VENTED TYPE DECORATIVE APPLIANCE
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 clearances (see Clearances).
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 installa- tion easier. Figure 2 shows a plan view of a few common locations.
4.Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas con- trol that has been under water.
Flush installations are recommended where living space is limited or at a pre- mium, and since the space required to en- close the appliance would be located be- yond 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
Also, in selecting a location, the following precautions must be observed:
1.Do not connect this appliance to a chimney system used for a solid fuel burning fireplace.
2.Install in an area providing ventilation and adequate combustion air.
3.Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
4.NEVER obstruct the front opening of the appliance or the flow of combus- tion and ventilation air. Keep control compartments accessible.
5.Do not locate in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored. The appliance area must be kept clear and free from these com- bustible materials.
6.A hearth extension is not required with this appliance. If one is installed, it is for aesthetic purposes only and does not have to meet the standard requirements.
7.If the appliance is installed on a sur- face other than wood flooring (such as carpeting, tiles, etc.) a metal or wood panel should be added, extending the full width and depth of the appliance.
