45 000 BtuH Gas Unit Heater
The Dayton 2RYU8 is a new commercial gas unit heater rated at 45 000 BtuH input and 36 450 BtuH output. It operates on natural gas or liquid propane with a field-convertible combustion system. A propeller fan delivers 550 cfm of airflow for spaces requiring substantial warm-air distribution.
Field-Convertible NG/LP Gas Type
The single specification that determines fit is the dual-fuel capability: the heater accepts natural gas or liquid propane and can be converted in the field. A 1/2 in gas connection and 4 in flue diameter are fixed requirements. Voltage is 115 V AC at 60 Hz drawing 3.2 A full-load amps.
Mounting and Clearance Considerations
Adjustable on-centre mounting brackets simplify alignment on walls or ceilings. The unit measures 30 in wide, 25 7/8 in deep and 12 3/8 in high, with matching discharge dimensions. Minimum installation height is 8 ft and the air temperature rise is 60 °F. Direct-spark ignition eliminates a standing pilot, but installers must verify gas-pressure settings and venting layout before commissioning. Buyers needing higher output or a different fuel type should look elsewhere.
