SECTION 6: DUCT HEATER INSTALLATION
6.1 General
To connect the inlet and outlet ducts to the heater,
Duct-Mate or similar flanges may be slid over the
duct connector flanges supplied on the unit and
secured with screws. The connection to the duct
then can be made using the Duct-Mate clips. The
ducts must have removable access panels
upstream and downstream of the heater. These
panels must be of appropriate size and placement
so that smoke or reflected light could be observed to
indicate the presence of leaks in the heat
exchanger. Covers for these openings should be
sealed to prevent leakage.

Any transition into the inlet of the heater should be
smooth, with a taper of no more than 15 degrees. If
elbows are required, they should be of either broad
radius or fitted with properly designed air turns.
Consult a professional to ensure air turns are
properly designed.

The heater must be installed on the positive
pressure side of the circulating air blower. Air flow
through the heater must be as shown
