3) Protect heater from wind, high traffic areas, and drafts (such as doorways, locations that get direct air from a ceiling
fan, etc.) as this will cause nuisance pilot outage.
4) All models may be wall mounted using the factory supplied (standard) wall mounting bracket. Additionally all
models may be installed freestanding, by adding the optional VF-FSK Floor Stand Kit and using an approved, fire
resistant floor mat (available from factory). NOTE: Both wall and floor mount installations require hard piping.
5) If optional blower is to be added, locate heater so there is safe access to an electrical outlet.
