it may not be operating correctly.  
COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR  
These heaters shall not be installed in a con-  
fined space. The heater may be located in  
unusually tight construction provided the  
space is unconfined, or if confined, is pro-  
vided with two permanent openings commu-  
nicating directly with an additional room(s)  
of sufficient volume so that the combined  
volume of all connected spaces meets the  
criteria for an unconfined space, (National  
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition),  
Section 5.3). Generally 50 ft 3 per 1,000 BTU  
input of all operating appliances in the space.  
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and  
are for elevations up to 7,000 feet. Operating  
heateraboveelevationsof7,000feetmaycause  
ODS pilot outage.  
Due to high temperatures, the heater should  
belocatedoutoftrafficandawayfromfurniture  
and draperies.  
Ensure that the heater is clean when operat-  
ing.Excessivedustaccumulationontheburner  
and logs will increase the amount of carbon  
monoxide formation and could lead to carbon  
monoxide poisoning and death.  
Children and adults should be alerted to the  
hazardofhighsurfacetemperaturesandshould  
stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.  
CODES  
Young children should be carefully super-  
vised when they are in the same room with  
the heater.  
The National Fuel Gas Code defines a con-  
fined space as a space whose volume is less  
than 50 ft 3 per 1,000 BTU/Hr (4.8 m3 per kw)  
of the aggregate input rating of all appliances  
installed in that space and an unconfined  
space as a space whose volume is not less  
than 50 ft 3 per 1,000 BTU/Hr (4.8 m3 per kw)  
of the aggregate input rating of all appliances  
installed in that space. Rooms communicat-  
ing directly with the space in which the appli-  
ances are installed, through openings not  
furnishedwithdoors,areconsideredapart of  
the unconfined space.  
Adhere to all local codes or in their absence the  
latest edition of The National Fuel Gas Code  
ANSIZ223.1orNFPA54whichcanbeobtained

tute, Inc. (1430 Broadway, New York, NY,  
10018)orNationalFireProtectionAssociation,  
Inc. (Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA, 02269).  
Do not place clothing or other flammable  
material on or near the heater for the purpose  
of drying.  
Installation and repair should be done by a  
qualified service person. The heater should be  
inspected before use and at least annually by a  
professionalserviceperson.Morefrequentclean-  
ing may be required due to excessive lint from  
carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is important  
that control compartments, burners and circulat-  
ing air passageways of the heater be kept clean.

ONE OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED IN  
THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI  
Z223.1 1992, SECTION 5.3 OR APPLI-  
CABLE LOCAL CODES.  
1. Determine the volume of space — ft 3.  
Length x Width x Height = _____ ft 3  
(Includeadjoiningroomswithdoorlesspas-  
sageways or ventilation grills between  
rooms.)  
Minimizemodificationstoexistingconstruc-  
tion.RefertoFigure1 forlocationsuggestions.  
Example:20' (L)x16' (W)x8' (H)=2560ft 3  
2. Divide the volume of space by 50 ft 3 to  
determine the maximum BTU/Hr the space  
can support.  
Your options are:  
a. Rework equations adding the space of ad-  
joiningroom(s).Iftheextravolumeprovides  
an unconfined space, then remove door or  
add ventilation grills between rooms. Refer  
to National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1  
1992, Section 5.3.  
______ (volume of space – ft 3)/ 50 ft 3  
=
(Maximum BTU/Hr the space can support)  
Example: 2560 ft 3 / 50 ft 3 = 51.2  
or 51,200 BTU/Hr the space can support.  
b. Vent room directly to the outdoors. Refer to  
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 1992,  
Section 5.3.  
Figure 1  
3. Add the BTU/Hr of all the fuel burning appli-  
ances in the space.  
To ensure even heat distribution, it is best to  
positiontheheatercentrallyagainstthelongest  
wall of the room. Make sure there is adequate  
ventilation where the heater is installed. The  
gas appliance will shut off if the oxygen level  
falls below 18%.  
c. Install a lower BTU/Hr heater, to make the  
area an unconfined space.

Theseappliancesareuniquelysuitedforinstal-  
lations requiring a utility shelf positioned di-  
rectly above the fireplace. Utility shelves like  
these are commonly used for locating televi-  
sion sets and decorative plants.  
Example:

Gas appliance #1  
(water heater)  
34,000 BTU/Hr  
LOCATION OF FIREPLACE  
Total = 59,000 BTU/Hr  
Carefully select the best location for installa-  
tion of your VF4000 series Unvented Room  
Heater. The following factors should be taken  
into consideration:  
To provide for the lowest possible shelf sur-  
face, combustible materials used to support a  
utility shelf directly above these appliances  
should be positioned just above the appliance  
top spacers. The minimum height from the  
base of the VF4000 to the underside of com-  
bustible materials used to construct a utility  
shelf is 37-1/4” (946 mm).  
* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances.  
Direct-vent is sealed combustion and draws  
combustion air from the outdoors.  
4. Compare the maximum BTU/Hr the space  
can support with the actual amount of BTU/  
Hr used.  
Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork  
and windows.  
Location must not be affected by drafts  
caused by kitchen exhaust fans, return air reg-  
isters for forced air furnaces/air conditioners,  
windows or doors.  
_________ BTU/Hr  
(max. the space can support)  
_________ BTU/Hr  
The appliance should be mounted on a fully  
supported base extending the full width and  
depth of the unit. The appliance may be located  
on or near conventional construction materi-  
als. However, if installed on combustible mate-  
rials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a metal  
or wood barrier covering the entire bottom  
surface must be used.  
(actualamountofBTU/Hrused)  
Installation must provide adequate ventila-  
tion and combustion air.  
Example:  
51,200 BTU/Hr  
(max. the space can support)  
59,000 BTU/Hr  
Do not install the VF4000 series heaters in a  
sleeping room or bathroom.  
(actualamountofBTU/Hrused)  
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor  
level, a solid continuous platform must be  
constructed.  
Neverobstructthefrontopeningoftheheater  
or restrict the flow of combustion and ventila-  
tion air.  
The space in the above example is a confined  
space because the actual BTU/Hr used is more  
than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can sup-  
port. You must provide additional fresh air.  
WARNING: MAINTAIN MINIMUM  
CLEARANCES.
