Default Spacing of wood furniture to a furnace

Hi All,

We are working on altering our floor plan to accommodate
a exterior was direct vent gas furnace.

Does anyone know the proper spacing of wood furniture
from a gas furnace such the the heat would not damage
the wood?

If it helps, this is the furnace in question (not
yet installed):

Many thanks,

On the datasheet you supplied, it says it needs a min of 2" side
clearance from any adjacent walls. The installation manual doesn't
say anything mo

From that, I'd say 2" would be all you need for wood furniture too.

I'd agree with that. Wood burning stoves that can be 600 degrees
require 36" clearance, but insulated furnaces barely reach 100 degrees.

2 inches or 2 feet?



2 inches as the manual specifies.
