Hazards Include:
For maximum safety the building must be evaluated for hazards before installing the heater system
including the following:
A critical safety factor to consider before installation is the clearance to combustible materials. Clearance
to combustible is defined as the minimum distance you must have between the heater casing and the
combustible items. Consideration must also be made for moving objects around the infrared heater. The
following is a partial list of items to maintain clearances from:
Combustible Items: Moving Objects
When installing infrared heating systems, the minimum clearance from combustible materials must be
maintained. These distances are shown in page 8 and on the minimum clearance to combustibles label
found on the heater. If you are unsure of the potential hazards, consult your local Fire Marshall, fire
insurance carrier or other qualified authorities on the installation of gas-fired infrared heater for approval of
the proposed installation.
