WARNING: Asphyxiation Hazard
▪ Do not use this heater for heating human living quarters.
▪ 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 as listed in this manual.
▪ Refer to the specification section of the heater's manual or heater
dataplate 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. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning

Propane Fuel Gas Odor.
Propane gas and natural gas have man-made odorants added
specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks. It can be described as a
"rotten egg" smell. If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the
fuel gas. Since propane is heavier than air you should smell for the
gas odor low to the floor.
