wall up 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

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.
ATTENTION! This Fan Type Vented Wall Furnace is equipped
4.
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".
Model No. FAW-40 may be vented as shown in Figure 4. The vent
cap termination must be at least 12 feet (3.7m) above the floor and
must exhaust to the outdoors. Clearance to combustible construc-
tion is held by the fixed spacers at 1 inch (25mm) with B-1 or (B-W)
vent pipe. Installation must conform to local codes.
