pipe connectors.
The furnace is not to be installed on a combustible floor.
B. CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
WARM AIR PLENUM AND FIRST 6 FEET OF DUCT
PLENUM AFTER THE FIRST 6 FEET
OIL BURNING UNIT FLUE PIPE
*A floor protection exceeding the unit 8" on sides and 18" in the front, should be used
when installed on a combustible floor.
