ATTENTION:
• Installations and applications of L.B.White heaters must meet all applicable local , regional, and national codes. Included
are L.P. gas, natural gas, and electrical and safety codes. Your local fuel gas supplier, a local licensed electrician, local
fi
re
department, or similar government agency can assist you.
• Mounting the heater will require the assistance of others.
• The heater must be securely mounted to the wall. The wall must be able to support the combined weight of the heater and
the outdoor mounting kit. Consider the
fi
nal installed weight to be:
Guardian 60: 83 lbs. (37.6 kg)
Guardian 100: 98 lbs. (44.4 kg)
• Appropriate mounting hardware is supplied in the outdoor mounting kit for fastening the main supports to standard wall
materials with 16 in. (41 cm) or 24 in. (61 cm) center to centers.
-- If the wall studs are further apart than the referenced centers or if the studs and walls
are made of other materials, the appropriate mounting hardware and materials must be
obtained locally to ensure the heater is securely and safely mounted.
• Do not mount the heater and its kit on the side of the building which has exhaust fans.
• The heater must be mounted a minimum of two feet (0.61 m) above the ground and at a location so as not to interfere with
water, gas, or electrical lines.
• The heater must be mounted so its air inlets are not obstructed, and to withstand the effects of adverse weather conditions.
• The heater’s duct must be positioned to maintain a minimum of 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) air gap on all sides between the duct and
the nearest combustible material.
-- Any material within 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) of the duct or in contact with the duct must be made of non-combustible material
or protected by non-combustible insulation.
• Regardless of wall construction, ensure the minimum clearance from heater to wall is 6 in. (15.2 cm) minimum.
(This will still accomodate wall thickness up to 14 in. (35.5 cm.)
A. Getting ready

fl
at area to assist in identi
fi
cation and assembly.
