⚠ DANGER ⚠
• All gas conversion must be done by a qualified service person in accordance with these instructions
and in compliance with all codes and requirements. In Canada, gas conversion shall be carried
out in accordance with the requirements of the Provincial Authorities having jurisdiction and in
accordance with the requirements of the CAN/CGA-B149.1 and CAN/CGA-B149.2 installation code.
• The gas burner in this gas-fired equipment is designed to provide safe complete combustion.
However, if the installation does not permit the burner to receive the proper supply of combustion
air, complete combustion may not occur. The result is incomplete combustion, which produces
carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can cause death.
• Safe operation of indirect-fired gas burning equipment requires a properly operating vent system
which vents all flue products to the outside atmosphere. Failure to provide proper venting will
result in a health hazard that could cause serious personal injury or death.
• On separated combustion heaters, install either the horizontal or vertical combustion air/vent
system illustrated in the heater venting manual, using the concentric adapter supplied. For all
heater installations, always comply with the combustion air requirements in the installation codes
and instructions. Standard Power Vent heaters installed in a confined space must be supplied
with air for combustion as required by Code and in the heater installation manual. Combustion
air at the burner should be regulated only by manufacturer-provided equipment. Never restrict or
otherwise alter the supply of combustion air to any heater. Maintain the vent or vent/combustion
air system in structurally sound and proper operating condition.
• Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause property damage,
injury, or death. Read the installation, operation and maintenance instructions thoroughly before
installing or servicing this equipment.
• The conversion kit is to be selected and installed by a qualified service person in accordance
with these instructions and in compliance with all codes and requirements of authorities having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow instructions could result in death, serious injury, and/or property
damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for this conversion.
