Installation Instructions

Clearance to Combustibles 

A general clearance of 18” (0.5 m) in every direction

 is recommended for servicing only around 

each Burner, also to ensure adequate air flow in and around the Heating System. 
The stated clearance to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 90°F (50°C) above room 

temperature. Building materials with low heat tolerance

 (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-

ply, etc…) 

maybe subject to degradation at lower temperatures. 

It is the installer’s responsibility 

to assure that adjacent materials are protected from degradation. 
In addition to this it is very important to observe the minimum clearance to combustibles at all 

times to avoid any possibility of property damage or personal injury.  

Table below lists the minimum clearance to combustible materials for various installation 

configurations. Additional clearance may be required for glass, painted surfaces and other materials 

which maybe damaged by radiant or convective heat. 

Combustible materials are considered to be wood, compressed paper, plant fibres, plastics, Plexiglas 

or other materials capable of being ignited and burned.  Such materials shall be considered 

combustible even though flame-proofed, fire-retardant treated or plastered.

Note with an ambient temperature of 70

°

F the surface temperatures at the clearance distances 

listed below could reach 160°F, Care should be taken with placement of plastic or vinyl in the 

proximity of the heater as they tend to distort and soften at these temperatures. 

Adequate clearance to sprinkler heads must be maintained. 

NOTE

: Sprinkler head heat fuse link performance may alter with age. 

NOTE

Some materials deteriorate or soften at sustained temperatures below 160°F. 

Consult material manufacturer for recommendations
