1.  Pick a location on a wall with a clear space of 36" (91.4cm) 

high by 43" (109cm) wide in the room. In selecting a location 

for installation, it is necessary to provide adequate accessibility 

clearances for servicing and proper installation.  Be sure to locate 

the unit close enough to a 115 VAC wall receptacle to properly 

power appliance.

2.  Unit is supported by a wall bracket secured to the wall.

3.  When facing the front of the furnace the minimum clearances 

from casing to combustible construction are 10" (254mm) on 

top, 3" (76mm) on each side, recommend 18" (457mm) on right 

side for servicing and 0" (0mm) from the floor  and 0" (0mm) 

to rear wall.

4.  The black flocked exhaust pipe, contained in DVE-1 Kit or DVE-

2 Kit, has zero (0") inches (0mm) clearance to combustibles.

5.  The minimum distance from the center of the vent cap to the 

nearest outside corner or obstruction is 12" (305mm).

6.  The minimum wall depth is 2" (51mm) and the maximum is 

10" (254mm) [or 32"(813mm) using the extended vent terminal 

kit  accessory].    The  use  of  vent  tubes  not  supplied  by  the 

manufacturer may result in unsatisfactory performance.

The  vent  terminal  of  a  direct  vent  appliance,  with  an  input  of 

50,000 BTU (14.6KW) per hour or less shall be located at least 9" 

(229mm) from any opening through which flue gases could enter 

a building.
The bottom of the exhaust vent terminal and the air intake shall 

be located at least 12" (305mm) above grade and must be vented 

outside.

WARNING:  The nearest point of the vent cap should be 

a minimum horizontal distant of six (6) feet (1.83m) from 

any pressure regulator.  In case of regulator malfunction, 

the six (6) feet (1.83m) distance will reduce the chance of 

gas entering the vent cap. 

Installation on Rugs and Tile

If this appliance is to be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other 

combustible material, other than wood flooring, the appliance shall 

be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and 

depth of the appliance.
The base referred to above does not mean the fire-proof base as 

used on wood stoves. The protection is primarily for rugs that may 

be extremely thick and light-color tile that can discolo

r.

Locating Wall Opening (Figures 2, 3 and 4)

The recommended location for this furnace is on an outside wall.  

(The unit can be located on an inside wall but must be vented 

using the extended vent kit and should not exceed 15' (4.6m) in 

exhaust vent length.)  Locate wall studs so that wall vent opening 

will be located between wall studs.  The wall studs can be used for 

attachment of wall mounting bracket.  The wall opening required 

for venting is a 3 1/4" (83mm) minimum diameter opening.
Refer to Figure 2 for positioning the furnace on wall and for locating 

gas line connection and vent opening.  Furnace can sit on the floor 

and should be secured to the wall through the wall bracket secured 

to the rear top shroud.
