Ruud Guardian System Features…
Flame Arrestor Plate
A specially-designed flame
arrestor prevents ignition of
vapors outside the combustion
chamber.

Superior air filtration prevents the

clogged by lint, dust and oil.
Exclusive Combustion
Shut-off System
Should a spill incident occur, the
Guardian System shuts off the gas
supply and the air supply preventing
a sustained vapor burn in the
combustion chamber.
