1-B. LOCATION

The Munchkin is designed for Installation on combustible flooring, in alcoves, basements, closets, utility rooms. The

Munchkin shall be installed so that the gas ignition system components are protected from water. This includes all related

piping and components.

Choose a location for your Munchkin, centralized to the piping system, along with consideration to vent pipe length. The

length of vent pipe increases the firing rate of the Munchkin decreases. You must also locate the Munchkin where it will not

be exposed to freezing temperatures. Additionally, you will need to place the heater so that the controls, inlet/outlet, and gas

valve are easily accessed. This Munchkin must not be installed outdoors, for it is certified as an indoor appliance only and

must be kept vertical and on a level surface. Also, care must be exercised when choosing the location of this appliance; where

leakage from the relief valve and from related piping will not result in damage to the surrounding areas or to the lower floors

of the building. A heater should always be located in an area with a floor drain or installed in a suitable drain pan.

Proper clearance must be provided around the Munchkin as follows: Sides, bottom, top, and back are 0" (zero clearance).

Venting is also zero clearance. The front of the appliance needs 24" of clearance for service minimum. It must have a non-

rated or combustible door or access panel and should have a minumum clearance of 24" front, 15" top, 6" right side and 10" to

the left side. Under no circumstances, shall Heat Transfer Products Inc. be held liable for any such water damage
whatsoever. This heater must not be located near flammable liquids such as gasoline, adhesives, solvents, paint
thinners, butane, liquefied propane, etc., the controls of this appliance could ignite those vapors, causing an explosion.

1-C. PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

A pressure relief valve is installed into the front right side manifold we recommend a WATTS "M 335 MI valve or

equivalent and meets the requirements of ANSI/ASME Section IV for heating boilers. A " pipe must be directed to a floor

drain or suitable location within 6" of drain or floor. Protect from freezing, do not plug or cap pressure relief valve. Serious

explosion causing property damage and or loss of life could result. Under no circumstances should the relief valve be
