Customer Q&A with Product Specialists

Alan J. from Maine asked:
Can this heater be vented horizontally without extending above the roofline?
Can this heater be vented horizontally without extending above the roofline?
No, this unit cannot be vented purely horizontally without extending above the roofline. The RH50CB is a natural vent (B-vent style) propane heater, and its installation manual requires the vent to terminate above the roofline. The venting must include a vertical rise at least twice the length of any horizontal run and extend at least 2 feet above the roof. Additionally, it must be at least 2 feet above any object or nearby building within a 10-foot radius. You can find detailed venting requirements in the installation manual.

Bob R. from Fort Atkinson Wisconsin asked:
I need a blueprint for my floor model natural gas furnace that came disassembled. Please show how to connect the gas line from outside to the pilot and then to the burner.
I need a blueprint for my floor model natural gas furnace that came disassembled. Please show how to connect the gas line from outside to the pilot and then to the burner.
Connecting the gas supply line to the pilot and main burner is a job for a licensed or NFI certified gas professional, as it involves gas piping code compliance and carbon monoxide safety. We are unable to provide DIY hookup instructions for this step. The full Empire RH-50/RH-65 Series Installation, Operation and Parts Manual includes a complete gas train diagram, parts breakdown, and installation instructions for both the RH-50CB and RH-65CB models in natural gas and propane. You can find a certified installer near you through NFI Certified at https://www.nficertified.org/public/.

Brian from Montana asked:
Will this heater function at an altitude of 6000 feet?
Will this heater function at an altitude of 6000 feet?
Yes, this heater can function at an altitude of 6000 feet with proper adjustments. According to the Empire installation manual for the RH50CB, at elevations above 2,000 feet, the input rating must be reduced by 4 percent for every 1,000 feet above sea level. This adjustment must be performed by a qualified installer in accordance with local codes and the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1) or CSA B149.1. You can review the full installation manual for complete high-altitude specifications. We recommend having a qualified gas technician verify and perform the correct high-altitude adjustment for your elevation; you can find a certified professional near you through NFI Certified Pros.

Heats Entire Office

This unit is extremely easy to install! It took around a half hour to do so, and it is able to easily heat my office (which is approximately 1200 square feet.)

Empire Is Quality

I should say at the outset that I have had many very positive experiences with empire products. I am quite pleased to report that this item is definitely no exception. I have installed it in a large apartment, and every time it has been fired up to keep the facility at a comfortable temperature, it has managed to do so with the greatest of ease. I chose this item because the apartment itself has an unusual layout that makes it impossible to install a standard unit. Thankfully, this has managed to do a good job and my tenant is quite happy with the results.
