The space needs a permanent fresh-air vent. On sailboats it should face fore or aft. For a port or starboard-facing install, the fuel valve can be mounted on the side so fuel keeps flowing at heel angles up to 15 degrees. Chimney parts and the fuel supply are sold separately and depend on your layout; Dickinson's diesel installation and operating manual is the authority for clearances, fuel feed height and chimney details. We recommend installation by a qualified marine technician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDickinson designs this heater for marine installation. If you plan to install it in a cabin, tiny home or other structure, confirm the requirements with your local code official and installer before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Dickinson Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDickinson has built heating and cooking appliances for boats since 1932.
