Having just spent the better part of the last 2 weeks working around the 
heating contractors at our new shop, I feel the need to comment on this one.  
Our 90% efficient up-flow gas furnaces had to be elevated so that the blower 
motors were a minimum of 18" above the floor.  This placed the electronic 
ignition and burners roughly 48" above the floor, which the code says is 
adequate for avoiding the potential of explosions from autos in close priximity 
to the furnaces.  I hope they're right!
