Unit Location - Site Preparation
• Do not locate any gas-fired equipment near corrosive, explosive vapors such as chlorinated or acid
vapors.
• Avoid overhead power lines, or other utility access points to prevent accidental contact or damage.
• Provide clearance around the installation site to safely rig and lift the equipment into its final position
onto adequate supports. Refer to the manufacturer’s estimated weights.
• Consider general service and installation space when locating the unit.
• Locate the unit close to the space it will serve to reduce long and twisted duct runs.
• Do not allow the air intake to face prevailing winds. The airflow switch may trip in high winds.
• Situate the unit above ground or at roof level high enough to prevent precipitation from being drawn
into its inlet.
• The inlet must also be located at least 10 feet away from any exhaust vents.
• The inlet must be in accordance with the applicable building code provisions for ventilation air.
• The unit must have adequate structural support, or the equipment or building could be damaged.
• Do not alter or otherwise restrict combustion or ventilation openings.
IMPORTANT
For gas units, to prevent premature heat exchanger failure, do not locate any gas fired unit in
areas where chlorinated, halogenated, or acid vapors are present in the atmosphere.
