STOWE Gas-Fired Direct Vent heater

LEARANCE TO OMBUSTIBLES
Due to high surface temperatures, the unit
should be located out of traffic and away
from furniture and draperies. Clothing and
other flammable material should not be
placed on or near the heater. When
positioning the unit always maintain
adequate clearances around air openings into
the combustion chamber and allow for
adequate ventilation. Be sure to consider the
need for access to the gas control valve
access door on the front of the unit as well
as full access for periodic cleaning and
servicing. Also consider the location of the
Optional Blower Fan.
NOTE: These clearances represent
minimum distances in all cases, which,
through testing in an independent laboratory
to ANSI and CSA standards, will prevent
fire or spontaneous combustion. We do not
control the combustible materials exposed to
heat by this product; therefore, an
assessment must be made by the installer to
prevent consequential damage of walls and
flooring.
