OUTDOOR HEATERS

These heaters are design certified for outdoor installation, when equipped with the approved tops designated for outdoor use.

Heaters must not be installed under an overhang of less than three (3) feet from the top of the heater. Three

(3)sides must be open in the area under the overhang. Roof water drainage must be diverted away from the heaters installed under overhangs with the use of gutters.

WARNING: The heater shall not be located in an area where water sprinklers, or other devices, may cause water to spray through the cabinet louvers and into the heater. This could cause heavy internal rusting or damage some electrical components, and this would void the warranty.

The point from where the flue products exit the heater must be a minimum of four (4) feet below, four (4) feet horizontally from or one (1) foot above any door, window or gravity inlet to a building. The top surface of the heater shall be at least three (3) feet above any forced air inlet, or intake ducts located within ten (10) feet horizontally.
