Re: Portable LPG Heaters Group A
Clearances (from the specs in the Ad): "Minimum Clearance: 2 feet (Sides) and 3 feet (Top)"
From the front cover of the manual: "Warning: For Outdoor Use Only!" and,
"This outdoor patio heater must be used for outdoors only in a well
ventilated area
and not be used in a vehicle or
any enclosed building."
And: "2.1 Installation warning
The installation must conform with local, state and federal codes. In
absents of such codes, install in accordance with the current American
National Standard (ANSI) / National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
publication “ Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum
Gases” ANSI / NFPA 58-Latest Revision, and “ National Fuel Gas Code”
ANSOZ223.1." (Note that it does NOT indicate a 'listing' for the unit itself.
)
Of course, if you go to the main page and look at the heaters general information page you can find... "While you're
able to use your heater in an outdoor area (that is covered in order to protect the heater from water),
you'll find it better suited to use your heater in an enclosed area. Even if your area has roof coverage, it will work towards cocooning in the emitted heat. In an enclosed patio, you are going to find that a portable patio heater will give you a lot more heat than in an open setting - though the portable heater works in both settings."
I haven't found any listing information on their website yet. But the conflicting information about where they can be used could create some real problems. Personally I think they can enhance the setting in a residential application, but not too sure I would be comfortable approving an unlisted appliance for use at a commercial facility... JMHO
