I plan to install this heater in a wall that has a wood paneling cover. The local building code requires that the heater be UL listed for zero clearance to combustible construction AND that documentation of this listing be provided for review by the...

When we bought it, the box had those material in it. The key to this heater is that as soon as it starts to heat up the fan comes on and when you turn the dean down or off, the fan stays on till the unit is totally cooled down. Makes good sense.

I would definitely not install anything that is supposed to be installed outdoors in a shed. The chimney on this heater is very short, basically a few inches with a cap, and I would worry both about combustion byproducts and fire safety if it were installed in an enclosed space. There are on-demand heaters rated for indoor installation. You could hang it on the wall outside the shed.

8 1/2" W x 11 3/4" H x 6 7/8" D Using the supplied wall mount will add another 3/4". The manual states that combustibles (cloth, paper, fabric, etc.) should be kept 3 feet from the front. Additional information to previous posts on "over-heating" and "safety tilt" shut-off. The manual does state that the heater has an over-temperature shut off. From experience, the front of this unit does not get too hot. Even when it's been running for 5 minutes continuous, I can touch the metal grill with it NOT being very hot. The actual heating element is "hidden" and the warm air is fan-forced out the front. I use my unit multiple times a day, every day. I do recommend this unit but do suggest that the instruction manual is read before using...don't just take my word for correctness of information posted.

10-3/8"Wx7-7/8"Hx3-3/4"D for wall penetration, cover is 12/1/4"Wx9-1/2"H. If you clean the heater annually before the heating season starts, it will last a long time(10 years or more). Dust buildup will block airflow and kill it. Mine has been sole source heat for my bathroom and works good. Thermostat gives pretty good temperature control. I would recommend this heater.

yes, there are holes to install against a wall. No it does not get too hot to burn the wall.

I believe you need an indoor unit with the proper venting otherwise you may burn your house down. I have an outdoor unit as pictured and it puts out a lot of heat when it's on! If I remember correctly the indoor units have venting that can accommodate the heat produced.

i think that you can view a manual online.The unit stays pretty cool all around and on top, but always leave space all around the unit for air circulation to cool unit and prevent a fire should some mishap occur.. i would give it at least 1 foot clearance between back and side wall. Ciao

The VW-1 rating on this cable indicates that it complies with fire safety codes and insurance requirements and is safe for use inside the walls of residential class buildings. (source: monoprice.com)

I have not mounted it onto the wall. I love in south Florida so I don't plan on using the heater. But I am not sure if that could be hazardous.

The heater has a pan which is I believe designed to fit between 16" center studs. I used the heater ( because of its measurements were very close) to replace an old heater built into a cement wall. I just used the old pan built in the cement wall and replaced the interior and cover. Wire size for 3000 watts at 240 volt would be minimum 14 gauge but 12 would be better. I didn't purchase any warranty.

It needs to vented out a side wall,max thickness of 12".the unit dosen't use inside room air for combustion,which is very good.

From the included literature: The following minimum clearances must be maintained: Bottom of heater to floor - 1/4", Sides of heater to adjacent wall - 12", Top of heater to ceiling 36". Also, heater can only be mounted horizontally.

This heater needs to be mounted on the wall. The fuel inlet is on the bottom and the piping will take up some room.

I am not sure Jefferson. It has a can that the heater fits in. I assume it is a safe amount of heat if that is your concern. Otherwise there would specific warnings. If you really want to know specifics I would call the manufacturer at customer service. Good luck, Jeff

This is supposed to mount to a wall. I mounted mine on a wood paneled wall. The heat escapes from the top, so I am sure there are clearance requirements there. I don't think you can mount anything flameable directly over the top of it.

I would say a qualified "YES" - however, just like any heating device, NO NOT have it positioned in front of combustible material of any kind. The air temperature coming out of the unit is close to 600 degrees F. The metal case approaches 250 degrees F at the front. I have used an infra-red thermometer to verify these measurements.

This heater requires a minimum clearance of 8' above the floor for public garages in accordance with the ANSI/NFPA No. 88 most recent edition. Commercial buildings have different clearance regulations. Please see page 3 of the owner's manual for detailed clearance requirements and also check your local codes and ordinances for installation requirements in your area prior to installing.
