NOTICE
To ensure a safe, properly designed heating system, a layout should be developed for the correct
placement of the infrared heater(s). Aside from safety factors such as clearance to combustibles (see
Chart 1.1 on page 5), you should take into consideration:
• The environment (e.g., is it cold/drafty, average, protected)?
NOTE: The effective infrared surface temperature of a person or object may
be diminished with wind above 5 mph, wind barriers may be required.
• What is the area of heat coverage (e.g., sq. ft.) needed (Chart 2.1, Figure 2.2)?
• Is the heater being used in a social gathering area, or work station(s)?
• The mounting height of the heater (Chart 2.1, Figure 2.2).
• The type of mounting to be used.
• Physical space needed for the heater (Figure 2.1).
• Gas supply and connections.
• Combustion, ventilating air supply and exhaust path.
• Electricity and wiring to the heater.
Fire sprinkler heads must be located at an appropriate distance from the heater to avoid an inadvertent
discharge. This distance may exceed the published clearance to combustibles. Certain applications may
require the use of high temperature sprinkler heads or relocation of the heaters.

2.0 Installation • Design
Read and understand, the installation, operating and maintenance instructions
thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.
Only trained, qualified gas installation and service personnel may install or service
this equipment.
This heater cannot be used in a building with a
roof that is not insulated or where condensation
problems can occur.
Design
Radiant heat is capable of damaging or destroying
certain materials or items. Do not store material or
items underneath the heater. Always maintain
clearance to combustibles.
Fire sprinkler systems containing propylene glycol, antifreeze or other potentially flammable substances
shall not be used in conjunction with this heater without careful consideration for and avoidance of
inadvertent discharge hazards. For further information consult NFPA 13. Always observe applicable state
and local codes.
