APPLIANCE AND VENT CLEARANCES
The appliance is approved with zero clearance
to combustible materials on all sides (as de-
tailed in
Table 2
), with the following excep-
tion: When the unit is installed with one side
flush with a wall, the wall on the other side of
the unit must not extend beyond the front edge
of the unit. In addition, when the unit is re-
cessed, the side walls surrounding the unit
must not extend beyond the front edge of the
unit. See
Figure 2
.
LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and
functional use of the appliance are primary
concerns. However, vent system routing to
the exterior and access to the fuel supply are
also important. Consideration should be given
to traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due
to elevated surface temperatures (
Figure 2
).
The location should also be free of electrical,
plumbing or other heating/air conditioning
ducting.
These direct vent appliances are uniquely suited
for installations requiring a utility shelf posi-
tioned directly above the fireplace. Utility
shelves like these are commonly used for
locating television sets and decorative plants.
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface
use the alternate rear vent outlet with attached
venting routed in a way to minimize obstruc-
tions to the use of the space above the appli-
ance. Do not insulate the space between the
appliance and the area above it. See
Figure 3
.
The minimum height from the base of the
appliance to the underside of combustible ma-
terials used to construct a utility shelf in this
fashion is shown in the table in
Figure 3
.
The appliance should be mounted on a fully
supported base extending the full width and
depth of the unit. The appliance may be located
on or near conventional construction materi-
als. However, if installed on combustible ma-
terials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a
metal or wood barrier covering the entire bot-
tom surface must be used.
