Safety Signs and Labels
It is important to provide warnings to alert individuals to potential hazards and safety actions. CODE requires you to
post a sign “specifying the maximum permissible stacking height to maintain the required clearances from the heater
to the combustibles” near the heater’s thermostat or in absence of such thermostat, in a conspicuous location.
Safety warning labels must be maintained on the infra-red heater. Illustrations of the safety labels, and their locations,
are pictured below. In locations used for storage, signs must be posted to specify the maximum permissible stacking
height to maintain the required clearances from the heater to combustibles. Signs must either be posted adjacent to
the heater thermostats or in absence of such thermostats, in a prominent location.
