LOCATION OF FIREBOX
Carefully select the best location for installation of your vent-free firebox. The following factors should be taken into con-
sideration.
• Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork, and windows. Refer to “CLEARANCES and HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS”
section below and on pages 8 and 9. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained.
• Location must not be affected by drafts caused by kitchen exhaust fans, ceiling fans, return air registers for forced air
furnaces/air conditioners, windows, or doors.
• Installation must provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.
• DO NOT INSTALL THIS FIREBOX IN A BATHROOM.
• This firebox enclosure is approved for bedrooms on the condition that the unvented room heater does not exceed 10,000
BTUs input and the room is properly sized for combustion air.
• Location should be out of high traffic or windy or drafty areas.
• DO NOT INSTALL WHERE CURTAINS, FURNITURE, CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE OBJECTS
ARE LESS THAN 36" FROM FRONT OF HEATER.
• Never obstruct the front opening of the vent-free firebox or restrict the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• Minimize modifications to existing construction. Refer to Figure 2 for location suggestions.
• Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored. The vent-free firebox must be
kept clear and free from these combustible materials.
