Each heater must be installed such that the following “Minimum Clearance to Combustibles’ are 

maintained. Combustible materials include wood, compressed paper, plant fibers, plastic, or other 

materials capable of being ignited and burned. Such materials shall be considered combustible even 

though flame-proofed, fire retardant treated or plastered. Additional clearance may be required for 

glass, painted surfaces, vinyl siding or other materials which may be damaged by radiant or convection 

heat.  •

A minimum clearance of 24 inches above the heater must be maintained to plastics, vinyl 

or any other materials that may be adversely affected by radiant or convection heat. 

 

WARNING: The clearances shown below are applicable to vehicles parked below or in front of 

the heater(s).  They are also applicable to retractable awnings, umbrellas, pergolas, etc. whether 

the heater is ON or OFF.  Do not place any objects whether combustible or non-combustible 

within the mounting clearances specified on the mounting instructions
