1. Pick a location on a wall with a clear space in the room. In
selecting a location for installation, it is necessary to provide
adequate accessibility clearances for servicing and proper
installation. Be sure to locate the unit close enough to a 115
VAC wall receptacle to properly power appliance.
2. When facing the front of the furnace, the minimum clearances
from casing to combustible construction are 0” (0mm) on top,
0” (0mm) on each side, recommend 4” (102mm) on right side
for serving and 0” (0mm) from the floor and 2” (51mm) to rear
wall.
3. The minimum distance from the center of the vent cap to the
nearest outside corner or obstruction is 12” (305mm).
The bottom of the exhaust vent terminal and the air intake shall
be located at least 12” (305mm) above grade and must be vented
outside.
WARNING: The nearest point of the vent cap should be a
minimum horizontal distance of six (6) feet (1.83m) from
any pressure regulator. In case of regulator malfunction,
the six (6) feet (1.83m) distance will reduce the chance of
gas entering the vent cap.
Installation on Rugs and Tile
If this appliance is to be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material, other than wood flooring, the appliance shall
be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the appliance.
The base referred to above does not mean the fire-proof base as
used on wood stoves. The protection is primarily for rugs that may
be extremely thick and light-color tile that can discolor.
Locating Wall Opening
The recommended location for this heater is on an outside wall (the
unit can be located on an inside wall but must not exceed 20’ (6.096m)
in exhaust vent length). Locate wall studs so that wall vent opening
will be located between wall studs. The wall opening required for
venting is a 1 7/8” (48mm) minimum diameter opening.
Refer to Figures 3 to 6 for positioning the heater on wall and for
locating gas line connection and vent opening. Heater can sit on
the floor.
