to 9 1/2 inches (24.1cm) in depth. Note: Do not place combustible
header or material on top of unit when installed in wall. Maintain
3/4" minimum spacing above heater.

Before Installing Consider The Following Venting
1. A chimney for residential-type or low-heat gas utilization equipment
shall extend at least 3 feet (914mm) above the highest point where it
passes through a roof of a building and at least 2 feet (610mm) higher
than any portion of building within a horizontal distance of 10 feet
(3m).
2. This furnace must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate
solid-fuel burning appliance.
3. Uninsulated Single-Wall Metal Pipe shall not be used outdoors in
cold climates for venting gas utilization equipment.
4. Attention! This Fan Type Vented Wall Furnace is equipped with a vent
safety switch. In the event of spillage of flue products due to improper
venting the vent safety switch will open, which results in the main
burners to "shut off".
