4.5.3 Hazardous Locations

Where there is the possibility of exposure to combus- tible airborne material or vapor, consult the local Fire Marshal, the Fire Insurance Carrier or other authori- ties for approval of the proposed installation.

4.6 Heater Location

It is the Installer’s Responsibility to choose a suitable mounting location for the heater. The Installer must follow the guidelines below as stated in the Installa- tion Manual. Before using your heater, check the location. If the location does not follow these guide- lines, do not use the heater. Immediately contact your installer.

The heater must meet the minimum mounting height requirement of 7' (2.1 m) above the floor. For aircraft hangars and public garages, the heater must meet the minimum mounting height requirement of 8' (2.4 m) above the floor.

The proposed mounting location allows for the required safe distances from combustibles such as vehicles, wood, gasoline and flammable objects, liq- uids and vapors.

The proposed location of the heater will not restrict motion of passageway doors or windows.

The proposed location will not interfere with opera- tion of the overhead garage door, or allow the door to enter the required safe distances from combusti- bles.

The proposed location will provide the best cover- age of the total area to be heated.

Consideration be given to the types of vehicles that will be parked in the garage (cars, vans, boats, RV's, etc.).

The proposed location will allow for the required safe distances from combustibles with respect to the vehicles parked in the garage.

The proposed location will allow the required utilities (i.e.: gas and electric) and venting to be installed (maximum vent length is 10' [3 m]).

Sufficient clearances will exist to allow for easy access to the service door.

Overhead structural members (rafters, beams, etc.) are accessible for attaching the heater.
