Equipment Base

The heater should be mounted on a level, structurally
sound surface. The heater is approved for installation
on a combustible surface but must NEVER be installed
on carpeting. Gas-fueled equipment installed in en-
closed parking garages must be located at least 18 in.
above the floor.
When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recom-
mended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained,
be installed under the appliance. The pan must not re-
strict air flow.
In addition, the heater shall be installed such that the
gas ignition system components are protected from
water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance
operation or service (circulator replacement, control
replacement, etc.).
