CAUTION: ENERGIZING HEATER AT A VOLTAGE GREATER
THAN THE VOLTAGE PRINTED ON THE NAMEPLATE WILL
DAMAGE THE HEATER AND VOID THE WARRANTY AND
COULD CAUSE A FIRE.
Heater Location Instructions
Arrange units so that discharge air streams:
a. are subjected to a minimum of interference from columns,
machinery and partitions;
b. wipe exposed walls without blowing directly at them;
c. are directed away from room occupants in comfort heating;
d. are directed along the windward side when installed in a
building exposed to a prevailing wind.
!
4. To reduce the risk of fire, do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of the
heater.
5. The ceiling or wall mounting structure and the anchoring
provisions must be of sufficient strength to support the combined weight of the heater and mounting bracket.
6. All built-in thermostats: If the heater is used to prevent piping or liquids from freezing, and if the thermostat is set
below 45° F (7°C), the fan must run continuously.
7. The heater must be mounted at least 7’ (2134 mm) above
the floor to avoid accidental contact with the fan blade which
could cause injury.
8. Keep at least 5’ clearance in front of the heater. Refer to
Table 1 for side, top and back clearance requirements.
9. Do not mount mercury type thermostat directly on unit.
Vibration could cause heater to malfunction.
Locate thermostats approximately 5' (1524mm) above the floor
on interior partition walls or post away from cold drafts, internal
heat sources and away from heater discharge air streams.
Small rooms can be heated by one unit heater.
Large rooms require multi-unit installations. Number and capaci-
ty of units will be determined by volume of building and square
feet of floor area to be heated. Arrange units to provide perimeter
air circulation where each unit supports the air stream from
another.

Mounting the Heater - General
The heater may be mounted to discharge the heated air either
horizontally or vertically. When the heater is mounted for vertical
discharge, it is recommended that the heater be positioned so
that the access door will open away from the wall to provide
greater access to the wiring and control compartment. If the
heater is to be mounted with the access door facing a wall, the
heater must be mounted far enough from that wall to allow full
opening of the access door (a distance approximately equal to
the width of the heater, check clearance before installing). Refer
to Table 1 for wall and ceiling clearances before mounting heater.
The heater may be mounted for either vertical or horizontal discharge by the use of th
ed rod sizes required.) Observe the detailed procedures in the
following installation instructions.
The heater may also be suspended from the wall or ceiling by
means of an optional mounting bracket (type MMB or MCMB)
which permits horizontal pivoting of the heater.
After the heater is installed, the louvers may be positioned to
direct the heated air in the desired direction. When the heater is
installed for horizontal discharge, the louvers should direct the
air either straight ahead or downward. Directing the air upward
may cause the heated air to remain in the ceiling area and waste
energy.
