OUTDOOR SHELTER INSTALLATION
In Canada, this pool heater can only be installed outdoors or in an enclosure that is not normally occupied and has no
direct openings into occupied areas.
Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correctly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly when installing heater. Do not
use a draft hood with this heater, as the exhaust is under pressure from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust
fumes to blow into the room housing the heater. Exhaust venting to the outdoors is required for all outdoor shelter installations.
Risk of explosion if a unit burning propane gas is installed in a pit or other low spot. Propane is heavier than air. Do
not install the heater using propane in pits or other locations where gas might collect. Consult your local building code officials
to determine installation requirements and specific installation restrictions of the heater relative to propane storage tanks and
filling equipment. Installation must meet the requirements for the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum
Gases, CAN/CSA B149.2 (latest edition) or ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition). Consult local codes and fire protection authorities
about specific installation restrictions.
The heater is design certified by CSA International for installation on combustible flooring; in alcoves; basements; in
closet or utility rooms (in the U.S.).

GARAGE OR UTILITY ROOM INSTALLATION

In Canada, the heater must be installed in a room that is not normally occupied and has no openings
directly to occupied areas.
Risk of fire and explosion if installed at floor level in an automotive garage or near gasoline or flammable liquid storage.
Gasoline fumes are heavier than air and will settle to floor level in closed spaces. Gasoline fumes and spilled gasoline or other
volatile liquids (such as some paints and varnishes) will travel across the floor and can be ignited by a gas appliance.
In any utility room or residential garage installation, install the heater with the base at least 18 inches (.5M) above the
floor, see Figure 19. In a garage, install a rail or wall to protect the heater from physical damage by a moving vehicle.
Provide an adequate ventilation air supply (See
by chemical fumes.
A Propane (LPG) fired heater must not be installed in a garage in
Massachusetts, by order of the Massachusetts State Fire Marshal. For
more information, call the Massachusetts State Fire Marshal's office.
NOTICE: Combustion air contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes
can damage the heater and will void the warranty
