COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks around your appliance with noncombustible material and wherever cold air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase cavity between studs and under floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above ground level.Ensure that the clearance require- ments for venting are always maintained.

To avoid air intrusion, surround material must be caulked where it meets the black metal facing of the appliance. Only use a noncom- bustible caulking material to seal this area.

Do not place insulation materials within the 1" gas vent system clearance space.
