Operation
Explanation of Controls (see 
)
1.
Each Separated Combustion Unit Heater comes 
equipped with a power vent system that consists of a 
power venter motor and blower, pressure switch, and 
sealed flue collector.
2. The power venter motor is energized by the room 
thermostat when a demand for heat is sensed. The 
pressure switch measures the pressure differential 
between the air inlet and exhaust vent systems. If the 
differential is correct, the indirect spark ignition system 
is energized.
3. The indirect spark ignition system consists of an 
ignition module, a dual combination valve, and a 
spark-ignited pilot burner. When the pressure switch is 
closed, the pilot valve opens as a spark is generated to 
light the pilot. When the flame is sensed by the flame 
sensing circuit, the spark ceases, and the main gas 
valve is opened to supply gas to the main burners. 
Once the thermostat has been satisfied, the vent 
system and gas valve are simultaneously de-
energized, stopping all gas flow to the unit.
4. The limit switch interrupts the flow of electric current to 
the main gas valve if the unit heater becomes 
overheated.
5. The fan switch delays the operation of the fan is 
delayed for approximately 45 seconds once the 
thermostat is closed, and continues fan operation for 
approximately 65 seconds after the thermostat opens.
Note: The start-up fan delay must not exceed 90 
seconds from a cold start.
6. 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.
Initial Lighting
1.
Open the manual gas valve, in the gas supply line to the 
unit heater. Loosen the union in the gas supply line to 
purge it of air. Tighten the union and check for leaks.
2. Turn on the electrical power. The unit heater should 
now be under the control of the thermostat. Set the 
thermostat to its highest setting; the power venter 
motor should start and burner ignition occur. Allow the 
unit heater to operate until the fan starts, then set the 
thermostat to its lowest setting. The burners and 
power venter motor should stop operating 
immediately while the fan continues to operate until 
the fan time delay times out, shutting it off. Reset the 
thermostat to the desired operational setting.
Power Vented Propeller Units with 
Intermittent (Spark) Pilot Ignition
Explanation of Controls
1.
The unit heater is equipped with a power venter 
system consisting of a power venter motor and blower, 
pressure switch, and sealed flue collector in place of 
the conventional draft diverter.
a. The power venter motor is energized by the room 
thermostat on a call for heat. The pressure switch 
measures the flow through the vent system and 
energizes the indirect spark ignition system when 
the flow is correct.
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).
NOTICE: 
Additional Devices!
The addition of external draft hoods or power venters is 
not permitted. Addition of such devices could cause 
severe unit malfunction or failure!
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.
WARNING
Risk of Fire and Carbon Monoxide 
Poisoning!
The pressure switch MUST NOT be bypassed. The unit 
MUST NOT be fired unless the power venter is 
operating. Failure to follow these recommendations 
could result in death or serious injury.
