LOCATION OF FIREBOX

into consideration:

Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork and windows.
See “Clearances/Height Requirements on page 8.
Minimum clearances to combustibles
must be main
-
tained.
•
Location must not be affected by drafts caused by
kitchen exhaust fans, ceiling fans, return air registers
for forced air furnaces / air conditioners, windows or
doors.
•
Installation must provide adequate ventilation and com-
bustion air.
•
Location should be out of high traffic or windy or drafty
areas.
•
DO NOT INSTALL WHERE CURTAINS, FURNITURE,
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE OBJECTS ARE
LESS THAN 42" FROM FRONT OF HEATER.
•
Never obstruct the front opening of the vent-free firebox
or restrict the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•
Minimize modifications to existing construction. Refer

Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other
flammable liquids may be stored. The vent-free firebox
must be kept clear and free from these combustible
materials.
