Empire Industries HRW10MN Vent-free Infrared Heater 10000 Btu/h

Product Description

The EMPIRE INDUSTRIES HRW10MN is a vent-free infrared space heater designed for natural gas operation with manual control. Running at 10,000 BTU/h, this unit uses infrared radiant heat to warm occupied spaces without requiring a flue or venting connection to the outside. It is part of the Hearthrite product line and is installed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified gas fitters in residential and light-commercial applications where supplemental or zone heating is needed.

This heater is suited for residential living spaces, workshops, cabins, and similar enclosed areas where a vent-free heating solution is practical. The manual control design provides straightforward operation without electronic ignition or thermostat wiring requirements. Natural gas supply must be available at the installation site. Vent-free heaters of this type are commonly used as supplemental heat sources in rooms where extending ductwork or installing a flue is not feasible.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed gas technician in accordance with local codes and the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54). Shut off the gas supply at the main valve before making any connections. Vent-free heaters require adequate room volume and air supply per manufacturer and code requirements — always verify that the installation space meets minimum cubic footage requirements before commissioning. Do not operate the heater in tightly sealed or unventilated spaces without confirming compliance with local vent-free appliance regulations.
