temperature.
Note with an ambient temperature of 70
°
F the surface temperatures at the clearance
distances listed below could reach 160°F Care should be taken with placement of plastic
or vinyl in the proximity of the heater as they tend to distort and soften at these
temperatures.
The
INSTALLER
is responsible to ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance
which may degrade at higher temperatures are protected to prevent degradation.
Installation / Code Requirements
Installation must comply with local building codes and/or, for the USA/National Fuel Gas Code,
ANZI Z 223.1 (NFPA 54) and for Canada, CAN/CGA B149.1 and B149.2, National Gas and
