* Heaters mounted on an angle between 0° to 30° must maintain clearances posted for 0° or 30°; whichever is greater.
Important! If the heater is mounted beneath a non-
combustible surface an 8 in. minimum top clearance
must be maintained from the top of the heater to
prevent overheating the controls.
