INSTALLATION (continued)
The Unit Heater may be mounted by
fastening the hanging brackets directly
to ceiling joists or by suspending from
four rods. See Figures 3, 4 and 5.
Make certain that
the lifting methods used to lift the
heater and the method of suspen-
sion used in the field installation
of the heater are capable of
uniformly supporting the weight
of the heater at all times. Failure
to heed this warning may result in
property damage or personal
injury!
Make sure that the
structure to which the unit heater
is to be mounted is capable of
safely supporting its weight.
Under no circumstances must the
gas lines, the venting system or
the electrical conduit be used to
support the heater; or should any
other objects (i.e. ladder, person)
lean against the heater gas lines,
venting system or the electrical
conduit for support. Failure to
heed these warnings may result
in property damage, personal
injury, or death.
Unit Heaters must be
hung level from side to side and from
front to back, see Figures 3, 4 and 5.
Failure to do so will result in poor
performance and/or premature failure
of the unit.
Ensure that all
hardware used in the suspension
of each unit heater is more than
adequate for the job. Failure to do
so may result in extensive prop-
erty damage, severe personal
injury, or death!
Refer to Figures 3, 4 and 5 for
suspension of units.
