clearances

  1. In selecting a location for installation, it is necessary to provide 

adequate accessibility clearances for servicing and proper 

installation.

  2. The FAW-40 can be attached to the wall or recessed into the 

wall up to 9 1/2 inches (24.1cm) in depth. 

Note: Do not place 

combustible header or material on top of unit when 

installed in wall. Maintain 3/4" minimum spacing above 

heater.

 3. The wall in which the furnace is recessed has (0) zero (0mm) 

clearance to the furnace sides. 

  4. When  using  side  discharge  registers,  SOR-1  or  SOK-1,  the 

furnace cannot be recessed into the wall.

  5. Clearance to sidewall or combustible material is 4 inches (10.2cm).

  6. Ceiling clearance is 4 inches (10.2cm).

  7. Floor and rear wall clearance is (0) zero inches (0mm).

 8. Clearance of 18 inches (46cm) is required to adjacent wall or 

combustible material when flush mounted SOR-1, side outlet 

register is used. 

Before Installing consider The Following Venting

  1. A  chimney  for  residential-type  or  low-heat  gas  utilization 

equipment shall extend at least 3 feet (914mm) above the 

highest point where it passes through a roof of a building and at 

least 2 feet (610mm) higher than any portion of building within 

a horizontal distance of 10 feet (3m).

  2. This furnace must not be connected to a chimney flue serving 

a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.

 

3. 

uninsulated Single-Wall Metal Pipe shall not be used outdoors 

in cold climates for venting gas utilization equipment.

 

4.

 Attention! 

This Fan Type Vented Wall Furnace is equipped with 

a vent safety switch. In the event of spillage of flue products 

due to improper venting the vent safety switch will open, which 

results in the main burners to "shut off".

Model No. FAW-40 may be vented as shown in 

Figure 4.

 The vent 

cap termination must be at least 12 feet (3.7m) above the floor and 

must exhaust to the outdoors. Clearance to combustible construc-

tion is held by the fixed spacers at 1 inch (25mm) with B-1 or (B-W) 

vent pipe. Installation must conform to local codes.
