To avoid possible property damage or personal injury, the
roof must have sufficient structural strength to carry the
weight of the unit(s) and snow or water loads as required
by local codes. Consult a structural engineer to determine
the weight capabilities of the roof.
•
The unit may be installed directly on wood floors or on
Class A, Class B, or Class C roof covering material.
•
To avoid possible personal injury, a safe, flat surface for
service personnel should be provided.
•
As indicated on the unit’s data plate, a minimum clearance
of 36” to any combustible material is required on the
access side of the unit. All combustible materials must be
kept out of this area.
•
This 36” clearance must also be maintained to insure
proper combustion air flow. The combustion air intake
must not be blocked for any reason, including blockage by
snow.
•
Adequate clearances from the unit to any adjacent public
walkways, adjacent buildings, building openings or
openable windows must be maintained in accordance with
