The heater may have some stickers saying how much clearance is needed. The
minimum is usually 12" or so. Check the owners manual or check to see if
there is one on line.
Next is service, You must have access for service to filters, burners, etc.
Since you will be paying for service by the hour, make it easy for the tech
and your wallet.
