 WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

 

17. Ziegler  &  Brown  highly  recommends  the  use  of  smoke  detectors  with  any  heating 

product, including this unit. If possible, install a smoke detector in a hallway adjacent to 

the room (to reduce the possibility of occasional false activation from the heat produced 

by the heater). If your local council codes require the smoke detectors to be in the same 

room,  you  must  follow  those  requirements.  Check  with  your  local  authority  for 

requirements in your area. 

18. Recommended  Flue  Configuration:  Any  configuration  listed  in  this  manual  has  been 

approved  for  installation  clearances  according  to  AS  2918.  For  best  performance  we 

recommend a vertical flue configuration. 

19. Type  and  Size  of  Flue:  We  recommend  using  a  Maxiheat  pellet  heater  flue  system. 

Secure all flue joint connections with 3 screws. Seal the exhaust vent joint connections 

with high temperature silicone sealant.   

20. Maintain proper ventilation. It is important that adequate oxygen be supplied to the fire 

for  the  combustion  process.  Modern  houses  are  often  so  well  insulated  that  it  may 

become  necessary  to  open  a  window  slightly  or  install  an  outside  air  vent  to  provide 

sufficient combustion air. 

21. HEATER WILL BE HOT WHILE IN OPERATION.    KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND 

FURNITURE  AWAY  FROM  THE  HEATER.  CONTACT  MAY  CAUSE  SKIN  BURNS.   

YOUNG  CHILDREN  SHOULD  BE  SUPERVISED  WHEN  THEY  ARE  IN  THE  SAME 

ROOM AS THE HEATER. 

22. DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS 

UNIT. 

23. DO  NOT  CONNECT  THIS  UNIT  TO  A  CHIMNEY  FLUE  SERVING  ANOTHER 

APPLIANCE OR ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM. 

 

 

SINCE THE HEATER SUPPLIER HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE INSTALLATION OF 

YOUR  HEATER,  THE  HEATER  SUPPLIER  GRANTS  NO  WARRANTY  IMPLIED  OR 

STATED  FOR  THE  INSTALLATION  OR  MAINTENANCE  OF  YOUR  HEATER. 

THEREFORE,  THE  HEATER  SUPPLIER  ASSUMES  NO  RESPONSIBILITY  FOR  ANY 

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE(S).
