Abstract

This Standard applies to newly produced gas-fired outdoor infrared patio heaters (See Part IV, Definitions) hereinafter referred to as heaters or appliances, constructed entirely of new, unused parts and materials. <br>Patio heaters are: <br>a. For use with natural gas; and <br>b. For use with liquefied petroleum (propane) gases. <br>The heaters covered by this Standard are intended for installation in and heating of residential or nonresidential spaces (see Part IV, Definitions). <br>Infrared patio heaters may be suspended overhead, angle mounted overhead, wall mounted, floor mounted, or for tabletop use. <br>Patio heaters intended for tabletop use shall be limited to input ratings of 15,000 Btu/hr (4 396 W) or less. <br>Infrared patio heaters may be: <br>a. For connection to a fixed fuel piping system operating at inlet gas pressures not exceeding &#189; psi (3.5kPa); or <br>b. For connection to an integral self-contained liquefied petroleum (propane) gas supply system, provided the appliance incorporates mounting means for the attachment of a maximum of one cylinder limited to a maximum of 20 lb (9.1 kg) of fuel: <br>1. Operating at a regulated outlet pressure not exceeding 11 in wc (2.74 kPa); or <br>2. Operating at regulated outlet pressures in excess of 11 in wc (2.74 kPa) but not greater than 5 psi (34.5 kPa). <br>If a value for measurement as given in this Standard is followed by an equivalent value in other units, the first stated value is to be regarded as the specification.
