INSTALLATION
Continued
You can locate heater on floor, away from a wall.
An optional floor mounting stand is needed. Pur-
chase the floor mounting stand from your dealer.
See Accessories, page 23.
WARNING: Never install the
heater
• in a bathroom
• in a bedroom (3 & 5 plaque
models)
• in a recreational vehicle
• where curtains, furniture, cloth-
ing, or other flammable objects
are less than 36 inches from the
front, top, or sides of the heater
• as a fireplace insert
• in high traffic areas
• in windy or drafty areas
CAUTION: If you install the
heater in a home garage
• heater pilot and burner must be
at least 18 inches above floor
• locate heater where moving
vehicle will not hit it
CAUTION: This heater creates
warm air currents. These currents
move heat to wall surfaces next to
heater. Installing heater next to
vinyl or cloth wall coverings or
operating heater where impuri-
ties (such as, but not limited to,
tobacco smoke, aromatic candles,
cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene
lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may
discolor walls or cause odors.

IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture to
the air. Although this is beneficial, installing heater
in rooms without enough ventilation air may cause
mildew to form from too much moisture. See Air
for Combustion and Ventilation, page 5. If high hu-
midity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be used
to help lower the water vapor content in the air.
For convenience and efficiency, install heater
• where there is easy access for operation, inspec-
tion, and service
• in coldest part of room
An optional fan kit is available from your dealer.
See Accessories, page 23. If planning to use fan,
locate heater near an electrical outlet.
