system providing the following conditions are met:
• All state and local codes permit the specific installation.
• All appliances are installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation specifications or if lacking
manufacturers specifications, the appliance in question is installed in a manner commonly recognized as
safe and correct for the application and circumstances.

both appliances when operated simultaneously.
