SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
The installer is responsible for the following:
• To install the heater, as well as the gas and 
electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable 
specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon LLC 
recommends the installer contact a Local 
Building Inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.
• To use the information given in a layout drawing 
and in the manual together with the cited codes 
and regulations to perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the 
clearances to combustibles.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished as 
standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports, vents and air 
intakes.
• To provide access for servicing.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this 
Installation, Operation and Service Manual.
• To never use heater as support for a ladder or 
other access equipment and never hang or 
suspend anything from heater.
• To ensure there is adequate air circulation 
around the heater and to supply air for 
combustion, ventilation and distribution in 
accordance with local codes.
• To provide a method that ensures that the air flow 
through the heat exchanger is within the 
acceptable range indicated on the rating plate 
prior to energizing the heater, and that such air 
flow continues at least 90 seconds after the 
heater is de-energized.
• To ensure the heater is placed in an approved 
application.
2.1 Wall Tag
A laminated wall tag is included with the heater as a 
permanent reminder of the safety instructions and 
the importance of the required clearances to 
combustibles. Affix the tag by peeling off the backing 
of the adhesive strips on the rear surface and 
position the tag on a wall near the heater.
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91039831) is illustrated 
on the back cover.
Know your model number. Model number is found 
on the heater and throughout the Installation, 
Operation and Service Manual. 
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals
Roberts-Gordon LLC cannot be responsible for 
ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are 
undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the 
responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the 
contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner 
identifies the presence of combustible materials, 
corrosive chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* 
anywhere in the premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical 
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen 
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com-
pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning 
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air 
supply of the burner, the life span of the heater compo-
nents will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must 
be provided to the burners whenever the presence of 
these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid 
if the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.
2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All appliances must be installed in accordance with 
the latest revision of the applicable standards and 
national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas 
and venting installation. Note: Additional standards 
for installations in public garages, aircraft hangars, 
etc. may be applicable.
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not use heater in area containing 
corrosive chemicals.
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data 
Sheets (MSDS).
Failure to follow these instructions can result 
in product damage.
