UNIT LOCATION
Location Recommendations
1. When locating the heater, consider general space and
heating requirements, availability of gas and electrical
supply, and proximity to vent locations.
2. When locating units, it is important to consider that the
combustion air and exhaust vent piping must be connected
to the outside atmosphere. Vent terminals should be located
adjacent to one another. Maximum equivalent vent lengths
are listed in “Section A - General Instruction - All Units” of the
venting instructions.
3. Be sure the structural support at the unit location site is
adequate to support the unit's weight. For proper operation
the unit must be installed in a level horizontal position.
4. Do not install units in locations where the flue products
can be drawn into the adjacent building openings such as
windows, fresh air intakes, etc.
5. Be sure that the minimum clearances to combustible
materials and recommended service clearances are
maintained. Units are designed for installation with the
minimum clearances as shown in Table 4.1.

1. Be sure the means of suspension is adequate to support
the weight of the unit (see page 18 for unit weights).
2. For proper operation, the unit must be installed in a level
horizontal position.
3. Clearances to combustibles as previously specified must be
strictly maintained.
4. For model sizes 30-75, before lifting the heater for
suspension, the mounting brackets must be installed as
follows (for bracket accessory installation on model sizes
100-125, see the latest revision of literature 6-594):
•Forstandard(leftside)controlaccess,removethe3
screws and mounting bracket along the top edge of both
the front and back of the unit. Install the front bracket as
shown in Figure 5.1 by aligning the screw holes on the
bracket with the screw holes on the top edge of the unit.
Repeat for the bracket on the back of the unit.
•Forrightsidecontrolaccess,removethe3screwsand
mounting bracket along the top edge of both the front and
back of the unit. Turn the unit over and install the front
bracket as shown in Figure 5.2 by aligning the screw holes
on the bracket with the screw holes on the top edge of the
unit (originally the bottom edge). Repeat for the bracket on
the back of the unit.
5a. Suspension by screws/lag bolts: Secure the mounting
brackets to the ceiling joists or truss, using 1/4" screws with
1/2" washers. These unit mounting brackets are slotted to
accommodate joists on 16" or 24" centerlines. See page 18
for mounting bracket dimensions.
5b. Suspension by threaded rod: The unit can also be hung
with threaded rod utilizing the same mounting brackets.
Attach the threaded rod to the unit mounting brackets,
securing with a top and bottom nut. For model sizes
100-125, the units are designed to be suspended by
threaded rod without the use of brackets. On each piece of
3/8" threaded rod used, screw a nut a distance of about 1"
onto the end of the threaded rods that will be screwed into
the unit heater. Place a washer over the end of the threaded
rod and screw the threaded rod into the unit heater weld nuts
on the top of the heater at least 5 turns, and no more than
10 turns. Tighten the nut first installed onto the threaded rod
to prevent the rod from turning.
Next, drill holes into a steel channel or angle iron at the
same centerline dimensions as those chosen for the heater
being installed. The steel channels or angle iron pieces need
to span and be fastened to appropriate structural members.
Cut the threaded rods to the preferred length, push them
through the holes in the steel channel or angle iron and
secure with washers and lock nuts, lock washers and nuts,
or a washer with double nut arrangement.
NOTE: A pipe hanger adapter kit, shown in Figure 5.3, is
available as an accessory. One kit consists of four drilled
3/4" IPS pipe caps and four 3/8" - 16 x 1-3/4" capscrews to
facilitate threaded pipe suspension.
5c. Shelf mounted units: The unit heater can also be installed
on a shelf. The mounting brackets will need to be attached
to the heater the same manner as explained in note #4,
however, to mount on a shelf the brackets must go on the
bottom of the heater. The brackets must be affixed to the
shelf using similar screws (1/4" screw with 1/2" washer) as
overhead joist or truss mounting. Be sure all clearance to
combustible requirements are met.

Model HDS/HDC unit heaters must be vented with the proper
passageway as described in these instructions to convey
flue gases from the unit or the vent connector to the outside
atmosphere. The heaters must also have a separate combustion
air intake pipe to bring in fresh air for combustion from the
outside atmosphere.
The venting instructions are organized in sections, based on
installation type. The sections are identified as follows:
Instructions Applicable Installation Instructions
Section by Vent System Type
A General instructions for ALL installations
B VERTICAL 2-PIPE vent systems j
C HORIZONTAL 2-PIPE vent systems j
D HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL
CONCENTRIC vent systems j
j The differences between vertical and horizontal vent systems in 2-Pipe or
concentric vent configurations will be identified in “Section A - General
Instructions – All Units”.
Section A – General Instructions – All Units
A1. If the unit heater being installed is replacing existing
equipment and using the existing vent system from that
equipment, inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch, as required in the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1 or CSA B149.1 Installation Code-latest edition
and these instructions. Determine that there is no blockage
or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies,
which could cause an unsafe condition.
A2. The combustion air pipe and vent pipe should be galvanized
steel or other suitable corrosion resistant material. Follow
the National Fuel Gas Code for minimum thickness of vent
material. The minimum thickness for connectors varies
depending on the pipe diameter. Do not vent unit with PVC
or other forms of plastic venting material.
A3. All heaters come with factory installed vent and combustion
air adapters for attaching the vent pipe to the heater. Attach
the vent pipe to the adapter with 3 corrosion resistant
screws. (Drill pilot holes through the vent pipe and adapter
prior to screwing in place). Vent pipe must not be smaller
than the connector size.
A4. Refer to Table 6.1 for total equivalent vent pipe lengths,
making the vent system as straight as possible. The
equivalent length of a 3” elbow is 1’ and for a 4” elbow is 5’.
A5. A minimum of 12" straight pipe is recommended from the
flue outlet before turns in the vent pipe.
A6. Horizontal sections of vent pipe are to be installed with a
minimum downward slope from the appliance of 1/4" per foot
and suspended securely from overhead structures at points
not greater than 3' apart.
A7. Fasten individual lengths of vent together with at least 3
corrosion-resistant sheet metal screws.
A8. Keep single wall vent pipe at least 6" from combustible
materials. For double wall vent pipe, follow the vent
pipe manufacturers clearances to combustibles. The
minimum distance from combustible materials is based
on the combustible material surface not exceeding 160°F.
Clearance from the vent pipe (or the top of the unit) may be
required to be greater than 6" if heat damage other than fire
could result (such as material distortion or discoloration).
A9. Avoid venting through unheated space when possible.
When venting does pass through an unheated space or
if the unit is installed in an environment that promotes
condensation, insulate runs greater than 5' to minimize
condensation. Inspect for leakage prior to insulating and use
insulation that is noncombustible with a rating of not less
than 400°F. Install a tee fitting at the low point of the vent
system and provide a drip leg with a clean out cap as shown
in Figure 8.1.
INSTALLATION - VENTING
WARNING
1. Gas fired heating equipment must be vented - do not
operate unvented.
2. A built-in power exhauster is provided - additional external
power exhausters are not required or permitted.
3. If an existing heater is being replaced, it may be necessary
to resize the venting systems. Improperly sized venting
systems can result in vent gas leakage or the formation of
condensate. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1 (NFPA 54) or CSA-B149.1 Installation Code - latest
edition. Failure to follow these instructions can result in
serious injury or death.

A10. When the vent passes through a combustible INTERIOR
wall or floor, a metal thimble 4" greater than the vent
diameter is necessary. If there is 6' or more of vent pipe in
the open space between the appliance and where the vent
pipe passes through the wall or floor, the thimble need only
be 2" greater than the diameter of the vent pipe. If a thimble
is not used, all combustible material must be cut away
to provide 6" of clearance. Where authorities have
jurisdiction type B vent may be used for the last section
of vent pipe to maintain clearance to combustibles while
passing through wall or floor (see Figure 6.1). Any material
used to close the opening must be noncombustible.
A11. Seal all seams and joints of un-gasketed single wall pipe
with metal tape or Silastic suitable for temperatures up to
400°F. Wrap the tape 2 full turns around the vent pipe. One
continuous section of double wall vent pipe may be used
within the vent system to pass through the wall to a listed
vent cap. Refer to instruction A12 in “Section A – General
Instructions – All Units” for attaching double wall pipe to
single wall pipe.
A12. The following are general instructions for double wall (type
B) terminal pipe installation:
How to attach a single wall vent terminal to double wall
(type B) vent pipe:
1. Look for the “flow” arrow on the vent pipe.
2. Slide the vent terminal inside the exhaust end of the
double wall vent pipe.
3. Drill 3 holes through the pipe and the vent terminal.
Using 3/4" long sheet metal screws, attach the cap to
the pipe. Do not overtighten.
How to connect a single wall vent system to a double
wall (type B) vent pipe:
1. Slide the single wall pipe inside the inner wall of the
double wall pipe.
2. Drill 3 holes through both walls of the single and double
wall vent pipes. Using 3/4" sheet metal screws, attach
the 2 pieces of pipe. Do not overtighten.
3. The gap between the single and double wall pipe must
be sealed but it is not necessary to fill the full volume
of the annular area. To seal, run a large bead of 400°F
silastic around the gap.
A13. Vent termination clearances must be maintained:
A14. Do NOT vent this appliance into a masonry chimney.
A15. Do NOT use dampers or other devices in the vent or
combustion air pipes.
A16.
The venting system must be exclusive to a single
appliance, and no other appliance is allowed to be vented
into it.
A17. Precautions must be taken to prevent degradation of
building materials by flue products.
A18. Single wall vent pipe must not pass through any
unoccupied attic, inside wall, concealed space, or floor.
A19. Uninsulated single wall vent pipe must not be used
outdoors for venting appliances in regions where the 99%
winter design temperature is below 32°F.A19. Long runs
of horizontal or vertical combustion air pipes may require
insulation in very cold climates to prevent the buildup of
condensation on the outside of the pipe where the pipe
passes through conditioned spaces.
A20. Vertical combustion air pipes should be fitted with a tee
with a drip leg and a clean out cap to prevent against the
possibility of any moisture in the combustion air pipe from
entering the unit. The drip leg should be inspected and
cleaned out periodically during the heating season.
A21. The vent terminal must be:

Section C – Horizontal 2-Pipe Vent System
Installation
C1. This section applies to horizontally vented 2-pipe vent
systems (one combustion air inlet pipe and one vent
pipe) and is in addition to “Section A – General
Instructions – All Units”. Category III vent systems listed
by a nationally recognized agency and matching the
diameters specified may be used. Different brands of
vent pipe materials may not be intermixed.
Under no
circumstances should two sections of double wall vent pipe
be joined together within one horizontal vent system due to
the inability to verify complete seal of inner pipes.
C2. Horizontal vent systems terminate horizontally
(sideways).
C3. All horizontal vents must be terminated with a listed vent
cap. The cap must terminate a minimum distance from
the external wall, as summarized in Figure 9.1.
C4
. The termination of horizontally vented system must
extend 16" beyond the exterior surface of an exterior
wall.
C5
. The combustion air pipe must be a minimum of 6" below
the vent pipe, and 4" from the exterior wall.
C6. Construct the vent system as shown in Figure 9.1.
C7
. When horizontal vents pass through a combustible wall
(up to 22" thick), the vent passage must be constructed
and insulated as shown in Figure 9.2.
C8. The vent must be supported as shown in Figure 9.2.
C9. When condensation may be a problem, the vent system
shall not terminate over public walkways or over an area
where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance or
hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of
regulators, relief openings, or other equipment.
C10. Maintain a 1/4" per foot downward slope away from the
heater and place a drip leg with clean out near the exit of
the vent as shown in Figure 9.1, or allow the condensate
to drip out the end.
C11. For a vent termination located under an eave, the
distance of the overhang must not exceed 24". The
clearance to combustibles above the exterior vent must
be maintained at a minimum of 12". Consult the National
Fuel Gas Code for additional requirements for eaves that

Section D – Concentric Vent System
Installation
D1.
This section applies to both horizontally and vertically
vented concentric vent systems as defined in “Section A
General Instructions – All Units”, and is in addition to the
instructions in that section.
D2. When utilizing the concentric vent option, it should have
been predetermined whether the appliance will be
horizontally or vertically vented. Before proceeding, verify
that the concentric vent kit received contains the correct
components for the installation:
For Vertically Vented Units (Refer to Figure 10.1):
j
Concentric adapter assembly (same for horizontal and
vertical kits)
k
Standard listed vent cap
l
Specially designed inlet terminal (part #5H0751540001)
For Horizontally Vented Units (Refer to Figure 10.2):
j
Concentric adapter assembly (same for horizontal and
vertical kits)
k
Special vent termination cap (part #5H0751500001)
l
Special inlet air guard
D3. Once the kit contents have been verified as correct for the
direction of venting, the concentric vent adapter box is to
be installed. Determine the location of the box. Be sure to
maintain all clearances as listed in these instructions.
D4. The adapter box is to be mounted on the interior side of
the building. It must not be mounted outside the building.
The adapter box has integral mounting holes for ease of
installation.
D5. The adapter box can be mounted flush to the wall (for
horizontal kits) or to the ceiling (for vertical kits). The box
can also be offset from the wall or ceiling by using field
supplied brackets. When mounting the box, consider
serviceability and access to the vent and combustion air
pipes. If the box is to be mounted using field supplied
brackets, these brackets must be strong enough to rigidly
secure the box to the wall or ceiling, and should be made
from corrosion resistant material.
D6. Determine the length of the vent pipe and combustion air
inlet pipe for the selected location. THE VENT PIPE WILL
PASS THROUGH THE CONCENTRIC VENT BOX. THE
LAST SECTION OF VENT PIPE IS A CONTINUOUS
LENGTH OF DOUBLE WALL “B” VENT. See section A12
for attaching and terminating double wall pipe. Begin with
pipe lengths on the concentric pipe side of the adapter box
referring to Figures 10.1 and 10.2. These pipes will extend
through the building wall or roof as well as any added length
for the thickness of the wall and the offset from any field
installed brackets.
For Vertical Concentric Vent Kits
(refer to Figure 10.1):
•Thebottomofthecombustionairintakepipemust
terminate above the snow line, or at least 12" above the
roof, whichever distance is greater.
•Thebottomoftheventcapmustterminateatleast6"
above the top of the combustion air intake cap.
For Horizontal Concentric Vent Kits
(refer to Figure 10.2):
•Thecombustionairintakepipemustterminateatleast
1" from the wall to prevent water from running down the
wall and into the pipe.
•Thebackoftheventcapmustterminateatleast14"from
the combustion air intake pipe.
D7. Cut the concentric side vent and combustion air pipes to
the proper length as determined in the previous step. See
Table 11.1 for combustion air and vent pipe sizes. The pipes
must be single wall galvanized or stainless steel material,
except for the last section of vent pipe, which must be one
continuous length of double wall B-vent extended through
the concentric vent box and combustion air inlet pipe on the
concentric side of the box.
D8. Allow the concentric side vent pipe to pass through the
concentric vent adapter box, as shown in Figure 11.1.
Attach the double wall vent pipe to the single wall vent pipe
that goes to the unit. Be sure to seal the joint and the open
area around the double wall vent. Seal all joints and seams
using sealant suitable for temperatures up to 400°F.

INSTALLATION - GAS CONNECTIONS
GAS CONNECTIONS
1. Installation of piping must conform with local building codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) - latest Edition. In Canada,
installation must be in accordance with CSA-B149.1.
2. Piping to units should conform with local and national
requirements for type and volume of gas handled, and
pressure drop allowed in the line. Refer to Table 12.1 to
determine the cubic feet per hour (CFH) for the type of gas
and size of unit to be installed. Using this CFH value and the
length of pipe necessary, determine the pipe diameter from
Table 12.2. Where several units are served by the same
main, the total capacity, CFH and length of main must be
considered. Avoid pipe sizes smaller than 1/2". Table 12.2
allows for a 0.3" W.C. pressure drop in the supply pressure
from the building main to the unit. The inlet pressure to the
unit must be 6-7" W.C. for natural gas and 11-14" W.C. for
propane gas. When sizing the inlet gas pipe diameter, make
sure that the unit supply pressure can be met after the
0.3" W.C. has been subtracted. If the 0.3" W.C. pressure drop
is too high, refer to the Gas Engineers Handbook for other
gas pipe capacities.
3. Install a ground joint union with brass seat and a manual
shut-off valve adjacent to the unit for emergency shut-off
and easy servicing of controls, including a 1/8" NPT plugged
tapping accessible for test gauge connection (see Figure 12.1).
4. Use 2 wrenches when connecting field piping to units.
5. Provide a sediment trap before each unit in the line where
low spots cannot be avoided (see Figure 12.1).
6. When pressure/leak testing, pressures above 14" W.C.
(1/2 psi), close the field installed shut-off valve, disconnect
the appliance and its combination gas control from the gas
supply line, and plug the supply line before testing. When
testing pressures 14" W.C. (1/2 psi) or below, close the
manual shut-off valve on the appliance before testing.

For pipe capacity with propane gas, divide natural gas capacity by 1.6. Example:
What is the propane gas pipe capacity for 60' of 1-1/4" pipe? The natural gas
capacity is 400 CFH. Divide by 1.6 to get 250 CFH for propane gas.
WARNING
1. All field gas piping must be pressure/leak tested prior to
operation. Never use an open flame. Use a soap solution or
equilavent for testing.
2. Gas pressure to appliance controls must never exceed
14" W.C. (1/2 psi).
3. To reduce the opportunity for condensation, the minimum
sea level input to the appliance, as indicated on the serial
plate, must not be less than 5% below the rated input, or
5% below the minimum rated input of dual rated units.
CAUTION
1. Purging of air from gas lines should be performed as
described in ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition “National Fuel
Gas Code”, or in Canada CSA-B149 codes.
2. When leak testing the gas supply piping system, the
appliance and its combination gas control must be isolated
during any pressure testing in excess of 14" W.C. (1/2 psi).
3. The unit should be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its field installed manual shut-off
valve. This manual shut-off valve should be located within
6' of the heater.
4. Turn off all gas before installing appliance.

Modine’s gas-fired equipment standard input ratings are
certified by ETL. For elevations above 2,000', ANSI Z223.1
requires ratings be reduced 4 percent for each 1000' above sea
level. For units in Canada, CSA requires that ratings be reduced
10 percent at elevations above 2,000'. The high altitude
adjustment instructions and pressure switch kits listed in this
manual are for use with units that will be installed over 2,000'
These methods and kits comply with both ANSI Z223.1 and
CSA requirements.
If a unit is to be installed at higher elevations AND converted from
natural gas to propane gas operation, a propane conversion kit
must be used in conjunction with the pressure adjustment
methods and pressure switch kits listed herein. For the selection
and installation instructions for propane conversion kits, please
see the latest revision of Modine Manual 75-515.
Selection of the Proper Pressure and Kit
To determine the proper manifold pressure at altitude and if
required, the proper combustion air pressure switch kit, the full
model number of the heater, the fuel to be used, and the
altitude the unit will be installed at must be known. Refer to the
unit serial plate or carton label to obtain the necessary
information about the unit.
After obtaining this information, refer to the gas pressure and
selection charts shown in Tables 13.1 through 13.3. The pressure
charts are differentiated by elevation, fuel type, and country
the product is being installed in. The selection charts are
differentiated by product type, altitude and fuel type. If
converting from natural gas to propane gas and operation
at high altitude, both a propane conversion kit and a
pressure switch kit must be used (if applicable). Selection
charts include the proper kit suffix, when required.
Manifold Pressure Adjustment
The inlet pressure to the unit must be confirmed to be within
acceptable limits (6-7" W.C. for natural gas and 11-14" W.C. for
propane gas) before opening the shutoff valve or the
combination gas valve may be damaged.
Heaters for the use with natural gas have gas valves that need
to be field adjusted to 3.5" W.C. manifold pressure at 7.0" W.C.
inlet pressure.
Units for use with propane gas have gas valves that need to be
field adjusted to 10.0" W.C. manifold pressure at 14.0" W.C.
inlet pressure.
Installation above 2,000' elevation requires adjustment of the
manifold pressure as described.
Derated BTU Content Gas and Manifold Pressure
Calculation
Some utility companies may derate the BTU content (heating
value) of the gas provided at altitude to a value other than 1,050
BTU/ft
3
for natural gas or 2,500 BTU/ft
3
for propane gas to allow
certain heating appliances to be used with no manifold pressure
adjustments. For this reason it is necessary that the supplying
utility be contacted for detailed information about the gas type
and BTU content (heating value) before operating any heater.
Tables 13.1 and 13.2 show the standard derated heating values
(4% per 1,000' of elevation in the USA and 10% between 2,001'
and 4,500' elevation in Canada) of natural and propane gases
at various altitudes. If the utility is supplying gas with heating
values as shown in Tables 13.1 and 13.2, the manifold pressure
should be set to 3.5" W.C for natural gas and 10.0" W.C. for
propane gas.
NOTE: Only the high fire gas pressure need be adjusted, low
fire gas pressure should remain the same.
j
Values shown are for 3.5" W.C. manifold pressure, for other BTU content values (available from local utility) use Equation 14.1 to calculate manifold pressure.
k
Values shown are for 10.0" W.C. manifold pressure, for other BTU content values (available from local utility) use Equation 14.1 to calculate manifold pressure.
l
When installed at altitudes above 2,000', a pressure switch may need to be changed. Refer to Table 13.3 to determine if a switch change is required.
m
Gas heating values are derated 4% per 1,000' of elevation in the USA and 10% between 2,000' and 4,500' elevation in Canada in accordance with ANSI Z223.1
and CSA-B149, respectively.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Location of thermostat should be determined by heating
requirements and be mounted on an inside wall about 5' above
floor level where it will not be affected by heat from the unit
or other sources, or drafts from frequently opened doors. See
instructions packed with thermostat.
Wiring Adjustments for Blower Motors
The blowers used on Modine HDC units are direct drive and
equipped with three speed motors. Air temperature rise of the
unit is determined by the speed setting and the amount of static
pressure in the system. Units are normally shipped with motors set
at high speed. Motor speed is changed by connecting the motor
lead for the desired fan speed to the “EAC” or “Blo” terminal of the
control board. Unused motor leads for other speeds are placed on
the “Park” terminals of the board. See the wiring diagram on
page 21.
When applying a blower equipped unit to a duct system or other
load, consult the performance curves on this page to determine
the air temperature rise for a given motor speed range and static
pressure. Verify that the static pressure on the outlet of the unit
does not exceed the maximum specified for the unit. If static
pressure is too high it must be reduced either by modifications to
the system or using the medium or low motor speed. If the unit
shuts down on high limit during normal operation, a higher motor
speed should be used.

INSTALLATION - OPERATION
OPERATION
Prior to Operation
Although this unit has been assembled and fire-tested at the
factory, the following pre-operational procedures should be
performed to assure proper on-site operation.
1. Turn off power to the unit at the disconnect switch. Check that
fuses or circuit breakers are in place and sized correctly. Turn
all hand gas valves to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the side control access panel.
3. Check that the supply voltage matches the unit supply voltage
listed on the Model Identification plate. Verify that all wiring
is secure and properly protected. Trace circuits to insure that
the unit has been wired according to the wiring diagram. If
installed at altitudes above 2,000' and the high altitude kit
includes a combustion air proving switch, replace the switch
in the unit with the switch provided in the kit. Take care to
ensure that the tubing and electrical connections are securely
fastened.
4. Check to insure that the venting system is installed correctly
and free from obstructions. Before you start use the following
steps to verify that the venting system is adequately sized:
a. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
b. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal
pitch, as required in the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1 (NFPA 54) or CSA B149.1 Installation Code-latest
edition and these instructions. Determine that there is
no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other
deficiencies, which could cause an unsafe condition.
c. In so 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. Turn on clothes dryers and any
exhaust fans such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts,
so they shall operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a
summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
d. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being
inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so that the
appliance will operate continuously.
e. After it has been determined that each appliance connected
to the venting system properly vents when tested as outlined
above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace
dampers and any other gas-burning appliance to their
previous conditions of use.
f. If improper venting is observed during any of the above
tests, the venting system must be corrected.
5. Check to see that there are no obstructions to the intake and
discharge of the unit.
6.
Check fan clearance. Fan should not contact casing when
spun by hand.
7. Check to make sure that all filters are in place and that
they are installed properly according to direction of air flow
(if applicable).
8. Perform a visual inspection of the unit to make sure no
damage has occurred during installation. Check to ensure all
fasteners are in place and the burner openings are properly
aligned with the heat exchanger tubes and that the gas
orifices are centered in the burner inspirator tube opening.
9. Check that all horizontal deflector blades are open a
minimum of 30° as measured from vertical.
10. Turn on power to the unit at the disconnect switch.
11. Check the thermostat, ignition control, gas valve, and supply
fan blower motor for electrical operation. If these do not
function, recheck the wiring diagram.
12. Check the blower wheel for proper direction of rotation when
compared to the air flow direction arrow on the blower
housing (if applicable). Blower wheel rotation, not air
movement, must be checked as some air will be delivered
through the unit with the blower wheel running backwards.
13. For blower units, check the blower speed (rpm). Refer to
blower adjustments for modification.
14. Check the motor speed (rpm).
15. Check the motor voltage.
16. Check the motor amp draw to make sure it does not exceed
the motor nameplate rating.
17. Recheck the gas supply pressure at the field installed
manual shut-off valve. The minimum inlet pressure should
be 6" W.C. on natural gas and 11" W.C. on propane gas.
The maximum inlet pressure for either gas is 14" W.C. If
inlet pressure exceeds 14" W.C., a gas pressure regulator
must be added upstream of the combination gas valve.
18. Open the field installed manual gas shut-off valve.
19. Place the manual main gas valve on the combination gas
valve in the “ON” position. Call for heat with the thermostat.
20. Check to make sure that the main gas valve opens. Check
the manifold gas pressure (see “Main Gas Adjustment”)
while the supply fan blower is operating.
21. Check to insure that gas controls sequence properly (see
“Control Operating Sequence”).
If you are not familiar with
the unit’s controls (i.e. combination gas control), refer to the
control manufacturers literature supplied with the unit.
22. Once proper operation of the unit has been verified,
remove any jumper wires that were required for testing.
24. Replace the side control access panel.
25. If installed at altitudes above 2,000', affix label included with
high altitude kit and fill in all fields with a permanent marker.
Main Burner Adjustment
The gas pressure regulator (integral to the combination gas
control) is adjusted at the factory for average gas conditions. It is
important that gas be supplied to the unit heater in accordance
with the input rating on the serial plate. Actual input should be
checked and necessary adjustments made after the unit heater
is installed. Over-firing, a result of too high an input, reduces
the life of the appliance and increases maintenance. Under no
circumstances should the input exceed that shown on the serial
plate. Measuring the manifold pressure is done at the outlet
pressure tap of the gas valve.
To Adjust the Manifold Pressure
1. Move the field installed manual shut-off valve to the “OFF”
position.
2. Remove the 1/8
"
pipe plug from the outlet pressure tap on
the gas valve and attach a water manometer of “U” tube type
which is at least 12
"
high.
3. Move the field installed manual gas shut-off valve to the “ON”
position.
4. Create a high-fire call for heat from the thermostat.
5. Refer to Table 12.1 to determine the correct high fire manifold
pressure for the gas type of the unit. Pressures at 0-2,000'
elevation are 3.5" W.C. for natural gas, 10" W.C. for propane
gas, for elevations above 2,000' refer to the instructions on
page 13. Adjust the main gas pressure regulator spring to
achieve the proper manifold pressure (for location, see the
combination gas control literature supplied with unit).
6. After adjustment, move the field installed manual shut-off
valve to the “OFF” position and replace the 1/8
"
pipe plug.
7. After the plug is in place, move the field installed manual
shut-off valve to the “ON” position and recheck pipe plugs for
gas leaks with soap solution.
IMPORTANT
1. To prevent premature heat exchanger failure, observe
heat exchanger tubes. If the tubes become red while
blower and furnace are in operation, check to be sure the
blower has been set to the proper rpm for the application.
Refer to page 16 for blower adjustments.
2. Start-up and adjustment procedures must be performed
by a qualified service agency.

CONTROL OPERATING SEQUENCE / UNIT COMPONENTS
Upon a call for heat from the thermostat, power is supplied to
the power exhauster motor. The unit will go through a purge
period and then the direct spark igniter will be energized. At the
same time, the main valve in the combination control valve will
open to allow gas to flow to the burners. If the fan motor has not
already started it will start shortly. If a flame is not sensed for
any reason the main valve will close and there will be a short
purge period before ignition is tried again. If the flame is not
sensed after 4 tries there will be at least a one hour wait before
ignition is tried again.

SERVICE / MAINTENANCE / TROUBLESHOOTING
To check most of the possible remedies in the troubleshooting
guide listed in Table 20.1, refer to the applicable sections of the
manual.
General Maintenance
The unit and venting system must be checked once a year by
a qualified service technician.
All installation and service of these units must be
performed by a qualified installation and service agency.
Before any service, BE SURE TO TURN OFF GAS AT THE
MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE AHEAD OF THE COMBINATION
GAS CONTROL AND TURN OFF ALL ELECTRIC POWER TO
THE HEATER.
1. Service air moving components annually.
a. Check fan for fit on motor shaft and for damage to blades.
2. Keep unit free from dust, dirt, grease, and foreign matter,
paying particular attention to:
a. Combustion air inlets.
b. Burners and burner orifices. Turn off gas ahead of the
combination gas control and shut off electric power to
the heater. Remove the access panel, open the union
on the gas line, and disconnect the igniter and sensor
wires. Remove the screws that attach the burner tray to
the header plate and remove the burner tray and manifold
assembly from the heater. Carefully clean the burners
with a wire brush or other suitable means. Replace any
damaged or deteriorating burners or orifices. Install the
burner assembly back on to the header making certain
that all screws, pipes and electrical connections are tight.
CAUTION: Be careful when handling the igniter and flame
sensor.
3. Inspect the flame sensor and igniter for deterioration and/or
cracks.
4. Verify that the burners are touching each other at the
carryover points. This will ensure flame carryover from burner
to burner.
a. Clean exterior of heat exchanger tubes.
b. Fan blade.
5. Check wiring for possible loose connections.
6. Controls – The gas valves and piping should be checked
annually for general cleanliness and tightness. The gas
controls should be checked to insure that the unit is
operating properly. See control instruction sheets furnished
separately with the unit heater.
7. Power exhaust assembly/motors – The power exhaust
motor bearings have been lubricated for long life and do not
require additional lubrication. In dirty atmosphere, it may be
desirable to clean the motors and blower housing and blow
out the cooling air passages of the motor with compressed air.
8. Perform periodic cleaning of inlet and vent terminal screens.
CAUTION
1. Service or repair of this equipment must be performed by
a qualified service agency.
2. Do not attempt to reuse any mechanical or electrical
controllers which have been wet. Replace defective controller.
WARNING
When servicing or repairing this equipment, use only factory-
approved service replacement parts. A complete replacement
parts list may be obtained by contacting the factory. Refer
to the rating plate on the appliance for complete appliance
model number, serial number, and company address. Any
substitution of parts or controls not approved by the factory
will be at the owners risk.
