Installation (Outdoor)
VENTILATION
OUTDOOR INSTALLATION ONLY
For outdoor installation with built in vent, the heater must be placed in a suitable area on a level, noncombustible
surface. Do not install the heater under an overhang with clearances less than 3 feet from the top of the heater. The
area under an overhang must be open on three sides.
In an outdoor installation it is important to ensure water is diverted from overhanging eves with a
proper gutter/drainage system. The heater must be set on a level foundation for proper drainage.
Maintain minimum clearances as indicated below. Install a minimum of 4 feet below, and 4 feet horizontally from
any opening to a building, see Figure 17.
When locating the heater, consider that high winds can roll over or deflect off adjacent buildings
and walls. Normally, placing the heater at least three feet from any wall will minimize downdraft.
This unit shall not be operated outdoors at temperatures below -20
