Figure 3.2 shows a typical framing (using 2 x 4 lumber) of the heater, assuming combustible materials are used. All re- quired clearances to combustibles around the heater must be adhered to.

Fronts are available 24 in. (610 mm), 28 in. (711 mm) and 32 in. (813 mm) high for the 26 in. heater and 21 in. (533 mm) and 28 in. (711 mm) high for the 23 in. heater.
