The installation must conform to local building codes or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54 or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code CSA B149.1. Heaters shall be
installed by a licensed contractor or licensed installer. Clearances to combustibles as outlined in this manual
should always be observed. In areas used for storage of combustible materials where they may be stacked
below the heater, NFPA54 requires that the installer must post signs that will “specify the maximum permissible
stacking height to maintain the required clearances from the heater to combustibles.”
Every heater shall be located with respect to building construction and other equipment so as to permit access
to the heater. Each installer shall use quality installation practices when locating the heater and must give
consideration to clearances to combustible materials, vehicles parked below, lights, overhead doors, storage
areas with stacked materials, sprinkler heads, gas and electrical lines and any other possible obstructions or
hazards. Consideration also must be given to service accessibility.

but the Emitter Guard Kit (Part #43485000) may be used for decorative purposes if desired. For installation of
these kits, refer to the separate installation instructions packaged in each kit.
The heater, when installed in aircraft hangars and public garages, must be installed in accordance with
ANSI/NFPA 409-latest edition (Standard for Aircraft Hangars), ANSI/NFPA 88a-latest edition (Standard for
Parking Structures), and ANSI/NFPA 88b-latest edition (Standard for Repair Garages) with the following
clearances:
a.
At least 10 feet above the upper surfaces of wings or engine enclosures of the highest aircraft that may be
housed in the hangar and at least 8 feet above the floor in shops, offices, and other sections of hangars
communicating with aircraft storage or service areas.
b.
At least 8 feet above the floor in public garages. ▲

(FOR CANADA ONLY)
a.
Installation of this appliance is to be in accordance with latest edition of CSA B149.1 (Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code).
b.
For installation in public garages or aircraft hangars, the minimum clearances from the bottom of the
infrared heater to the upper surface of the highest aircraft or vehicle shall be 50 percent greater than the
certified minimum clearance, but the clearance shall not be less than 8 feet.
Although these heaters may be used in many applications other than space heating (e.g., process heating),
Space-Ray will not recognize the warranty for any use other than space heating.
This heater is for Indoor Installation and Covered Patio Installation only and can be used in either Vented or
Unvented mode. The term Unvented actually means Indirect Vented. While the products of combustion are
expelled into the building, national codes require ventilation in the building to dilute these products of
combustion. This ventilation may be provided by gravity or mechanical means.

High Altitude:
Appliances are supplied as standard for altitudes of O to 2,000 feet (0-610 m). High-altitude ratings are obtained
by a change in the orifice size. When ordered for high altitude installations, burners are supplied by the factory
ready for high altitude installation. Check the nameplate for altitude before proceeding with the installation. In
Canada the adjustment for altitude is made in accordance with Standard CGA 2.17, Gas-Fired Appliances for Use
at High Altitudes.
