INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT HANGARS
Low intensity radiant tube heaters are suitable for use in aircraft hangars when installed in
accordance with the latest edition of the Standard for Aircraft hangars, ANSI/NFPA No. 409 in
the USA, or the Canadian Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, B149.1
A minimum clearance of 10 ft (3m) above either the highest fuel storage compartment or the
highest engine enclosure of the highest aircraft, which may occupy the hangar. The clearance to
the bottom of the heater shall be measured from the upper surface of either the fuel storage
compartment or the engine enclosure; whichever is higher from the floor.
A minimum clearance of 8 ft (2.4m) must be maintained from the bottom of the heater to the
floor in other sections of the aircraft hangar, such as offices and shops, which communicate with
areas for servicing or storage. For proper mounting clearances, refer to the clearances to
combustibles in these installation instructions.
Heaters must be located where they are protected from damage to aircraft and other objects, such
as cranes and movable scaffolding.
Heaters must be located so as to be accessible for servicing and adjustment.
INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL GARAGES AND PARKING
STRUCTURES
Low intensity heaters are suitable for use in commercial garages when installed in accordance
with the latest edition of the Standard for Parking Structures, ANSI/NFPA 88A, or the Standard
for Repair Garages ANSI/NFPA No. 88B, or the Canadian Natural Gas and Propane Installation

WARNING
INSTALLATIONS OTHER THAN SPACE HEATING
Use for process or other applications that are not space heating will void the products warranty.
Process application requires field inspection and/or certification by local authorities having
jurisdiction.
IMPORTANT
Single or multiple heater placement must be such that continuous operation of heater(s) will not
cause combustible material or materials in storage to reach a temperature in excess of ambient
temperature plus 90 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius).
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat tolerance,
which may degrade at lower temperatures, are protected to prevent degradation. Refer to
Clearance to Combustibles information in these installation instructions.
