Determining Product Location

NOTICE
The PRESTIGE Excellence is certified for in-
door, conditioned space installations ONLY.
Before locating the PRESTIGE Excellence check for con-
venient locations to:
• Heating system piping
• Venting
• Gas supply piping
• Electrical service
Ensure the PRESTIGE Excellence location allows the com-
bustion air/vent piping to be routed directly through the
building and terminate properly outside with a mini-
mum amount of length and bends.
Ensure the area chosen for the installation of the PRESTIGE
Excellence is free of any combustible materials, gasoline,
or other flammable liquids.
WARNING
Failure to remove or maintain the area free
of combustible materials, gasoline, or oth-
er flammable liquids or vapors can result in
substantial property damage, serious injury,
or death.
Ensure the PRESTIGE Excellence and its controls are pro-
tected from dripping or spraying water during normal
operation or service.
The PRESTIGE Excellence should be installed in a loca-
tion so that any water leaking from the boiler, piping
connections, or relief valve will not cause damage to
the surrounding area or any lower floors in the struc-
ture.
