shall be installed so that all burners and burner ignition devices are located not less than 18 inches
(46 cm) above the floor. You must build a platform 18” above floor, the full width and depth of the
heater, including the rear trim kit. HEATER IS NOT DESIGNED TO HANG ON WALL.
Unit should be located or protected so it is not subject to damage by a moving vehicle. Use care in
selecting a good location within the garage. DO NOT locate the appliance where heated air will be
directed onto a nearby parked vehicle. Paint may discolor or rubber may harden and crack. DO
NOT allow open or closed containers of paint, gasoline or other liquids having flammable vapors to
be stored or used in the same area as the heater.
LOCATION
1. The wall furnace must be installed on an outside wall, unless optional Kit No. HEVK-5 is used.
2. For most efficient performance, locate furnace as centrally as possible in the area to be heated and
where occupants may move about freely without coming into contact with the cabinet, and within
reach of a 115V wall outlet.
3. If the furnace is installed in a basement, a 12” clearance must be maintained between ground
level and the bottom of the vent cap. Do not install furnace where vent cap will terminate in a
window well or any other opening below ground level. (See Figure 3). Do not allow snow
accumulation to build up within 12” of the vent cap.
OPTIONAL KITS
1. HEVK-5 - To extend vent 5 foot from heater. This will allow vent cap to be installed above
grade from basement or to an outside wall. A total of 3 kits with 2 additional elbows may be
used.
