• 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.

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.

Roberts-Gordon 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.

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 ele-
ments (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds 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 components will be greatly reduced. An out-
side 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

for installations in public garages, aircraft hangars,
etc. may be applicable.
