Heater Mounting 

Typically, air heaters are mounted inside a tool compartment with the OEM HVAC System.
However, the heater may be mounted anywhere inside the cabin provided you adhere to the 
following conditions:
• 

Combustion air intake, exhaust and fuel inlet connections must be on outside of the  

 vehicle.
• 

Heater must be mounted on flat surface and provide an air tight seal between heater  

 

and vehicle.

• 

Refer to Figure M1 for permissible mounting orientations.
