To ensure the appliance performs correctly, without rattling, it must be installed on a flat level
support base that allows free movement of the appliance. The joists used to support the appliance
off the ground must be capable of supporting a minimum of 1.5 times the weight of the appliance.
Wheels, located at the rear of the heater, allow the unit to slide in and out of the enclosure for
installation and maintenance.

The main points governing location are flueing and warm air distribution. The
Rinnai Evolve has an integrated zero clearance box that isolates the appliance
from combustible materials. This means it can be installed directly into a decorative
fireplace constructed from materials such as wood or plaster.
