Suffi -cient combus tion can only be obtained when there isa suf ficient supply of oxygen available for the amountof fuel being burned. If it is necessary to install ama chine in a poorly ventilated area, outside freshair may have to be piped to the burner and a fanin stalled bringing the air into the machine.WARNING: Avoid small areas or areas near exhaustfans.ElectricalThe machine, when installed, must be electricallygrounded in accordance to local codes.
