air currents, 
and in accordance with the furnished 
instructions.
Start-Up (also refer to lighting instruction 
plate equipped on the unit)
1.
Open the manual gas valve, in the gas supply line to the 
unit heater with union connection loose, purge air 
from the gas line. Tighten the union and check for 
leaks.
2. Open the manual valve on the unit heater.
WARNING
Carbon Monoxide!
Never operate unit heaters if the power venter is not 
operable. Your venting system must not be blocked by 
any snow, snow drifts, or any foreign matter. Inspect 
your venting system to ensure adequate ventilation 
exists at all times! Failure to follow these 
recommendations could result in death or serious 
injury due to Carbon Monoxide Poisoning (symptoms 
include grogginess, lethargy, inappropriate tiredness, or 
flu-like symptoms).
WARNING
Flame Roll-Out Hazard!
Flame roll-out can cause fire! The flame roll-out switch 
trips in events in which flame extends beyond the 
combustion chamber. When the flame roll-out switch 
trips, it interrupts the flow of electric current to the 
control board, interrupting the flow of gas to the unit 
heater in the event of sustained flame roll-out from the 
burner area. If the flame roll-out switch trips, you must 
determine and correct the cause of the flame roll-out 
before starting the unit back up. Failure to do so could 
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Hazard of Explosion!
Never use an open flame to detect gas leaks. Explosive 
conditions may occur. Use a leak test solution or other 
approved methods for leak testing. Before attempting 
to light or relight the pilot, wait 5 minutes to allow gas 
which may have accumulated in the burner 
compartment to escape. Failure to follow 
recommended safe leak test procedures or pilot 
lighting/relighting instructions could result in death or 
serious injury or equipment or property-only-damage.
