Failure to do so may result in death, serious injury or
property damage.
Combustible material must be located outside the
clearance dimensions listed.
Minimum clearances to combustibles shall be measured from the outer surfaces as shown in the following
diagram. For reduced clearances below the heater, use the Deflector Kit (Part No. 43504010), described in
Section 6.1), and maintain the minimum clearances specified in the notes below. Follow the instructions
