The following factors should be taken into consideration: • Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork and windows. See “Clearances/Height Requirements on page 8. 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 BEDROOM OR BATHROOM. • 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 42" 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 3 below 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. Figure 3 - Location of Firebox CLEARANCES and HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS Ensure that minimum clearances shown in Figures 4 through 7 are maintained.
