Hearth Requirements

The Radiance Unvented heater must be installed on
rigid flooring. If the appliance is installed on any
combustible surface other than wood flooring, such as
carpet or tile, a metal or wood panel must be installed
to extend the full length and width of the unit. There
are no other hearth or floor protection requirements.

• Do not install this heater in a bathroom or
bedroom.

• Installation of this heater must conform with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

• This heater creates warm air currents. These
currents move heat to wall surfaces next to the
heater. Installing the heater next to vinyl or cloth
wall coverings or operating the heater where
impurities in the air such as tobacco smoke exist,
may discolor walls.

• Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger
insert or other accessory not approved for use
with this heater.
