The installation must conform with local codes or, in
absence of local codes, the National Gas and Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 in Canada, or the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 in the United
States. Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in
accordance with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH
Series, for gas equipped mobile homes, in Canada or
ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States.
As long as the required clearance to combustibles is
maintained, the most desirable and benefi cial location for an appliance is in the center of a building, thereby
allowing the most effi cient use of the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the traffi c fl ow in the
room where the appliance is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location
where the vent will pass through the house without cutting a fl oor or roof joist.
If the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood
fl ooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.
Some appliances have optional fans or blowers. If an optional fan or blower is installed, the junction box must
be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian
Electrical Code in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical code in the United States.
The blower power cord must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle. The grounding prong must not
be removed from the cord plug.
