The
Magnum 7500 Corn/Wood Pellet Furnace
may be installed on a combustible floor, with proper
floor protection, or on a masonry hearth. The hearth or non-combustible floor protector must extend a
minimum of (6) six inches in front of and (6) six inches from each side of the ash removal door.
It is recommended that the unit be placed on a non-combustible surface and the adjustable legs adjusted
so that the base of the unit is not touching the floor. This will enable the floor surface to keep dry so that
the furnace base does not rust.
It is a good idea, but not required, that you place the unit up on a (4) inch high raised surface to keep it out
of water, etc that may collect on the floor.
The furnace must be installed with the following minimum clearances to side and back wall combustible
materials.
NOTE:
These are minimum clearances to combustible walls established by the testing lab.
The amount of room needed on the left side of the unit to access the electrical panel is (6) six inches.
When venting straight out the back of the unit, the B clearance is 1”. C clearance is for a vertical vent
install.
It is highly recommended that you have 2 feet clearance around the unit for servicing and maintenance.
Both the left and right sides of the unit have panels that are hinged and will need to be opened periodically
to clean, inspect or replace motors and parts.
If there is not room to have this much clearance you must leave 2-3 feet of clearance on the back of the
unit. If the back panel is taken off, the motors can be accessed and removed.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure that there is ample room to remove the unit if extensive service work needs to
be done. Also there must be adequate room on the side of the furnace to load the fuel into the hopper.
If the room that the furnace is going to be in is small and also closed off, you will need to plan adequate
ventilation to get the radiant heat out of the room. Having a 8 x 12 register in the lower and upper area of
the wall or door will be adequate ventilation.
