INTRODUCTION
Monitor is
an
easy-t~operate vented kerosene
heater. Routine operation features high
BTU
output.
automatic adjustment of
room temperature, low fuel
and power consumption, and choice of automatic or
manual heater operation.
This section provides
all
information necessary to
operate
the
Monitor Heating System. All operation
procedures specified should
be
performed in the
order in which
they
are described.

'The
energy from
the
combustion process
IS
released in the form
of
heat
and
vaporized
water.
Normally. heating systems discharge water from
combustion to the atmosphere without condensing
it.
This
93%
efficiency rating means
that.
assuming
the
water cannot
be
condensed,
93%
of
the heat
produced by the combustion process is recovered.
Assuming the water can
be
condensed, the effi-
ciency is
87%.
NOTE:
Actual effective heatirig area depends upon
numerous
factors
such
as
type
and severii
of climate,
type
of
dwelling construction,
condition of dwelling, and thickness
and
effectiveness of dwelling insulation.
