Combustible Items Include: Moving Objects Include:

• Wood • Overhead doors

• Paper • Vehicles on lifts

• Fabric • Cranes

• Chemicals • Hoists

• Wall or roof insulation • Car wash equipment

When installing the infrared heater system, the minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained.

These distances are shown in Chart 1.1 and on page 6. If you are unsure of the potential hazards, consult

your local ﬁre marshal, ﬁre insurance carrier, or other qualiﬁed authorities on the installation of infrared

heaters for approval of the proposed installation.

A critical safety factor to consider before installation is the clearances to combustibles. Clearance to

combustibles is deﬁned as the

minimum distance you must have between the indicated surface and the

combustible item.

Considerations must also be made for moving objects around the infrared heater. The

following is a partial list of items to maintain clearances from:

Hazards Include:

For maximum safety the building must be evaluated for hazards before installing the heater system.

Examples include, but are not limited to:

• Gas and electrical lines

• Combustible and explosive materials

• Chemical storage areas

• Areas of high chemical fume concentrations

• Provisions for accessibility to the heater

• Adequate clearances around air openings

• Vehicle parking areas

• Vehicles with lifts or cranes

• Storage areas with stacked materials

• Lights

• Sprinkler heads

• Overhead doors and tracks

• Dirty, contaminated environment

Signs shall be posted specifying the maximum permissible stacking height in order to

maintain clearances to combustibles.

Placement of explosive objects, ﬂammable objects, liquids, and vapours close to the heater

may result in explosion, ﬁre, property damage, serious injury, or death. Do not store, or use,

explosive objects, liquids, and vapour in the vicinity of the heater.

Failure to comply with the published clearances to combustibles could result in personal

injury, death, and/or property damage.

The outside surfaces of the heater are hot during operation and after operation. If contact is

made, permanent skin damage may occur. Do not move, handle, or service the unit during

operation or while hot.

Space Heating: Mount bottom of heater 8 feet above grade or ﬂoor.

** Mounting angles exceeding 0° must use the angle brackets or additional ﬁeld-supplied brackets,

spacers, chains, etc. as necessary to maintain clearances to combustables.

NOTE: Ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance (i.e, awnings, fabrics, plastics, sprinklers,

insulation, etc.) are protected against degradation. This may require the heater to be mounted at a distance

in excess of the published clearances to combustibles. Contact the material manufacturer for speciﬁc

details.

Safety Signs and Labels

It is important to provide warnings to alert individuals to potential hazards and safety actions. Signs should

state the hazards for the particular application and be legible to the building occupants. Consult the

factory or a factory representative for additional information on signage compliance.

Safety warning labels must be maintained on the infrared heater. Illustrations of the safety labels, and their

locations, are pictured below. When no longer legible, they must be replaced. Contact either your local

distributor or the product manufacturer for obtaining replacement signs or labels.

BAH Series Manual

2.0 Installation •Design

Read and understand, the installation, operating and maintenance instructions

thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.

Design

To ensure a safe, properly designed heating system, a layout should be developed for the correct

placement of the infrared heater(s).

Aside from safety factors such as clearances to combustibles (see Chart 1.1 on page 6), you should also

take into consideration the environment (e.g., cold/drafty, average, protected), heat coverage (sq. ft.)

needed, heater centers, and the distance behind a person or work station(s). Also, the eﬀective infrared

surface temperature of a person or object may be diminished with wind above 5 mph. Wind barrier(s) may

be required. Most importantly, clearances to combustibles must always be maintained! Refer to hazards

on page 5.

When positioning the heaters, keep in mind combustible materials, lights, sprinkler heads, overhead doors,

storage areas with stacked materials, gas and electrical lines, parked vehicles, cranes, etc. Refer to Page

6 for minimum clearances to verify that a safe installation exists.

This installation manual, along with national, state, provincial, and local codes, address these issues. It is

critical that you read, understand, and follow all guidelines and instructions. Always inspect and evaluate

the mounting conditions, application, and wiring.

When heated, materials high in hydrocarbons (solvents, paint thinner, mineral spirits, formaldehydes, etc.)

can evaporate and/or degrade. This may result in odors or fumes being emitted into the environment. To

correct this problem, clean the area and/or introduce additional ventilation. Heaters installed and serviced

in accordance with the installation manual do not emit foul odors into the environment.

IMPORTANT: Fire sprinkler heads must be located at an appropriate distance from the heater to avoid an

inadvertent discharge. This distance may exceed the published clearances to combustibles. Certain

applications may require the use of high temperature sprinkler heads or relocation of the heaters.

Fire sprinkler systems containing propylene glycol, antifreeze, or other potentially ﬂammable substances

shall not be used in conjunction with this heater without careful consideration for and avoidance of

inadvertent discharge hazards. For further information consult NFPA 13. Always observe applicable

state and local codes.
