CARBON MONOXIDE - POISONOUS GAS
DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO
DEATH!
Space heaters exhaust contains carbon monoxide - a poisonous gas
that can kill you. You CAN NOT smell or see this gas.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning
resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness, and/or nausea. If you have
these signs, the space heater may not be working properly. Get fresh air at
once! Have space heater serviced. Some people are more affected by carbon
monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, persons with heart
or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, and those
at high altitudes.
Never use a space heater in enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces without
proper ventilation. Use only in well-vented areas. Before using space heater,
provide at least a three-square-foot (2800 square cm) opening of fresh,
outside air for each 100,000 Btu / Hr (30 kw) of rating. Space heaters can
produce high levels of carbon monoxide very quickly. When you use a space
heater, remember that you cannot smell or see carbon monoxide. Even if you
can’t smell exhaust fumes, you may still be exposed to carbon monoxide.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using a space heater, get to fresh
air RIGHTAWAY. DO NOT DELAY. The carbon monoxide from space heaters
can rapidly lead to full incapacitation and death.
If you experience serious symptoms, get medical attention immediately.
Inform medical staff that carbon monoxide poisoning is suspected. If you
experienced symptoms while indoors, have someone call the fire department
to determine when it is safe to re-enter the building.
NEVER operate the space heater in an explosive atmosphere, near
combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufficient to carry away
exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury or death.
NEVER run space heaters inside homes, garages, sheds, or other semi-
enclosed spaces without proper ventilation. These spaces can trap poisonous
gases EVEN IF you run a fan or open doors and windows. Use only in well-
vented areas. Before using space heater, provide at least a three-square-foot
(2800 square cm) opening of fresh, outside air for each 100,000 Btu / Hr (30
kw) of rating.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the space heater, shut
if off and get fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon
monoxide poisoning.
Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide
alarms with battery back-up in your home, according to the manufacturer’s
installation instructions. The carbon monoxide alarms should be certified to
the requirements of the latest safety standards for carbon monoxide alarms.
(UL 2034, IAS 6-96, or CSA 6.19.01).
Test your carbon monoxide alarm frequently and replace dead batteries.

Operator’s Manual
Preparation
THEORY OF OPERATION
The Fuel System: The hose / regulator assembly attaches to the propane gas supply. The propane gas moves
through the solenoid valve and out the nozzle.
The Air System: The motor turns the fan. The fan pushes air into and around the combustion chamber. This air
is heated and provides a stream of clean, hot air.
The Ignition System: The direct spark ignitor (DSI) sends voltage to the ignitor. The ignitor ignites the fuel and
air mixture.
The Safety Control System: This system causes the heater to shut down if the flame goes out. The motor will
continue to run, but no heat is produced.
