| The 34" Patio Plus reflector is the result of extensive testing and research. It's a lot more than just a decorative cover. It has been designed and tested to achieve the highly efficient reflector we use today. The Patio Plus reflector concentrates the radiant energy from the high output infrared burner, into the 20 ft. circle of heat. Stray radiant energy is redirected to the inside of the circle by increasing the intensity of the heating footprint. It has been performance tested by the highly respected Food Service Technology Center in San Mateo, California. Click here to read their testing and findings. | ||

| Clearances & Safe Mounting Practices | |||||||||||||
 Each heater must be installed so that the following “minimum clearances to combustibles” are maintained. Combustible materials are considered to be wood, compressed paper, plant fibres, or other materials capable of being ignited and burned. Such materials shall be considered combustible even though flame-proofed, fire retardant treated or plastered. Additional clearances may be required for glass, painted surfaces, plastics, vinyl and other materials which may be damaged or melted by radiant or convection heat. A minimum clearance of 24 inches (above the heater) must be maintained to plastics, vinyl or any other materials that may be adversely affected by radiant or convection heat. |
|||||||||||||
| Infrared Heat | |||||||||||||
| Patio Plus heaters are effective in heating outdoor spaces because they utilize infrared or radiant heat. Infrared energy is the same type of warmth we get from the sun. Infrared energy warms people and objects without heating the intervening air. Unlike the sun, Patio Plus heaters do not produce Ultraviolet (UV) rays that can be harmful. Infrared energy travels by line-of-sight so the designer must be aware that doors, panels or windows may obstruct the infrared energy from reaching the desired location. Overlapping infrared patterns from numerous heaters may be used effectively to provide even heat distribution. Where multiple heaters are used with the remote switching option it is suggested that they be switched independently, so as to allow for flexibility in heating larger areas as the space becomes occupied by more people. A timer is a good method to ensure that all heaters are turned off when the patio is not being used. Because infrared heaters heat people and objects, and thermostats measure air temperature, a thermostat may not be the best method for controlling outdoor heaters. | |||||||||||||
| Enclosed Patios | |||||||||||||
| Enclosed patios must be large enough to meet the clearance to combustibles, and ventilation requirements as provided for in all applicable codes. For very small- enclosed patios, Patio Plus heaters may not be suitable. DANGER: Patio Plus heaters are not vented to the outdoors. Failure to comply with applicable ventilation requirements could cause serious injury of death. |
|||||||||||||
| Patio Design Considerations | |||||||||||||
| Heater placement is critical for effective and efficient patio heating. If heaters are placed too close together, or mounted too low, patrons of the patio may become uncomfortable. If heaters are placed too far apart, or too high, on a breezy or wind-swept patio, the area may never become comfortable. Infrared heaters work best if placed in areas of greatest heat loss, such as the open side of a semi-protected patio. Windy conditions can be a problem when heating any patio. Windbreaks can be extremely effective in increasing comfort levels. The heating requirements of any patio depend greatly on local climatic conditions. It is recommended that you work with a local and experienced supplier and installer who are familiar with the heating requirements of your area. This product could make carbon monoxide. 400 parts per million of CO for one hour in an unvented room will damage the brain and could cause death. |

| Easy Testing Procedure | |||||||||||||
This product must be assembled and tested as shown in these instructions. Any deviation or lack of testing could cause personal or property damage. Have a qualified professional do it for you. Patio Plus infra red heaters are available for both L.P. and Natural Gas and are approved for indoor & outdoor applications. This appliance must only be used with the fuel for which it was originally labeled. Do not convert this heater to an alternate fuel without first consulting the manufacturer. For indoor use, consult all local applicable codes for unvented appliances before use. These instructions apply to the following Patio Plus models:
Maximum Inlet supply gas pressure: ˝ P.S.I. (14” w.c.) Required manifold pressure: L.P. 10.5” w.c. N.G. 3.5” w.c. Maximum Input 50,000BTU L.P. & 50,000BTU Natural Gas Maximum turn down pressure: 6.4” L.P. & 1.5” Natural Gas |
|||||||||||||
| Choosing a Safe Location | |||||||||||||
| Heaters must be installed on a secure and level surface. Patio Plus heaters may be installed on a combustible surface. If the heater is installed near a combustible wall or under a combustible ceiling, the minimum clearances to combustibles described in the drawing on page 2 must be adhered to. The installation must adhere to all local and applicable codes. In the absence of local codes, it must adhere to current CAN/B149 in Canada or ANSI Z223.1 in the United States | |||||||||||||
| WARNING (Care & Use of L.P. cylinders). L.P. gas cannot be used on units designed for natural gas. Natural gas cannot be used on units designed for L.P. | |||||||||||||
If your heater is designed for use with an L.P. cylinder, the cylinder must meet the following requirements: cylinder weight is 20 lb. (9.07 kg): cylinder has outside diameter of 12-1/8 in. (30.8 cm), length of 18 in. (45.7 cm) and is constructed and marked to specifications of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or Canadian Transport Commission (C.T.C.). Cylinder has shut-off valve outlet which is a No. 510, female P.O.L.; a safety relief device which has direct communication with vapor space of cylinder. Supply system is arranged for vapor withdrawal. Cylinder includes collar to protect valve. If your heater is to be used on L.P. gas, special precautions should be observed when handling L.P. cylinders. Remember that this is gas and under pressure, which must be handled with care. Ask your L.P. gas dealer to show you the necessary safety precautions and check local codes for use, storage, and transport regulations. Among the recommended practices are:
Always turn off the gas supply to the heater at the cylinder as soon as you are finished using the heater. The L.P. cylinder must be equipped with the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the heater. The pressure regulator is set at the factory for maximum efficiency. Visually inspect the entire length of the hose for damage before use. This requires opening the door of the L.P. cylinder enclosure. If damage or excess wear is found, replace the regulator assembly immediately. If needed, order only factory original parts. Do not attempt to substitute parts. Follow the steps in your assembly instructions book for removing and reinstalling the regulator assembly. Always store L.P. cylinders in a well-ventilated space. If you intend to store the heater indoors, disconnect the L.P. cylinder and store it outside. Disconnected cylinders must have a threaded valve plug tightly installed. When the L.P. cylinder is not disconnected from the heater, the heater and cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space, out of reach of children. If you have not purchased an Auto-Stop Fill Tank, never allow your cylinder to be filled above the liquid level stop fill gauge. The P.O.L. service valve and liquid level gauge are designed to be closed leak-tight by hand. If wrenches are necessary to stop a leak, the valve probably needs repair or replacement. Check all cylinder and line connections periodically to be sure they are tight. Make certain your cylinder is properly fastened in place with the safety strap. |

| Test Firing Heater Leak test all gas connections with soapy water. Soap bubbles indicate gas leakage. Do not use an open flame to test for leaks. Test fire the heater following the lighting instructions on the heater post. To Light Pilot Push and turn the control knob to “PILOT” position. Continue to hold the knob in, and purge air from the system. When air is purged, while depressing the control knob, depress the “spark igniter” button. View the pilot flame through the observation or match lighting hole. Hold the control knob depressed for 45 seconds after lighting. If the pilot does not light, try again. It might need two or three trials to light the pilot burner. Note: for all models allow the required time to safely purge air through pilot after connecting to new gas tank or other system. After pilot is lit and it is mistakenly turned off, the knob will be in an immovable position. Wait 90 seconds and the thermocouple will cool and knob will be released to re-light pilot. To Light Main Burner After pilot is lit, wait 30 seconds and turn the control knob to the “ON” position. Warning Smoke may appear around the emitter grid during the initial firing. This will only happen on the first light up. The oils used in manufacturing are burning off. To Turn Heater and Pilot Off Turn control knob to the “PILOT” position. Depress slightly and turn to the “OFF” position. Wait 5 minutes after shut down before relighting heater. For propane models, turn the propane supply off when heaters are not in use. R-Remote for 24 Volt models (remote switching ON/OFF) Light pilot as above. Turn control knob to the “ON” position. Supply switched 24 Volt power to the 24 V terminal on the heater. Switching 24 Volt power supply ON and OFF will turn main burner ON and OFF. |
