Location of flammable or explosive objects, liquids or vapors close to the
heater may cause fire or explosion and result in property damage, injury
or death. Do not use, store or locate flammable or explosive objects, liq-
uids or vapors in proximity of the heater.

The structure, materials, or items in proximity to, or stored under the
heater will be subjected to radiant heat and could be seriously damaged.
The clearances to combustible material represent the minimum distances
that must be maintained between the outer heater surface and a nearby

surface so that a surface temperature of 90F°(50C°) above ambient is not
exceeded.

It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat toler-
ance which may degrade at lower temperatures are protected to prevent degradation.

It is beyond the scope of these instructions to consider all conditions that may be en-
countered. Consult local authorities such as the Fire Marshall, insurance carrier, or
safety authorities if you are uncertain as to the safety or applicability of the proposed
installation.

Refer to Figure 1 and Table 1 for the certified clearances to combustibles that ap-
ply to the appropriate model input/size
.
