Anchor heater to equipment pad.a garage or utility room, see Figure 1. Do not locate theheater below an outdoor deck, unless treated as an indoorinstallation with adequate clearances and proper ventingto a location away from the deck.If the heater is installed close to a structure, protect it fromrain water runoff by means of gutters, roof water divertersor similar measures. Do not locate the heater close toirrigation sprinklers. Water from sprinklers may damagecontrols and electronic components.Because the Hi-E2 is very efficient, combustion systemexhaust gases are moist. Do not locate the heater suchthat this exhaust will impinge on structures or vegetationwhich may be damaged by combustion condensate.WARNINGUnited StatesDo not install the heater with the top of the ventassembly within 4 feet (1.22 m) horizontally, 4 feet(1.22 m) below or less than 1 ft (300 mm) above of anyopening into a building.CanadaDo not install the heater with the top of the ventassembly within 10 feet (3.05 m) of any opening into abuilding.In Florida it is required that the heater be securelyfastened to the equipment pad. Use a size 1/4” x 2-1/4”long galvanized or plated concrete screws and washersat each of the four (4) tabs located at the base of theheater. Mounting the appliance in this manner meets theapplicable requirements of the Florida Building Code.Mounting screws are not provided with this heater. Afterplacing the heater on the equipment pad, drill a hole inthe concrete at each of the four (4) tabs on the feet of theheater. (The correct size drill bit is usually provided withthe concrete screws when purchased). Place a screw ineach of the holes and fasten the heater to the equipmentpad, see Figure 2. Do not over torque the screws.2.6 Outdoor Shelter Installation (Canada)An outdoor shelter is an unoccupied enclosure whichdoes not communicate directly with occupied areas.The Hi-E2 may be installed in such a shelter only whenthe installation is in accordance with local codes andthe most recent edition of the Natural Gas and PropaneInstallation Code (CAN/CSA B-149.1). These codes andstandards and Zodiac® require that the heater be properlyvented as outlined in this manual. Other requirements alsoapply, such as provision of ample uncontaminated air forcombustion and ventilation.2.7 Indoor InstallationThe Hi-E2 can be located indoors when provided with“one-pipe” or “two-pipe” systems for combustion airand combustion product venting. A one-pipe installationhas only a vent pipe, and air for combustion must beprovided to the room the heater is located in. A two-pipesystem (sometimes referred to as “direct vent” or “sealedcombustion”) has a vent pipe plus a pipe bringing airdirectly to the heater's combustion system.Section 2.7.2 specifies requirements for provision ofcombustion and ventilation air for one-pipe installations.Section 2.7.3 covers two-pipe installation.An important consideration in selecting one (1) or two(2) pipe installation is the quality of the combustionair. Indoor air is sometimes contaminated with varioushousehold or pool sanitation chemicals which can causecorrosion in the heater combustion system. Unless theindoor air is known to be free of these materials, two (2)pipe installation is strongly recommended.2.7.1 Preparation of Heater For Indoor InstallationIf the Hi-E2 is to be installed indoors, its exhaust dischargegrille must be converted to an exhaust pipe configuration.
