OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
For outdoor installation with an exhaust grill, 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.
• Under certain conditions, "heavy rains or unusually high winds", it may be necessary to install an outdoors
vent. In this situation, use Outdoor Vent Kit, P/N 460424, (see below).
• This unit shall not be operated outdoors at temperatures below -20
