HEATER INSPECTION

Before installing the heater, inspect the heater for external damage and missing parts. Check the gaskets around the doors to assure that they are still in place. Also check inside the heater. Report any deficiencies found to your heater dealer and make sure all problems are resolved before installing the heater. See figure 12 for illustration of heater parts.

HEATER INSTALLATION

CAUTION: IF THIS HEATER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. FOR YOUR SAFETY, FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS. CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFI CIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.

CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THIS HEATER TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE. THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK IF TWO APPLIANCES OR HEATERS ARE CONNECTED TO THE SAME FLUE.

CAUTION: THE HEATER MUST BE PLACED ON A LISTED FLOOR PROTECTOR AS NOTED IN THIS MANUAL IF THE FLOOR IS WOOD OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE FLOORING. IF CARPET IS PRESENT, IT MUST BE REMOVED. THE FLOOR PROTECTOR MUST NOT BE PLACED ON CARPET. (SEE FIGURE 5).

CAUTION: MOST WALLS AND CEILINGS CONTAIN WOOD EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE MADE OF SHEETROCK OR PLASTER ON THE OUTSIDE. THESE WALLS AND CEILINGS CAN CATCH FIRE FROM THE HOT HEATER OR CHIMNEY CONNECTOR IF THE HEATER AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR ARE NOT PROP- ERLY INSTALLED.

MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE WALLS AND CEILINGS

Minimum clearances to unprotected combustible walls and ceilings as noted by Figures 1 through 4 must be main- tained. Drapes, curtains, furniture and other combustible materials should be kept much further away from the heater to avoid a fire. If you chose to, you may install the heater and chimney connector closer to combustible surfaces than indicated by Figures 1 through 4 if a clearance reduction system is also installed to protect combustible ceiling and wall near the heater and chimney connector. However, there are limits as to how close the heater and chimney connector can be installed to combustible surfaces protected by a clearance reductions system.

A correctly installed clearance reduction system protects the combustible surfaces well beyond the sides and above the top of the heater and beyond the sides and top of the chimney connector pipe.
