Air Diverter Installation
Instructions
(Must be ordered separately)
(Appearance of the outlet on heater may
vary from model to model.)
1. Air diverters can be installed in the heater outlet
to provide direction to the heated air as it exits the
heater. Installation options include installing the
diverters in such a way as to broadly distribute the
air in two 45 degree paths or to focus the air fl ow
in one 45 degree direction. See Fig. 1.
2. The air diverters may require hand forming prior
to installation. Make 90 degree bends utilizing the
performations provided. Diverter should then have
the shape shown in Fig. 1.
3. The air diverter's tabs on each half will pop
into the blower outlet between the inside of the
case assembly and the blower housing outlet.
If the notched tabs do not pop into the blower
outlet, loosen (do not remove) the blower outlet
screws. Doing this provides a gap into which you
can insert the tabs. Retighten the screws after
installation.

2. Be sure heater is securely fastened and is hang-
ing level. (Check crosswise and lengthwise.)
3. See Fig. 3 for typical indoor installation. In any
animal confi nement building, consideration must
be given to making sure the heater is located
away from the livestock so that livestock cannot
knock the heater, tear it loose from its mounting,
or damage the heater or its gas supply line in
any way. Make sure you observe and obey
minimum clearance distances to combustible
materials as stated in the specifi cation section of
this owner's manual and on the heater itself.
