1. APPLICATION: All models are approved to ANSI Z83.26-2014 / CSA 2.37-2014 for heating of outdoor
commercial / industrial / residential patios and areas, and are also approved to ANSI Z83.19a-2011 / CSA
2.35a-2011 for heating indoor and outdoor commercial / industrial / non-residential spaces.
It is beyond the scope of these instructions to consider all conditions that may be encountered.
Installation in the USA must conform to all local and national code requirements including the
current National Fuel Gas code ANSI Z223.1, and the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No
70 (latest edition). All installations in Canada must conform to local and national code require-
ments including, CAN/CGA-B149.1 installation code for gas burning appliances and equipment
and the Canadian Electrical Code PART 1 CSA C22.1 (latest edition). In case of discrepancy
due to revisions to standards and codes, the latest standards, codes, and installation manual
are in effect and take priority.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS APPLIANCE IN A RECESS, ALCOVE, OR ENCLOSURE.
Adequate free space must be provided to allow the products of combustion to escape from the
heater to atmosphere when installed outdoors, or to mechanical exhaust withdrawal when in-
stalled indoors. Also refer to “Outdoor” and “Indoor” definitions and requirements below.
Do not allow the products of combustion to accumulate in any space or enclosure.
OUTDOOR / PATIO Installation:
This heater is certified for use outdoors. Schwank warrants that the heater will operate
as designed for patio use in wind conditions up to 10 MPH . Higher wind speeds exceed-
ing 10 MPH can adversely affect heater performance and human comfort conditions on
the patio.
What is “Outdoor”?:
An appliance approved for “outdoor use” may be installed with shelter no more inclusive than:
• With walls on all sides, but with no overhead cover, (overhead permanently open)
• Or Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and no more than two side
walls. These side walls may be parallel, as in a breezeway, or at right angle to each other.
The open sides must be permanently open
• Or Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and three side walls, as
long as 30 percent or more of the horizontal periphery of the enclosure is permanently open.
If an “outdoor” condition is not met, this heater is approved for “indoor use”. Ventilation
requirements of local codes apply. See “Indoor Installation” below.
INDOOR Installation:
This heater is certified for space or spot heating of commercial / industrial non-
residential indoor spaces in accordance with ANSI Z83.19 / CSA 2.35.
Inadequate venting of a heater may result in asphyxiation, car-
bon monoxide poisoning, injury or death. Heating system vent-
ing must be in accordance with all local, state, provincial, and national codes (ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 in USA; B149.1 in Canada).
INDOOR INSTALLATION IN A STRUCTURE THAT HAS NO INSULATION IN THE ROOF
CAN RESULT IN THE FORMATION OF CONDENSATION ON COLD SURFACES.
