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 more:
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.
Hi Guys,
I'd missed that. Thank you!

2 inches or 2 feet?
2 inches as the manual specifies.
Hi Ed,
Thank you!
What page did you find that on? I must be blind. I read over the entire thing. :'(
