The location must allow for proper clearances (see Clearances,next column).2. Consider a location where heat output would not be affectedby drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows, or doors.3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists or roof rafters willmake installation easier. Figure 2 shows a plan view of a fewcommon locations.Flush installations are recommended where living space islimited or at a premium, and since the space required to enclose theappliance would be located beyond an outside wall, this would alsoreduce the cutting of joists, roof rafters, and such. Check local codesfor any restrictions.Projected installations can extend any distance into the room. Aprojection may be ideal for a new addition on an existing, finished wall.Corner installations make use of space that may not normally beused and provides a wider and more efficient range for radiant heattransference.Internal wall installations provide a discreet option for roomseparation and can also be ideal as an addition to an existing wall.Figure 2 - Possible Locations for Installing ApplianceINTERNAL WALLINSTALLATIONCORNERINSTALLATIONFULLPROJECTIONINSTALLATIONFLUSHINSTALLATIONSELECTING LOCATIONSELECTING LOCATIONPRE-INSTALLATION PREPARATIONClearances
