This is about all you can see of the unit when the installation is complete. The install manual photos give plenty of closeup detail in the areas that are hidden from view in these photos.

The heater shown is a standard hot water unit . The box beside the blower moter housing is the "radiator". Hoses from the block, join up a hot in and cool return

OK guys I put the correct photo up so you can call it a gas fired heater now! :wink:

The primer system is quite simple to install. I'll dig up some photos.
