Modine Commercial Workspace Heater - 150K BTU/Intermittent Pilot Ignition/LP/Single Stage w/Aluminized Steel Heat Exchanger & Burner

Features

• Made in the USA
• 83% thermal efficiency, maximizing seasonal efficiency through the use of a collector box and the power exhauster
• A power exhaust can rotate 180° allowing the unit to be vented vertically or horizontally
• A 100% shut-off if the unit does not light, to ensure that unburned gases do not build up in the unit
• An intermittent pilot-ignition system with continuous retry to keep the unit from locking and needing to be reset if the unit does not light on the first try
• All PDP/BDP units can be field-converted from natural gas to propane if desired
• A safety pressure-switch monitors the vent pipe to assure flue gases leave the building and do not back up in the space
• Designed to utilize the smallest-diameter vent pipe possible
• “Wing” screws so that the bottom pan can be dropped without a screwdriver or nut driver
• A level hanging mechanism for easy field adjustments after adding accessories that may change the unit’s center of gravity
• Draws combustion air from inside the workspace
• 5" vent connection
  
• Liquid Propane
  
• 150,000 BTU
  
• Intermittent Pilot Ignition
  
• Single stage - on/off operation
  
• Aluminized steel heat exchanger & burner

Q: What makes the aluminized steel heat exchanger and burner beneficial?
A: The aluminized steel construction offers superior corrosion resistance and high heat conductivity, ensuring long-term performance and efficient heating.

Q: What size space is this heater suitable for?
A: With 150,000 BTUs, this model is perfect for heating medium to large commercial spaces such as warehouses, workshops, and garages, typically up to 2,000 sq. ft.

Q: Is this heater energy-efficient?
A: Yes, the intermittent pilot ignition system helps reduce fuel consumption, making this heater an energy-efficient choice for commercial heating needs.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean Burners & Heat Exchanger – Regularly clean the burners and aluminized steel heat exchanger to ensure efficient heat transfer and reliable ignition.
• Inspect Gas Lines & Connections – Check for any leaks or wear and ensure all gas connections are secure to prevent potential hazards.
• Clear Air Intake & Exhaust Vents – Make sure the vents are clear of debris to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating.
• Check Intermittent Pilot Ignition System – Ensure the pilot ignition is functioning properly for reliable startup and safe operation.
• Monitor Thermostat Settings – Confirm that the thermostat is calibrated accurately to control the temperature efficiently and save energy.
• Inspect Burner Flame – Check the burner flame periodically to ensure it is steady and burning cleanly for optimal heating.
• Regular Filter Maintenance – Keep filters clean to improve air quality and efficiency, ensuring the heater operates at peak performance.
• Annual Professional Inspection – Schedule an annual inspection to ensure the heater is functioning properly, safely, and efficiently.
