SELECtInG LOCatIOn
To determine the safest and most efficient
location for your appliance, you must take into
consideration the following guidelines:
1. The location must allow for proper clear-
ances (see clearance information on
page 10).
2. Consider a location where heat output
would not be affected by drafts, air con-
ditioning ducts, windows or doors.
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters will make installation easier.
Figure 1 shows a plan view of a few com-
mon locations.
Flush installations are recommended where
living space is limited or at a premium and
since the space required to enclose the ap-
pliance would be located beyond an outside
wall, this would also reduce the cutting of
joists, roof rafters and such. Check local
codes for any restrictions.
Projected installations can extend any
distance into the room. A projection may
be ideal for a new addition on an existing,
finished wall.
Corner installations make use of space
that may not normally be used and provides
a wider and more efficient range for radiant
heat transference.
Internal wall installations provide a discreet
option for room separation and can also be
ideal as an addition to an existing wall.
