CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES |
|
| |||||||||||
Due to high surface temperatures, the unit |
| ||||||||||||
should be located out of traffic and away |
| ||||||||||||
from furniture and draperies. Clothing and |
| ||||||||||||
other | flammable | material | should |
| not | be |
| ||||||
placed on or near the heater. When |
| ||||||||||||
positioning | the | unit | always | maintain |
| ||||||||
adequate clearances around air openings into |
| ||||||||||||
the combustion chamber and allow for |
| ||||||||||||
adequate | ventilation. |
| Minimum | clearances |
| ||||||||
to combustibles must be maintained | as |
| |||||||||||
shown in the illustrations on page 14 +15. |
|
| |||||||||||
Note: The rear clearance to combustibles |
| ||||||||||||
will be determined by either the unit’s or the |
| ||||||||||||
vent | pipe’s | minimum | clearance, | depending |
| ||||||||
on whether the installation calls for vertical |
| ||||||||||||
rise within the room or a rear exit, through- |

the gas | control | valve | access | door | on | the | Figure 4: Minimum | ||||||
front | of | the | unit | as | well | as | full access | for | |||||
Combustibles | |||||||||||||
periodic | cleaning | and | servicing. | Also | |||||||||

NOTE: These clearances represent minimum distances in all cases, which, through testing in an independent laboratory to ANSI and CSA standards, will prevent fire or spontaneous combustion. We do not control the combustible materials exposed to heat by this product; therefore, an assessment must be made by the installer to prevent consequential damage of walls and flooring.
