Avoid locations that are in close proximity to combustible materials (see illustration diagrams and mounting
distances)
Avoid locations that are so low that, it could cause danger for those passing by.
Standard and preferred installation places the gas exit (and vented valve access cover) of the heater on the
RIGHT side. This position places the gas exit and the AC adaptor cord at the REAR of the heater installation.
This method is preferred , not only from a visual standpoint, but allows for slightly less pipe routing, and
creates more pivot adjustability . There are times, however, given a particular gas origination location, where
right side hook up is not practical. The left side installation is still acceptable, and the heater will perform
equally as well. Simply consider that there will be slightly more gas line routing to perform.
Do not mount heater within a close proximity to fire sprinklers (4 ft minimum recommended) to avoid
accidental activation of the sprinklers.
As heater placement is being evaluated, also consider whether the AC adaptor will be used (recommended)
and the DC battery operation becomes a secondary, back up battery source. If so, consider the proximity of
the nearest 110V AC GFI grounded power outlet to the location of the heater. The power cord on the AC
adaptor is 24 In. long and plugs directly into the right side wall of the heater. If there is no AC GFI grounded
outlet near the desired installation site, then one needs to be added by a qualified electrician. An outdoor
extension cord can also be used, on a temporary basis, to bring AC power to the adaptor plug location.
CODE REQUIREMENTS
When an appliance is to be connected to a fixed piping system, the Installation must be in accordance with local codes,
or in the absence of codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z224 (for Canada, CAN/CGA-
B149.1 and -B149.2).
If AC power is being routed for AC/DC Transformer hook-up, then the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 shall apply
(for Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 Part 1 and Part 2 shall apply)
GAS SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
Each Lynx Eave Mount Patio Heater is built specifically to be run either with NG (Natural Gas) or LP (Liquid Propane).
This heater is dedicated to one of these two gas types and it is not easily field convertible. Identify the type of gas that
you will be using, and identify the heater gas type. This can be found on the rating label which has been placed on the
inside of the valve compartment, behind the access cover.
The Gas Inlet Pressure for this heater is as follows:
FUEL W.C. MAX INLET PRESSURE W.C. MIN. INLET PRESSURE PRESSURE AT VALVE
NG 10 IN. 6.0 IN. 5.0 IN.
LP 13 IN 11 IN. 10 IN.
It is important that the inlet gas piping system be size properly for the gas appliance that it serves. Please use the above
chart to for verification of the Gas Inlet Pressure required for this product.
