HEATER CLEARANCES — General Requirements
INDOOR INSTALLATION (U.S.) OR OUTDOOR SHELTER (CANADA)
The following clearances must be maintained from combustible surfaces:
TOP .............................. 6 in. (15 cm)
EXHAUST SIDE .......... 6 in. (15 cm)
HEADER SIDE ............ 6 in. (15 cm)
DOOR PANELS† ........ 6 in. (15 cm)
Note (†) For service access it is advisable to allow for sufficient clearance
on at least one door panel. The heater is design certified by CSA
International for installation on combustible flooring. For installation on
carpeting, the heater must be mounted on a metal or wood panel that
extends at least three inches (10cm) beyond the base of the heater. If the
heater is installed in a closet or alcove, the entire floor shall be covered by
the panel. On an outdoor shelter installation, the exhaust discharges into a
vent pipe. Orient the heater so that the vent pipe does not interfere with
adjustment of the operating controls. The control panel located on the top
panel can be rotated to any of the three sides of the heater for easy
access. However, the control panel must not be located on the side where
the vent is located.

OUTSIDE VENT COVER REMOVAL

The heater is supplied from the factory with a built-in stackless outside vent for outdoor installation. Remove the outside
vent cover for outdoor shelter installation.
