 Heating 

System 

2.1  Before You Begin  

Plan the location of the Hurricane

®

 Zephyr Heating System and all 

its  major  components  in  advance  to  ensure  the  chosen  locations 

are  compatible  with  installation  requirements  and  within  the 
technical specifications.  

Consider  the  following  factors  to  help  you  decide  exactly  where 

best to mount the Hurricane

®

 Zephyr Heating System: 

·

 

Heater weight when full  

·

 

Ventilation requirements  

·

 

Exhaust outlet location and maximum acceptable length, 
including all 90-degree bends. Refer to section 3.2. 

·

 

Potential for vibration and jarring 

·

 

Fuel storage location 

·

 

Most efficient plumbing runs  

·

 

Safe and convenient access for maintenance  

·

 

Number and location of interior fans  

·

 

Location  of  other  equipment  to  be  installed  or  connected  to  
Hurricane

®

  Zephyr  including:  control  box,  heat  exchangers, 

overflow tank, batteries, etc.  

Make  sure  you  are  familiar  with  Section  1,  Overview  of  this 
manual.  If  the  system  is  not  installed  according  to  specifications 

and  with  the  correct  equipment,  your  heater  may  not  operate 
properly, safety may be compromised, and your warranty may be 
voided.
