6. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
6.1 MOUNTING CLEARANCES
Series 2300 / IO 210 Heaters must be mounted with minimum clearances to combustible ma-
terials. Refer to the introductory section “Clearance to Combustibles” pages 6 to 10 and to
Table 1 and Figure 1 page 7 (Outdoor) or Table 3 and Figure 3 page 10 (Indoor).
THIS HEATER HAS HOT SURFACES: Minimum mounting height is to be no less than 87”
above the floor / deck. Do not locate heater where patrons can come into contact with heater.
Do not store or place items directly underneath heater. Maintain clearance to combustibles.
The heater must be located with respect to building construction and equipment so as to pro-
vide sufficient clearance and accessibility for servicing of burner and ignition control and
cleaning . Provide adequate clearance around air openings into the combustion chamber.
6.2 HEATER MOUNTING
This heater must be rigidly mounted to prevent movement from wind force.
Refer to Table 2 and Figure 2. Series 2300 / IO 210 Heaters are approved for both horizon-
tal and 30° angle mounting on the short axis. Schwank specifies a MAXIMUM 30° mounting
angle - if the short axis is rotated to an angle exceeding 30°, damage to the heater or unsafe
operation can result, and will void warranty.
IMPORTANT: For either horizontal or up to 30° angle mounting, the long axis of the heater
must be level. Use only non-combustible mounting hardware. Figures 6 & 7 on Page 21 il-
lustrate typical suspension hardware that may be used, and provided by Schwank/Infrasave
as an optional component.
overhead doors, etc), structural components, and sprinkler system heads. Consideration must
also be given to ventilation fan placement (outdoor heaters do not require ventilation). Care-
fully survey the area to be heated, and for best results place heaters in the coldest area(s)
and at sufficient spacing to provide uniform radiant heat coverage.
Installation must conform with all local, state, provincial and national code requirements in-
cluding the current latest edition ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) in the U.S.A. and B149.1 installa-
tion code in Canada, for gas burning appliances and equipment. The latest edition Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA N0 70 in the U.S.A. and PART 1 CSA C22.1 in Canada must also be ob-
served.
The heating system must have gas piping of the correct diameter, length, and arrangement to
provide for and satisfy the total system input. A layout drawing is necessary to calculate
properly sized gas supply piping.
