Installing the Exhaust System
3.1 Before You Begin
For efficient and safe operation of the Oasis™ Heating Module follow
all recommendations for properly installing the exhaust. Any
deviations from these must be approved in advance by ITR.
Although the heater’s exhaust produces very low carbon monoxide
emissions, caution is still advised:

DANGER
• Do not operate the Oasis™ Heating Module in an enclosed
area unless there is adequate ventilation.
• Isolate the Oasis™ Heating Module in a closed compartment
so that no air from the unit will infiltrate the living areas.
Never place any exhaust parts close to combustible material or
through a combustible wall or ceiling without fireproof protection.
The exhaust can reach high temperatures.
3.2 Mounting Location
If you can’t meet the technical specifications for mounting
the exhaust, don’t use the Oasis™ Heating Module. The unit
may perform poorly or become damaged if not installed
according to specifications.
Recommended Exhaust Outlet Locations
The following is recommended for a coach exhaust outlet location:
• Mount the exhaust outlet outside the coach, not inside the
heater compartment. Otherwise, exhaust fumes could
infiltrate the coach from the Oasis™ Heating Module.
