2.3.1 Installation Clearances
All CENTURION models are the same height but vary in depth by model. The unit must be
installed with the prescribed clearances for service as shown in Figure 2-1. The minimum
clearance dimensions, required by PVI, are listed below for all models. However, if Local
Building Codes require additional clearances, these codes shall supersede
PVI’s requirements.
The
minimum acceptable clearances
required are as follows:
Front: 24 inches (61 cm)
Sides: 24 inches (61 cm)
Rear: 24 inches (61 cm)
Top: 18 inches (45.7 cm)
All gas piping, water piping and electrical conduit or cable must be arranged so that they do not
interfere with the removal of any panels or inhibit service or maintenance of the unit.
In multiple unit installations, it is important to plan the position of each unit in advance. Sufficient
space for piping connections and future service/maintenance requirements must also be taken
into consideration. All piping must include ample provisions for expansion
.
NOTE:
CENTURION units may be installed with zero side clearances in pairs only. Perimeter
clearances still apply. See drawings in
Appendix A:
