Choosing Installation Site

Locate the appliance in an area where leakage from the
unit or connections will not result in damage to the area
adjacent to the appliance or to the lower floors of the
structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is
recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately
drained, be installed under the appliance. The pan must
not restrict combustion air flow.
Danger: Install the exhaust vent
(terminal) so that there are no obstacles
around the termination and so that
exhaust can't accumulate. Do not
enclose the termination with corrugated
metal or other materials.
Danger: Model 660 EFO is for outdoor
installation only. Never install it indoors.
Do not enclose the termination with
corrugated metal or other materials.
This will cause carbon monoxide
poisoning and a potential fire hazard.
Warning: Avoid places where fires are
common, such as those where gaso-
line, benzene and adhesives are han-
dled, or places in which corrosive gases
(ammonia, chlorine, sulfur, ethylene
compounds, acids) are present. Using
the incorrect voltage may result in fire or
cracking.
Warning: Avoid installation in places
where dust or debris will accumulate.
Dust may block the air-supply opening,
causing the performance of the device
fan to drop and incomplete combustion
to occur as a result.
Warning: Avoid installation in places
where special chemical agents (e.g.,
hair spray or spray detergent) are used.
Ignition failures and malfunction may
occur as a result.
