1.10 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE AND LOCATION OF UNIT
Install this appliance in a clean, dry location with adequate air supply.

Do not locate this appliance in an area where it will be subject to freezing unless precautions are taken. Radiant losses from
the
Advantus are minimal and should not be relied on to keep the appliance room warm.

The appliance should be located close to a floor drain in an area where leakage from the appliance or connections will not result
in damage to the adjacent area or to lower floors in the structure. It is recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately
drained, be installed under the unit. Under no circumstances is the manufacturer to be held responsible for water damage in
connection with this unit, or any of its components.

If the appliance is installed above the level of the buildings radiation system, a low water cut-off device must be installed above
the heat exchanger inlet/outlet connections. Some local codes require the installation of a low water cut-off on all systems.

When placing the appliance be aware that a minimum clearance of 24” must be provided at the front to allow easy access to the
heat exchanger.

The appliance must be installed so that the ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, etc.) during
appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.)

Appliances located in a residential garage or in adjacent spaces that open to the garage and are not part of the living space of
a dwelling unit, must be installed so that all burners and burner ignition devices have a minimum clearance of not less than
18”
(46 cm) above the floor. The appliance must be located or protected so that it is not subject to physical damage by a moving
vehicle.

DO NOT install this appliance in any location where gasoline or flammable vapors are likely to be present.

Appliance must be installed on a level floor. Maintain required clearances from combustible surfaces.

The appliance designed for indoor installation (Indoor Models) must be installed indoors where it is protected from exposure to
wind, rain and weather.

The appliance designed for outdoor installation (Outdoor Models) must be installed outdoors. For outdoor installations, always
consider the use of a shelter such as a garden shed to prevent direct exposure of the appliance to the elements. The additional
protection afforded by the shelter will help to minimize nuisance problems with electrical connections and will allow easier
servicing of the appliance under severe weather conditions.
