2.2 INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL GARAGES

ecoSchwank and IL Luminous Heaters are suitable for use in commercial garages when installed in
accordance with ANSI/NFPA No. 88B 1985 (latest edition), which states clearances to combustible
construction or material in storage, from heater and vent, must conform to standard NFPA No. 54
(ANSI Z223.1 latest edition), in the U.S.A. and the CSA B149.1 in Canada. "Overhead heaters shall
be installed at least (8) feet above the floor". In addition, they shall be located high enough to main-
tain the minimum distance to combustibles, as shown on the heater rating plate, between the heater
and any vehicles parked below the heater.

2.3 INSTALLATIONS OTHER THAN SPACE HEATING

Use for process applications will void the C.S.A. certification and require governing authority field
certification at the installers / owners responsibility and expense.

2.4 MOUNTING CLEARANCES

ecoSchwank and IL Luminous Heater must be mounted with minimum clearances as shown in sec-
tions 8.3 to 8.5. It should also be located with respect to building construction and equipment so as
to provide sufficient clearance and accessibility for servicing and cleaning of burners and ignition
control.
WARNING:
ecoSchwank and IL Luminous Heaters cannot be installed inside degreasing
plants, nor can they be in an area where chlorine, fluorine or bromine are present.

2.5 HEATER MOUNTING

ecoSchwank and IL Luminous Heaters are approved for both horizontal and angle mounting. When
angle mounting, the short axis may be rotated in either direction to a maximum of 30
the venturi always in the upper position. Improper angle mounting can result in damage to the heater
or unsafe operation.
IMPORTANT:
For either horizontal or angle mounting, the long axis of the heater must be
level. Use only non-combustible mounting hardware.
