Sunpak® Infrared Heaters

Ventilation
1. It is required that areas above the heater be
properly vented to allow for necessary
combustion air and removal of combustion gases.
2. Heaters shall be provided with natural or
mechanical means to supply and exhaust at least
4 cfm per 1,000 BTU per hour of heater input.
Exhaust opening for removing the flue products
shall be above the level of the heaters.
3. Heater ventilation must comply with state and
local codes.
Fire Sprinklers
Fire Sprinklers must be located at an appropriate
distance from each heater to avoid accidental activation
of the sprinkler. Ethylene glycol or propylene glycol must
never be used in fire sprinkler systems where heaters are
present as these substances may become flammable
when heated. A fire sprinkler professional must be
consulted when heaters are installed where fire sprinklers
are present to insure that heaters and the fire sprinkler
system are properly integrated. Specific guidelines can be
found in NFPA 13 regarding design and specifications for
Fire Sprinkler Systems near heaters.
