SECTION 3. INSTALLATION

3-3

Heater must be mounted below the highest point in the cooling system. An

expansion tank may be added to the coolant system above the heater if this

is not possible.

MOUNTING THE PROHEAT HEATER IN AN ENCLOSURE

Do not locate the heater in an

airtight enclosure. If the heater is to

be mounted in an enclosure other

than the PROHEAT enclosure,

adequate air flow must be provided

to ensure proper combustion. The

enclosure must also be adequately

ventilated so that the ambient

temperature inside the enclosure

does not exceed 185 °F (85 °C).

The openings must be positioned to prevent moisture dirt and snow from

accumulating in the enclosure. The heater enclosure must be easily

accessed for servicing of the heater.
