3. Installation
3.1 Heater Installation
◆Select the location to place the heater, most of the time the heater is installed on the
floor or side wall under the bed in the truck storage compartment or under the seat in
passenger vans in order for the heater exhaust fumes to be exhausted directly to the
outside of the cabin or passengers space, and the warm air can be easy distributed
throughout the cabin.
◆Heater shall be protected from excessive heat, exposure, and possible
contamination from fuel or oil. Keep heater exhaust away from electrical wires, fuel
lines, water lines, and any other heat sensitive and flammable materials. Provide
sufficient ventilation.
◆All precautions must be taken when arranging the heater placement to minimize
the risk of injury or damage to property.
3.2 Fuel Supply
◆The fuel intake connections shall NOT be in the passenger compartment or
operator (driver) cabin. In vehicles where a separate fuel tank is used for the heater,
the fuel tank lines and intake connection must be clearly identified. A warning sign
shall be permanently attached to the intake connection or fuel tank indicating that the
heater must be switched OFF before refueling.
3.3 Exhaust System
◆The exhaust outlet must be arranged in a way that the exhaust fumes goes directly
to the outside of the vehicle. Prevent penetration of exhaust fumes into the vehicle
interior through the ventilation system, warm air intakes, or open windows.
3.4 Combustion Air Intake
◆The heater combustion air shall NOT be taken from passenger compartment, cargo
space or operator (driver) cabin. The air intake shall be protected from possible water,
debris, snow and ice intake into combustion chamber, and cannot be blocked by any
object at any time. Point the air intake away from vehicle travel direction.
Please Note:
◆Failure to comply with the regulations, safety instructions, repairs done by
unauthorized person, or use of aftermarket parts voids warranty and relieves
manufacture, distributors, dealers, and installation technicians from any and all
liabilities.
◆The installer is responsible for all damages to the property or person that arises
from faulty installation of the heater.
4. Safety Instructions and Operation
◆Disconnect vehicle battery power before commencing repair or performing heater
maintenance.
◆Before beginning any work on the heater, switch the heater OFF and let all hot
parts cool down.
