LOCATING HEATER

This heater is designed to be mounted on a wall.

WARNING: Maintain the mini-

mum clearances shown in Figure

ances from floor, ceiling, and join-

ing wall.

CAUTION: If you install the

heater in a home garage

• heater pilot and burner must

be at least 18 inches above

floor

ture to the air. Although this is beneficial,

installing heater in rooms without enough

ventilation air may cause mildew to form

from too much moisture. See Air for Com-

bustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.

CAUTION: This heater cre-

ates warm air currents. These

currents move heat to wall sur-

faces next to heater. Installing

heater next to vinyl or cloth wall

coverings or operating heater

where impurities (such as to-

bacco smoke, aromatic candles,

cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene

lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may

discolor walls.

WARNING: Never install the

heater

• in a bathroom

• in a recreational vehicle

• where curtains, furniture,

clothing, or other flammable

objects are less than 36 inches

from the front, top, or sides of

the heater

• as a fireplace insert

• in high traffic areas

• in windy or drafty areas

For convenience and efficiency, install heater
