VENTILATION

WARNING

THIS APPLIANCE IS UNVENTED AND MUST BE

USED ONLY IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.

The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be

obstructed. DO NOT use in a tightly enclosed area. Any

combustion process requires and consumes oxygen, and may

produce carbon monoxide. This heater must be operated with

adequate ventilation. Two openings directly to the outdoors must

be provided, one low and one high, preferably on opposite sides

of the area to be heated. Each of these openings must provide

at least three square inches of combustion air-intake area and

exhaust outlet area for every 1000 BTUs per hour of heater input

rate in order to complete the combustion/ventilation process.

Provide additional ventilation for any additional fuel-burning

appliances and/or additional occupants.

Do not exceed the gas supply pressures shown on rating plate

for Model HS35LP. The maximum inlet gas supply pressure and

the minimum inlet gas supply pressure (for purposes of input

GENERAL INFORMATION

A. Your portable gas-fired infra-red heater comes fully assembled

and is tested at the factory for proper gas and input as stated

on the nameplate.

B. Each heater is equipped with a 100% safety shutoff, push

button valve which will automatically stop the flow of gas in

the event the heater fails to operate for any reason. A tip over

switch and an excess flow check are also standard on the

model HS35LP.

C. Before proceeding with this installation, be sure to inspect

for damages. The freight company must be notified of any

damages and request that an inspection be made. Enerco

Technical Products will send replacements for damaged parts

only after receiving a signed inspection report to prove the

liability of the freight company.

FOR SAFE OPERATION

A. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Read and

adhere to these instructions. DO NOT allow anyone

who has not read these instructions to assemble, light,

adjust or operate this heater.

B. LP-Gas IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE. In the event of a leak,

LP-Gas will accumulate and the possibility of a fire is present.

LP-Gas is scented and its strong odor is readily detectable.

Never strike a match, bring any flame or create an electric

spark in an enclosure when you smell LP-Gas. Ventilate the

area thoroughly, move the heater outside, and correct the

source of the leak before attempting to light any appliance.

C. Always operate the heater with the LP-Gas cylinder in an

upright position on a level non-combustible surface. NEVER

PLACE THE CYLINDER ON ITS SIDE WHEN OPERATING

THE HEATER.

D. DO NOT attempt to operate the heater with any gas

other than that indicated on the heater nameplate.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

For the U.S. and/or Canada, the installation of this appliance must

comply with local and/or Provincial codes or, in the absence of

these codes,

• With the (U.S.) National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 – Latest

Edition, AND with the (U.S.) Standard for the Storage and

Handling of Liquified Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58, OR

• With the current (Canadian) CAN/CGA B149.1 AND B149.2

INSTALLATION CODES.

This heater (including hose and regulator assembly) must be

inspected before each use and at least annually by a qualified

service person. If the hose for Model HS35LP shows evidence

of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it must

be replaced prior to the heater being put into operation. The

replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the

manufacturer. See the parts list.

ODOR FADE WARNING

WARNING

Asphyxiation Hazard

• Do not use in unventilated areas.

• The flow of combustion and ventilation air must

not be obstructed.

• Proper ventilation air must be provided to

support the combustion air requirements of the

heater being used.

• Refer to the specification section of the heater’s

manual, heater dataplate, or contact the factory

to determine combustion air ventilation

requirements of the heater.

• Lack of proper ventilation air will lead to

improper combustion.

• Improper combustion can lead to carbon

monoxide poisoning leading to serious injury or

death. Symptom of carbon monoxide poisoning

can include headaches, dizziness and difficulty

in breathing.

FUEL GAS ODOR

LP gas and natural gas have man-made odorants

added specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks.

If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the

fuel gas. Since Propane (LP) is heavier than air you

should smell for the gas odor low to the floor. ANY

GAS ODOR IS YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE

ACTION!

• Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas.

Do not operate any electrical switches. Do not pull

any power supply or extension cords. Do not light

matches or any other source of flame. Do not use your

telephone.

• Get everyone out of the building and away from the

area immediately.

• Close all propane (LP) gas tank or cylinder fuel supply

valves, or the main fuel supply valve located at the

meter if you use natural gas.

• Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air and may settle in

low areas. When you have reason to suspect a propane

leak, keep out of all low areas.

• Use your neighbor’s phone and call your fuel gas

supplier and your fire department. Do not re-enter the

building or area.

• Stay out of the building and away from the area until

declared safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas

supplier.

• FINALLY, let the fuel gas service person and the

firefighters check for escaped gas. Have them air out

the building and area before you return. Properly trained

service people must repair any leaks, check for further

leakages, and then relight the appliance for you.

ODOR FADING - NO ODOR DETECTED

• Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot

smell the odor of the man-made chemical added to

propane (LP) or natural gas. You must determine if you

can smell the odorant in these fuel gases.

• Learn to recognize the odor of propane (LP) gas and

natural gas. Local propane (LP) gas dealers will be more

than happy to give you a scratch and sniff pamphlet.

Use it to become familiar with the fuel gas odor.

• Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being

around an odor for a period of time can affect your

sensitivity to that particular odor. Odors present in

animal confinement buildings can mask fuel gas odor.

• The odorant in propane (LP) gas and natural gas

is colorless and the intensity of its odor can fade

under some circumstances.

• If there is an underground leak, the movement of gas

through the soil can filter the odorant.

• Propane (LP) gas odor may differ in intensity at different

levels. Since Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air, there

may be more odor at lower levels.

• Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you

continue to detect any gas odor, no matter how small,

treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as

discussed previously.
