F/N: LL001 - Clearance Safety Tag 

(Affix adjacent to heater’s thermostat)

Clearances to combustibles must be maintained at 

all times in order to prevent the ignition of 

combustible materials. In locations used for the 

storage  of combustible materials, signs must be 

posted to specify the maximum permissible stacking height to 

maintain the required clearances from the heater to the 

combustibles. Signs must either be posted adjacent to the 

heater’s thermostats or, in the absence of such thermostats, in a 

conspicuous location. Clearances are provided on the heater’s 

safety label and in the heater’s Installation, Operation, and 

Maintenance manual. Product installation and operation must 

comply with applicable standards, codes, and regulations. Post 

this tag adjacent to the heater’s thermostat or controls before 

operating the heater.

- INSTALLER: READ AND POST THIS NOTICE -
