Location/Positioning
WARNING
The oil variant of the heaters must
be installed in accordance with
the current OFTEC regulations for
oil fired products.
Under no circumstances should
any item be placed on or above
any part of the heater, whether it
is being used or not.
All basic criteria must be satisfied
prior to commencing the
installation and commissioning
process.
The heater must be positioned
and installed to comply with all
relevant standards and guidelines.
And should also meet the local
and national fire regulations and
insurance criteria, this is critical
if the heater is to be installed
within a special risk area (e.g.
being; within close proximity to
where petrol engined vehicles are
stored or parked, where cellulose
spraying takes place, where
woodworking machinery is being
operated, etc,).
CAUTION
The heater must not be installed
within an area with unsuitable
conditions, e.g. where the
atmosphere is highly corrosive,
has a high degree of salinity, or
where high wind velocities may
affect burner operation.
Suitable protection should be provided
for the appliance when it is located in
a position where it may be susceptible
to external mechanical damage; for
example, fork lift trucks, overhead
cranes etc.
Indirect heaters must not be located in
hazardous areas, however, it is permissible
for the heater to supply air to such areas
The heater must not be installed within
an environment where there is a high
concentration of chlorides, fluorides, salts,
or other aggressive or volatile chemicals/
compounds. Nor should the heater be
positioned where the burner could be
adversely affected by high winds or
draughts.
The location chosen for the heater must
allow for the fitting of an effective flue
system.
The location must also allow for adequate
clearance for the air supply, return air
circulation, gas supply and electrical
supply, whilst also providing good and
safe working access. The heater must be
installed on a flat and level surface made
from non-combustible material, which is
sufficiently robust to withstand the weight
of the heater and any ancillary equipment.
