Installation GL16

The site should have a relatively level, sturdy
floor capable of supporting the unit’s weight
without significant flexing. Refer to the
APPENDIX, Technical Specifications for
weight specifications. No special foundation, floor
grouting, or installation of anchors is required.
However, shimming of the end frames is generally
needed to level the unit. Floor grouting, in
conjunction with the installation of anchors, may
be required to comply with local codes or aboard
a ship.
A short run of 10" (254 mm) diameter vent
ducting must be supplied locally for the exhaust
blower and canopy. Adequate ventilation is
required. For more information within this chapter,
proceed to the Installation Procedures section,
Exhaust Blower Installation procedure.
The electrical requirements of the unit are
shown on the nameplate at the back of the right
end frame. Wiring and a separate, fused
disconnect switch of suitable size must be locally
supplied if local codes require one. Check local
codes for clearance requirements to any electrical
box. For more information within this chapter,
proceed to the Installation Procedures section,
Electrical Connection procedure.
Each unit has specific gas requirements; verify
the local gas supply matches the gas requirements
specified on the unit’s nameplate. For more
information within this chapter, proceed to the
Installation Procedures section,
Gas
Connection procedure.
