accordance with the enforcing authority for Canada).
Public Garages: Approval requirements are contained in
the current edition of NFPA 88B (CAN/CGA B149 for
Canada).
Parking Structures: Approval requirements are
contained in the current edition of NFPA 88A.
General: All installations must be in accordance with the
current edition of ANSI Z-223.1 (NFPA 54) National Fuel
Gas Code and the current edition of the National Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. For Canada, installations must
conform with local building codes, or in the absence of
local codes, in accordance with the current edition of
CAN/CGA B149 and the Canadian Electric Code, C22.1.
2. Start-up and adjustment procedures should be performed
by a qualified service agency.
3. To check most of the Possible Remedies in the
troubleshooting guide listed in Table 23.1, refer to the

UNIT LOCATION

Appliances must not be installed where they may be
exposed to a potentially explosive or flammable atmosphere.
Do not locate ANY gas-fired units in areas where chlorinated,
halogenated, or acidic vapors are present in the atmosphere.
These substances can cause premature heat exchanger
failure due to corrosion which can cause property damage,
serious injury or death.
As with all infrared equipment, clearances to combustible
materials are critical. Be sure all units have reflectors
installed along the entire length of the tube, and that they are
not mounted at an angle greater than 45° from the horizontal
plane. In locations used for storage of combustible materials,
signs, shall be clearly posted in the vicinity of the heater
where readily apparent to material handlers to specify the
maximum permissible stacking height to maintain required
clearances from the heater to the combustibles.
