MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within required distances, the most desirable and benefi cial location for an
appliance is in the centre 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.
MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES:

Minimum 20" from appliance top to ceiling
