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 through Friday, 8:15 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., Eastern Time.

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 on Page 31, Section 6.5. Immedi- ately contact your ROBERTS GORDON® indepen- dent distributor or Roberts-Gordon 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 16, Figure 4 and Figure 5 for the required safe distances from combustibles.

Due to high temperature, ensure that the heater area is kept clear of furniture, draperies, clothing or other combustible materials. Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns and clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the heater.
