CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
WARNING
Placement of explosive objects, flammable objects, liquids and vapors
close to the heater may result in fire, explosion, death and serious injury
or property damage. Do not store or use explosive objects, liquids and
vapor in the vicinity the heater.
In all situations the clearance to combustibles
must be maintained. Failure to observe
clearances to combustibles will result in death,
serious injury, or property damage.
In storage
areas where stacking of materials may occur,
the installer must provide signs, which specify
the maximum stacking height so as to maintain
the required clearance to combustibles.
Minimum clearances must be maintained from
vehicles parked, below the heater. Ensure that
adequate clearance is maintained where vehicles
are in operation or being serviced. Consideration
must be given when running the radiant tube next to
wood, paper, storage racks, hoists, building
construction, etc. For building personnel safety and
comfort. It is recommended that the system not be
mounted lower than 20' above the floor. The
following illustrations and information give minimum
acceptable clearance to combustibles.
Minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained
for wall, floor, ceiling temperatures.
The stated clearance
to combustibles represents a surface temperature of
90ºF (32ºC) above room temperature. Building materials
with a low heat tolerance (such as plastics, vinyl
siding, canvas, tri-ply, etc.) may be subject to
degradation at lower temperatures. It is the installer’s
responsibility to assure that adjacent materials are
protected from degradation.
Clearances must also be maintained from vehicles parked
below as well as storage racks, partitions, hoists, building
construction, etc.
In storage areas where stacking of materials may occur,
the installer must provide signs that specify the maximum
stacking height so as to maintain the required clearance to
combustibles. A temporary sign can be found at the end
of this manual. Contact your sales representative or
