ignition control board emits radio noise as the sparking process
is underway. The level of energy may be sufficient to disturb
a logic circuit in a microprocessor controlled thermostat. It is
recommended that an isolation relay be used when connecting
the unit heaters to a microprocessor controlled thermostat.
Install the thermostat according to instructions provided. Select
circuit protection and wire size according to the unit rating plate.
Install a separate disconnect switch (protected by either fuse or
circuit breaker) near the unit so that power can be turned off
for servicing. Connect wiring through knockout on the junction
box located on the side of the unit heater. Refer to heater wiring
diagram for connection information. Use 18 gauge wire or larger
for thermostat connections.
electrically ground unit in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, in accordance with the current National
electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA No. 70) in the U.S.A., and in Canada
with the current Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 CSA C22.1.
NOTE Un-insulated ground wires must be wrapped in electrical
tape to avoid damage to the electrical system.
Make line voltage connections as shown in figure 7. Connect field
wiring as shown on wiring diagram on unit. Also refer to typical
diagram in this manual. An additional thermostat wire must be
run to terminal “G” on heater when continuous blower is desired.
gAS CONNECTION
When connecting gas supply, the length of the run from the
meter must be considered in determining the pipe size to avoid
excessive pressure drop. A line pressure of 7” w.c. (178mm w.c.)
for natural gas should be maintained when sizing piping. A line
pressure of 13” w.c. (330mm w.c.) should be maintained for
liquefied petroleum (lP) gas. For correct sizing of piping, refer to
the (American) National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or (Canada)
CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code or consult
the utility having jurisdiction.
A drip leg should be installed in the vertical pipe run to the unit.
In some localities, codes may require that a manual main shutoff
valve and union (furnished by installer) be installed external to the
unit. Union must be of the ground joint type. A drip leg should be
readily accessible to permit cleaning and emptying. See
figure 8.
NOTE If a switch box is mounted over electrical knockouts on
back of unit, leave a minimum of 4” (102mm) clearance between
switch box and drip leg.
A 1/8” NPT plugged tap shall be installed immediately upstream
of the gas supply connection to the heater.
NOTE Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping must be
resistant to the actions of liquefied petroleum gases.
LEAK CHECK
After gas piping is completed, carefully check all piping
connections, (field and factory), for gas leaks. Use a soap solution
or other preferred means.
Due to the natural heating cycles and vibration of this unit it is
recommended, as part of its annual maintenance, to check these
connections for proper tightness and leak-check with a soap
solution or other preferred means prior to putting into service.
CAUTION Do NoT use matches, candles, flame or other sources
of ignition to check for gas leaks.
IMpORTANT The heater and its individual shut off valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2
psig (3.45kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual manual gas shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45kPa). See
figure 9.
NOTE In case emergency shutdown is required, shut down main
gas valve and disconnect main power to unit. These devices
should be properly labeled by the installer.

BEFORE LIgHTINg smell all around the appliance area for gas.
Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier
than air and will settle on the floor.
Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob. Never
use tools. If the knob will not push in or turn by hand, do not try
to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
MHU45/75 and HSU45/75 unit heaters are equipped with an
automatic spark ignition system. There is no pilot. In case of a
safety shutdown, move thermostat switch to oFF, then return the
thermostat switch to HeAT position.
Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail to shut off, shut
off the manual gas valve to the appliance before shutting off the
electrical supply.

1. STOp! Read the safety information at the beginning of this
section.
2. Set the thermostat to lowest setting.
3. Turn off all electrical power to appliance.
4. This appliance is equipped with an ignition device which
automatically lights burner. DO NOT attempt to light the
burners manually.
5. Depress knob on gas valve; knob will snap to oFF.
(See Figure 10)
6. Wait five minutes to clear out any gas. If you then smell gas,
STOp! Immediately call your gas supplier form a neighbor’s
phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions. If you do not
smell gas go to next step.
7. Turn knob on gas valve 90 o counterclockwise to oN.
8. Turn on electrical power to unit.
9. Set the thermostat to desired setting.
10. The combustion air blower will start. The burners will light
within 40 seconds.
11. If unit does not light first time (gas line not fully purged) it
will attempt up to two more ignitions before locking out.
