Although this decorative gas appliance is designed to operate outdoors safely, rain and other sources of moisture may enter the burner area, which will
cause water to collect inside the base of the unit.
nOte:
The KWB60 requires installation of 4 drains (two per KWB30).
to prevent excessive water collection, the installer should provide a way to drain the water from the base of the unit by building or installing a
water collector before positioning the decorative gas appliance in its location.
