ACCESSIBILITY CLEARANCE, WHERE GREATER, SHOULD TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER
MINIMUM FIRE PROTECTION CLEARANCE.
A gas fired furnace for installation in a residential garage must be installed so that the ignition
source and burners are located not less than eighteen inches (18”) above the floor and is protected
or located to prevent physical damage by vehicles.
A gas furnace must not be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible materials other
than wood flooring.
WARNING
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL MUST NOT BE PLACED ON OR AGAINST THE FURNACE JACKET.
THE AREA AROUND THE FURNACE MUST BE KEPT CLEAR AND FREE OF ALL
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL INCLUDING GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND
LIQUIDS. THE FURNACE AREA MUST NOT BE USED AS A BROOM CLOSET OR FOR ANY
OTHER STORAGE PURPOSE.
VENTING
See the illustrations and vent tables at the end of this manual for venting procedures.
The venting must be in accordance with the GAMA venting tables. The minimum vertical vent
length allowed is five feet (5’).
ANNUAL inspection of the furnace and its vent system is strongly recommended. Visually check
the vent for corrosion or separation at the joints and seams. It is the contractor’s responsibility to
inform the user of this importance.
All venting shall be in accordance with Part 7, Venting of Equipment, of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, or applicable local building and/or air conditioning codes.
PROPER INSTALLATION OF THE VENTING SYSTEM IS CRITICAL FOR SAFE OPERATION OF
THIS APPLIANCE. CAREFULLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS
SECTION.
