Raised Platform Mounting
WARNING:
To prevent serious personal
injury, make sure the platform is designed to
safely bear the weight of the furnace and allow safe
servicing of furnace components. The platform must be
constructed of non-combustible materials (e.g. steel) and
must be securely anchored to an adjacent wall.
1. Refer to Figure 4D, and follow the
instructions as provided in the diagram.
Floor Mounting
WARNING:
To prevent serious personal
injury, make sure the floor can safely bear the
weight of the furnace.
CAUTION: If you are installing your furnace
in an area with a combustible floor (e.g. over the
top of a parts room or on a mezzanine), you must
construct a non-combustible floor as shown in
Figure 4E. Refer to NFPA-31 or CSA-B-139.

Constructing A Non-Combustible Floor
1. Determine the size of floor you will need to construct:
• Measure the width and length of the cabinet of the furnace.
• Add 12" (minimum) to
all
sides of the cabinet to achieve the total measurement for the
non-combustible floor.
EXAMPLE: The CB-3500 measures 58" long x 35" wide.
58" + 12" + 12" = 82" long
35" + 12" + 12" = 59" wide
2. Refer to Figure 4E. Install two (2) pieces of 5/8" sheet rock on top of the combustible material
(wooden floor, wooden beams, etc.) The sheet rock must be cut to the size of the total
non-combustible floor area.
3. Place a sheet of 24-gauge (minimum) galvanized sheet metal on top of the 5/8" sheet rock;
the sheet metal must cover the sheet rock completely.
4. Place 4" thick (minimum) hollow masonry block, end to end, on top of the 24-gauge sheet metal
to make a solid foundation. Be sure to add center cross blocking to safely and adequately support
the furnace.
