Combustible materials such as those noted, and any other combustible materials, must not be placed closer to any base or side of the CGTH-Series heater than the distances noted in the diagrams on the fol- lowing page. If you have any questions about the required safe distances from combustibles, or the associated diagrams, please contact your installer, ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor, or Roberts-Gordon at 716.852.4400 or 1.800.828.7450 during normal business hours which are Monday

For owner safety, a thermostat tag is supplied with the CGTH-Series as a permanent reminder of the importance of maintaining the required safe dis- tances from combustibles. Instructions for installing the tag are located in the Installation, Operation and Service manual. Immediately contact your ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor or Roberts-Gor- don if the tag is missing.

It is important to keep the required safe distances from combustibles at all times. Clearances from vehi- cles parked beneath heaters must be maintained. The thermostat tag (included with the heater) must be posted to identify any possible violation of the clearance distances from the heater in vehicle areas. Maximum allowable stacking height in storage areas should be identified with signs or appropriate mark- ings. See Page 10, Figure 4 and Figure 5 for the required safe distances from combustibles.

The warnings on this page appear on the heater and are also on the thermostat tag to serve as a constant reminder to maintain the required safe distances from combustibles at all times. If you do not have either the label on your heater or the thermostat tag, imme- diately call your installer or Roberts-Gordon for replacement.
