IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
All gas fitting and installation of this heater shall only be
done by a licensed gas fitter or licensed plumber.
For all side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment
installed in every dwelling, building or structure used in
whole or in part for residential purposes, including those
owned or operated by the Commonwealth and where
the side wall exhaust vent termination is less than seven
(7) feet above finished grade in the area of the venting,
including but not limited to decks and porches, the following
requirements shall be satisfied:
Installation of Carbon Monoxide Detectors
At the time of installation of the side wall horizontal vented
gas fueled equipment, the installing plumber or gas fitter
shall observe that a hard wired carbon monoxide detec-
tor with an alarm is installed on each additional level of
the dwelling, building or structure served by the side wall
horizontal vented gas fueled equipment. It shall be the
responsibility of the property owner to secure the services
of qualified licensed professionals for the installation of
hard wired carbon monoxide detectors.
In the event that the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled
equipment is installed in a crawl space or an attic, the hard
wired carbon monoxide detector with alarm and battery
back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor level.
In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can
not be met at the time of completion of installation, the

with the above provisions shall comply with NFPA 720 and
ANSI/UL 2034 listed and IAS certified.
Signage
A metal or plastic identification plate shall be per

line with the exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally
vented gas fueled heating appliance or equipment. The
sign shall read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2)
inch in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW, KEEP
CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS".
