Supply Requirements

Clearance Information

NOTE: The clearances specified above must be maintained to combustibles and other materials that may be damaged by temperatures 90ºF above ambient temperature. Clearances to combustibles are posted on the reflector near the control end of the heater. In locations used for storage of combustible materials where they may be stacked below the heater, NFPA 54 requires that the installer must post signs that will "specify the maximum permissible stacking height to maintain the required clearances from the heater to combustibles".

Lower Mounting Kit
The Lower Mounting Kit (Part #43515000) is required when the CB series of infrared tube heaters is installed at mounting heights between 6 ft. and 8 ft. above a finished floor. The Lower Mounting Kit consists of both the Emitter Guard Kit and the Draft Inducer Guard Kit as described below.

1. Emitter Guard Kit
The Emitter Guard Kit (Part #43485000) includes an aluminum decorative grille with side emitter guard holder panels. This item and the Draft Inducer Guard Kit make up the Lower Mounting Kit, which must be used in installations with mounting heights between 6 ft. and 8 ft. This item could be used separately in installations above 8 ft., however, for decorative purposes if desired.

2. Draft Inducer Guard Kit
The Draft Inducer Guard Kit (Part #43486000) is an aluminum shield mounted around the draft inducer (brackets and screws included).

This item and the Emitter Guard Kit make up the Lower Mounting Kit, which must be used in installations with mounting heights between 6 ft. and 8 ft.
