feet (2.4m) above the fl oor in shops, offi ces and other
sections of the hangar where aircraft are not stored or
housed. Refer to current ANSI/NFPA No. 409, Aircraft
Hangars. In Canada, installation is suitable in aircraft
hangars when acceptable to the enforcing authorities
PUBLIC GARAGES:
In repair garages, unit heaters must
be at least 8 feet (2.4m) above the floor. Refer to the
latest edition of NFPA No. 88B, Repair Garages.
In parking structures, unit heaters must be installed
so that the burner fl ames are located a minimum of 18
inches (457mm) above the fl oor or protected by a partion
not less than 18 inches (457mm) high. However, any
unit heater mounted in a parking structure less than 8 ft.
(2.4m) above the fl oor must be equipped with an OSHA
approved fan guard. Refer to the latest edition of NFPA
88A, Parking Structures.
In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the
latest edition of CSA-B149 “Installation Codes for Gas
Burning Appliances and Equipment.”
AIR DISTRIBUTION:
Direct air towards areas of
maximum heat loss. When multiple heaters are involved,
circulation of air around the perimeter is recommended
where heated air fl ows along exposed walls. Satisfactory
results can also be obtained where multiple heaters are
located toward the center of the area with heated air
directed toward the outside walls. Be careful to avoid
all obstacles and obstructions which could impede the
warm air distribution patterns. Heat throw distances are
presented in Table 2, and Figure 2A.
Figure 2A - Heat Throw Distances
INSTALLATION
Do not install unit heaters in
corrosive or fl ammable atmospheres! Premature
failure of, or severe damage to the unit will
result!
Avoid locations where extreme
drafts can affect burner operation. Unit heaters
must not be installed in locations where air
for combustion would contain chlorinated,
halogenated or acidic vapors. If located in such
an environment, premature failure of the unit will
occur!
Since the unit is equipped with an automatic gas ignition
system, the unit heater must be installed such that the
gas ignition control system is not directly exposed to
water spray, rain or dripping water.
NOTICE: Location of unit heaters is related directly to
the selection of sizes (refer to Figure 2). Basic rules
are as follows:
Figure 2 - Heater Location
MOUNTING HEIGHT:
Unit Heaters must be installed at
a minimum of 8 feet (2.4m) above the fl oor, measured
to the bottom of the unit. At heights above 8 feet (2.4m),
less effi cient air distribution will result. Occasionally unit
heaters must be mounted at heights of 12 to 16 feet (3.7
to 4.9m) in order to clear obstacles. When this is the case,
it is advisable to use centrifugal blower unit heaters.
AIRCRAFT HANGARS:
Unit Heaters must be installed in
aircraft hangars and public garages as follows: In aircraft
hangars, unit heaters must be at least 10 feet (3.1m)
above the upper surface of wings or engine enclosures
of the highest aircraft to be stored in the hangar and 8
