IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
37409-7-0620Page 4
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell the
odor of the chemical put into the gas. You must nd out if you
can smell the odorant in propane. Smoking can decrease your
ability to smell. Being around an odor for a time can affect your
sensitivity or ability to detect that odor. Sometimes other odors in
the area mask the gas odor. People may not smell the gas odor
or their minds are on something else. Thinking about smelling a
gas odor can make it easier to smell.
The odorant in Propane Gas is colorless, and it can fade under
some circumstances. For example, if there is an underground
leak, the movement of the gas through soil can lter the odorant.
Odorants in Propane Gas also are subject to oxidation. This fading
can occur if there is rust inside the storage tank or in iron gas pipes.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or into walls,
masonry and other materials and fabrics in a room. That will take
some of the odorant out of the gas, reducing its odor intensity.
Propane Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor intensity
could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air, there may
be more odor at lower levels. Always be sensitive to the slightest
gas odor. If you detect any odor, treat it as a serious leak. Imme-
diately go into action as instructed earlier.
Propane is a ammable gas which can cause res and explo-
sions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and colorless.
You may not know all the following safety precautions which
can protect both you and your family from an accident. Read
them carefully now, then review them point by point with the
members of your household. Someday when there may not
be a minute to lose, everyone's safety will depend on knowing
exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information,
you feel you still need more information, please contact your
gas supplier.
Learn to recognize the odor of Propane Gas. Your local
Propane Gas Dealer can give you a "Scratch and Sniff" pam-
phlet. Use it to nd out what the propane odor smells like. If
you suspect that your Propane Gas has a weak or abnormal
odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer.
If you are not qualied, do not light pilot lights, perform ser-
vice, or make adjustments to appliances on the Propane
Gas system. If you are qualied, consciously think about the
odor of Propane Gas prior to and while lighting pilot lights or
performing service or making adjustments.
Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house has a musty
smell that can cover up the Propane Gas odor. Do not try to
light pilot lights, perform service, or make adjustments in an
area where the conditions are such that you may not detect
the odor if there has been a leak of Propane Gas.
Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust or adsorption on walls of
new cylinders and tanks, is possible. Therefore, people should
be particularly alert and careful when new tanks or cylinders
are placed in service. Odor fade can occur in new tanks, or
reinstalled old tanks, if they are lled and allowed to set too
long before relling. Cylinders and tanks which have been
out of service for a time may develop internal rust which will
cause odor fade. If such conditions are suspected to exist,
a periodic sniff test of the gas is advisable. If you have any
question about the gas odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer.
A periodic sniff test of the Propane Gas is a good safety
measure under any condition.
If, at any time, you do not smell the Propane Gas odorant and
you think you should, assume you have a leak. Then take the
same immediate action recommended above for the occasion
when you do detect the odorized Propane Gas.
If you experience a complete "gas out," (the container is un-
der no vapor pressure), turn the tank valve off immediately.
If the container valve is left on, the container may draw in
some air through openings such as pilot light orices. If this
occurs, some new internal rusting could occur. If the valve is
left open, then treat the container as a new tank. Always be
sure your container is under vapor pressure by turning it off
at the container before it goes completely empty or having it
relled before it is completely empty.
Do not operate electric switches, light matches, use your
phone. Do not do anything that could ignite the gas.
Get everyone out of the building, vehicle, trailer, or area. Do
that IMMEDIATELY.
Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.
Propane Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas
such as basements. When you have reason to suspect a gas
leak, keep out of basements and other low areas. Stay out
until reghters declare them to be safe.
Use your neighbor's phone and call a trained Propane Gas
service person and the re department. Even though you may
not continue to smell gas, do not turn on the gas again. Do
not re-enter the building, vehicle, trailer, or area.
Finally, let the service man and reghters check for escaped
gas. Have them air out the area before you return. Properly
trained Propane Gas service people should repair the leak,
then check and relight the gas appliance for you.
SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER
NO ODOR DETECTED - ODOR FADE
PROPANE GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because of the odorant put in the Propane Gas.
That's your signal to go into immediate action!

When an existing Category 1 heater is removed or replaced,
the original venting system may no longer be sized to
properly vent the attached appliances. Instructions shall
also indicate effects of an improperly sized venting system
(formation of condensate, leakage, spillage, etc.) and shall
specify the following test procedure:
WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each
appliance connected to the venting system being
placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide
poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each
appliance connected to the venting system being
placed into operation, while all other appliances
connected to the venting system are not in operation:
1. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch, as required in the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1
and these instructions. Determine that there is no
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and
other deciencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
3. As far as practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which
the appliance(s) connected to the venting system
are located and other spaces of the building.
4. Close replace dampers.
5. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not
connected to the venting system. Turn on any
exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom
exhausts, so they are operating at maximum
speed. Do operate a summer exhaust fan.
6. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance
being inspected into operation. Adjust the
thermostat so appliance is operating continuously.
7. Test for spillage from draft hood equipped
appliances at the draft hood relief opening after 5
minutes of main burner operation. Use the ame
of a match or candle.
8. If improper venting is observed during any of the
above tests, the venting system must be corrected
in accordance with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
9. After is has been determined that each appliance
connected
to the venting system properly vents
when tested as outlined above, return doors,
windows, exhaust fans, replace dampers and
any other gas-red burning appliance to their
previous conditions of use.
37409-7-0620 Page 7
NOTICE: No vent equipment supplied with furnace.
4" Oval (all parts purchase locally)
1. Type B-1 oval pipe
2. Single story type B-1 gas vents require a baseplate and one
pair of ceiling plate spacers.
3. Multi-story type B-1 gas vents require a baseplate, one pair
of ceiling plate spacers at the rst oor ceiling and one pair of
re stop spacers at each successive ceiling level.
Type B-W gas vent pipe is available for single story or multi-story
installations. Type B-W gas vent pipe is to be used with the Listed
base plate, ceiling plate spacers and re stop spacers.
Insulated Vent Enclosure
Gravity vented wall furnaces installed in buildings with at roofs can
have poor venting. The cold vent pipe will have a delay in proper
venting and cause the wall furnace to shut "off" by the vent safety
switch. To prevent delayed venting as well as condensation of ue
products an insulated vent enclosure is recommended.
Use Type B vent pipe and maintain at least a one inch (25mm)
clearance to combustibles.
Use metal thimble to protect vent pipe as it passes through
combustibles.
Baseplate Gasket is factory installed on header. Baseplate attaches
to header with screws. B-vent snaps into and is attached to baseplate.
Minimum height of vent pipe must be six feet (1.8m) above header.
Stud space around gas vents must be free of obstructions and
building paper.
Uninsulated Single-Wall Metal Pipe shall not be used outdoors in
cold climates for venting gas utilization equipment.
Attention: The main burner uses room air for combustion. As the
gas/air mixture is injected into the main burner, there is also the
ow of dust and lint particles into the main burner.
Dust and lint accumulation inside the main burner will result in a
yellow main burner ame and possible sooting inside the combus-
tion chamber and vent pipe. To clean main burner refer to Page
14, "Proper Main Burner Flame."

NOTICE: Never use plastic pipe. Check to conrm whether your
local codes allow copper tubing or galvanized.
NOTICE: Since some municipalities have additional local codes, it
is always best to consult your local authority and installation code.
Installing a New Main Gas Shut-Off
Each appliance should have its own manual gas shut-off.
A manual main gas shut-off should be located in the vicinity of the
unit. Where none exists, or where its size or location is not adequate,
contact your local authorized installer for installation or relocation.
Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping shall be resistant
to the action of liqueed petroleum gases. The gas lines must be
checked for leaks by the installer. This should be done with a soap
solution watching for bubbles on all exposed connections, and if
unexposed, a pressure test should be made.
Never use an exposed ame to check for leaks. Appliance must
be disconnected from piping at inlet of control valve and pipe
capped or plugged for pressure test. Never pressure test with
appliance connected; control valve will sustain damage!
A gas valve and ground joint union should be installed in the gas
line upstream of the gas control to aid in servicing. It is required by
the National Fuel Gas Code that a drip line be installed near the gas
inlet. This should consist of a vertical length of pipe tee connected
into the gas line that is capped on the bottom in which condensation
and foreign particles may collect.
Figure 1
The use of the following gas connectors is recommended:
ANS Z21.24 Appliance Connectors of Corrugated Metal Tubing
and Fittings
ANS Z21.45 Assembled Flexible Appliance Connectors of Other
Than All-Metal Construction
The above connectors may be used if acceptable by the authority
having jurisdiction. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires
that a exible appliance connector cannot exceed three feet in length.
Pressure Testing of the Gas Supply System
1. To check the inlet pressure to the gas valve, a 1/8" (3.175mm)
N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection,
must be placed immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the appliance.
2. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
3. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Attention! If one of the procedures results in pressures in excess
of 1/2 psig (14" w.c.) (3.5 kPa) on the appliance gas valve, it will
result in a hazardous condition.
Checking Manifold Pressure
Both Propane and Natural Gas valves have a built-in pressure
regulator in the gas valve. Natural Gas models will have a manifold
pressure of approximately 3.5" w.c. (.871kPa) at the valve outlet
with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 4.5" w.c.
(1.120kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of
10.5" w.c. (2.614kPa) Propane Gas models will have a manifold
pressure approximately 10.0" w.c. (2.49kPa) at the valve outlet
with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 11.0" w.c.
(2.739kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of
13.0" w.c. (3.237kPa).
A 1/8" (3.175mm) N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge
connection, is located on the outlet side of the gas control.
GAS SUPPLY
37409-7-0620 Page 9
1. In selecting a location for installation, it is necessary to provide
adequate accessibility clearances for servicing and proper
installation.
2. Clearances to combustible surfaces are 4" (102mm) from sides,
12" (305mm) to top, 1 1/2" (38mm) from oor.
NOTE: Minimum distance of 1 1/2" (38mm) must also be maintained
from top surface of carpeting, tile, etc.
Wall furnaces shall be installed in a location in which the facilities
for ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of gas and proper
venting under normal conditions. In buildings of conventional frame,
brick, or stone construction without tight storm windows and doors,
inltration is normally adequate to provide air for combustion and
draft hood dilution.
Where appliances are installed in conned and unconned spaces
within a building, the building being of unusually tight construction,
air for combustion and ventilation must be obtained directly from
outdoors or from such spaces that freely communicate with the
outdoors. Under these conditions, the conned and unconned
spaces shall be provided with two permanent openings, one near
the top of the enclosure and one near the bottom; each opening
shall have a free area of not less than one square inch (6.45cm
2
)
per 2,000 BTU (.6KW/H) per hour of total input.
Select a location near the center of the space to be heated. Overow
heat will circulate through doorways into adjacent rooms.
For large homes or spread-out oor plans, two or more furnaces are
recommended. Do not locate furnace where a door could swing
over the outer casing, or where circulation could be retarded by
furniture or cabinets.
Do not install in a closet, alcove or small hallway where the furnace
could be isolated by closing doors to the heated space.
When location is selected, check the walls, attic and roof to make sure
there are no obstructions such as pipes, electric wiring, etc., which
would interfere with the installation of the furnace or vent pipe.
NOTE: If Rear Register Kit is to be used, see Rear Register Kit
instructions for location of hole in rear wall. Register outlet
must be cut in wall before furnace is installed.
NOTE: If Optional Blower is to be used, hard wiring must be
completed for the optional blower prior to installation of
header plate.
Provide an opening in the wall 14 1/2" (368mm) wide and 66 1/8"
(168cm) high measured from top of oor plate (See Figure 2 and
Figure 3). Wall depth is to be 2" x 4" framing with 1/4" (6.5mm) to
5/8" (16mm) sheeting. Attach baseplate (not supplied with furnace) to
header plate with sheet metal screws at each end. Attach 4" (102mm)
oval, double wall vent pipe to baseplate. Attach enough vent pipe so
that when installed in wall opening the vent pipe will extend above the
ceiling plate by at least 6" (152mm). Install ceiling spacers according
to manufacturer's instructions. Insert header plate with attached 4"
oval, double wall vent pipe into wall opening. Position header plate
at height shown in Figure 2. Locate rear edge of nailing ange at
the back of the 2" x 4" stud which will center the vent collar in the
wall. Locate the angled edge of header plate ush with the top of
the wall opening. Nail header plate to the wall studs.

generating systems. They should never be used on line or low
voltage A.C. circuits.
Installing the ON/OFF Device
To install an ON/OFF device (such as a wall switch, remote, toggle
switch,or thermostat), remove the wire nut from the two wires from
the valve. Run additional wire from the valve wires to the ON/OFF
device. Install the ON/OFF device in the same room as the furnace
following the installation instructions supplied with it. In the absence
of instructions, install the ON/OFF device 4 to 5 feet above the oor
on an interior wall not affected by another heating source (i.e. stove
or water heater) or the temperature of an adjoining room..
Proper operation depends on a good pilot ame. The ame must
cover the top of the thermopile. Cleaning of the pilot orice and
burner may be required due to spiders.
System Check (Figure7)
A millivolt meter is required to check the system. The millivolt
readings should be:
Across the thermopile terminals, 400-450 millivolts with the
heater OFF.
Across the thermopile terminals, 150-250 millivolts with the
heater ON.
Across the wires at the valve, less than 30 millivolts with the
heater ON.
To conserve Gas: Turn off pilot when heater is not in use.

This appliance must be properly connected to a venting system.
This appliance is equipped with a vent safety shutoff system.
Warning: Operation of this wall furnace when not connected
to a properly installed and maintained venting system or
tampering with the vent safety shutoff system can result in
carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
This furnace is equipped with a manual reset vent safety switch.
The manual reset vent safety switch will cause gas ow to the main
burner to "shut off" due to improper venting or a blocked ue.
To reset the manual reset vent safety switch:
1. Remove outer casing.
2. Depress manual reset button. The manual reset vent safety
switch is located on the draft diverter.
3. Replace outer casing.
If the manual reset vent safety switch continues to "shut off" the gas
ow to the main burner a qualied service person must be contacted
to inspect for improper venting, blockage in the vent pipe or the
manual reset vent safety switch for being defective.
The correct ame will be a short blue inner ame with a much larger
light blue outer ame. The burner does not have a primary air
adjustment. The ame will be proper if the factory-set pressure and
orice are used. After the furnace has begun operating, cleaning
of the burner may be needed for proper ame, examine at least 2
times per season.
To clean burner ports, disconnect the gas supply to the valve. Remove
the burner assembly from the combustion chamber. Remove pilot
burner from main burner and then remove the main burner. Force
water into the ports and blow dry with vacuum cleaner air, or low
pressure compressed air.
The correct ame will be blue, extending past the thermopile. The
ame will surround the thermopile just below its tip.
Natural Gas pilots require adjusting when the inlet gas pressure
is above 5" w.c. (1.245kPa). Remove the pilot cover screw on the
control valve and turn the adjustment screw clockwise to reduce
ame. Replace pilot cover screw to eliminate gas leaking at that
control valve opening.
Propane Gas will not require adjustment.
After use, cleaning may be required for the proper ame.
Examine the pilot ame before and during each heating season.

GENERAL All furnaces have been re-tested to check for proper
operation. This includes main burner ame, pilot ame, and gas
control operation. If the furnace fails to function on initial installation,
it is advisable to re-check the following:
1. Inlet gas pressure.
2. Type of gas being used and that shown on the rating plate.
Contact your Empire Dealer to assist in servicing furnace.
Servicing the Pilot and Main Burner, Pilot Orice, Thermopile
and Main Burner Orice
Disconnect the gas supply at the inlet to the control valve. Remove the
burner assembly to which the above components are attached.
Pilot Does Not Light
With air in the gas line, such as when the furnace is rst installed
or was "OFF" all summer, the pilot ame may be too lean to ignite
on the rst few trials. Turn the gas control knob to PILOT position
and depress the gas control knob. Hold the gas control knob down
to bleed the line;
1. Use lighter rod to light pilot with a match.
If Pilot Does Not Light By Any Means
1. Check gas control knob for being in the "Pilot" position.
2. Check pilot adjustment for being full open (counterclockwise
to open).
3. If gas is available in the supply tubing, the pilot orice and/
or pilot burner is probably restricted by a spider web. Clean
pilot assembly and relight.
If Pilot Does Not Remain "On" After Releasing Gas Control
Knob
1. Follow instructions and hold gas control knob down longer
and harder.
2. Determine if pilot ame extends past thermopile; if not, adjust
pilot ame or clean pilot burner.
3. Replace thermopile if millivolt reading is less than 300 millivolts
when wall mounted on/off device or remote bulb is turned
OFF. Replace gas control if magnet dropout millivolt reading
is over 100 millivolts.
Pilot Outage During Normal Operation
1. Check input by manifold pressure gauge or gas meter.
2. Check millivolt output when furnace is in operation. If millivolt
output decreases during furnace operation gas control may
be defective.
Main Gas Valve Does Not Open When The ON/OFF Device Is
Turned "On"
1. Check millivolt output of thermopile.
2. On/off device wires may be broken.
3. On/off device may be defective.
