1. Pick a location on a wall with a clear space of 36" (91.4cm)

high by 43" (109cm) wide 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. Unit is supported by a wall bracket secured to the wall.

3. When facing the front of the furnace the minimum clearances

from casing to combustible construction are 10" (254mm) on

top, 3" (76mm) on each side, recommend 18" (457mm) on right

side for servicing and 0" (0mm) from the floor and 0" (0mm)

to rear wall.

4. The black flocked exhaust pipe, contained in DVE-1 Kit or DVE-

2 Kit, has zero (0") inches (0mm) clearance to combustibles.

5. The minimum distance from the center of the vent cap to the

nearest outside corner or obstruction is 12" (305mm).

6. The minimum wall depth is 2" (51mm) and the maximum is

10" (254mm) [or 32"(813mm) using the extended vent terminal

kit accessory]. The use of vent tubes not supplied by the

manufacturer may result in unsatisfactory performance.

The vent terminal of a direct vent appliance, with an input of

50,000 BTU (14.6KW) per hour or less shall be located at least 9"

(229mm) from any opening through which flue gases could enter

a building.
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 distant 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 discolo

r.

Locating Wall Opening (Figures 2, 3 and 4)

The recommended location for this furnace is on an outside wall.

(The unit can be located on an inside wall but must be vented

using the extended vent kit and should not exceed 15' (4.6m) in

exhaust vent length.) Locate wall studs so that wall vent opening

will be located between wall studs. The wall studs can be used for

attachment of wall mounting bracket. The wall opening required

for venting is a 3 1/4" (83mm) minimum diameter opening.
Refer to Figure 2 for positioning the furnace on wall and for locating

gas line connection and vent opening. Furnace can sit on the floor

and should be secured to the wall through the wall bracket secured

to the rear top shroud.
