Section 3: Bracket Installation Instructions
Type 11 – L Bracket Installation
Step 1: L Brackets can be installed using either side of
the bracket depending upon installation requirements.
Units should be mounted at least 4" above the oor.
Measure required distance for bracket installation using
the brackets on the back side of the panel radiator as
a guide. The brackets should be installed at least 1
1/8" away from the inside of the bracket on the back
of the panel radiator to allow clearance for locking clip
installation (see Fig. 4). The brackets are identical, no
left or right. The U notches on the brackets should be
facing up, these notches are where the brackets on the
back of the panel radiator will rest.
Figure 4 – Bracket measurement to allow for clearance of
locking clips
Figure 8 – Final Assembly for illustration purposes not installed
on wall
Figure 5 – U Insert Installation
Figure 6 – Locking Clip installed on outside
of wall bracket
Figure 7 – Locking clip installed towards
inside of wall bracket
Step 2: Install brackets using wall anchors and bolts
supplied with the unit. Whenever possible, install on
wood studs.
Step 3: Install plastic “U” anti-vibration insert at the top
and bottom of the bracket where the unit will be resting.
(Refer to Fig 5).
Step 4: Place the brackets on the back of the panel
radiator into the notches on the wall bracket containing
the “U” insert.
Step 5: Attach locking clip with screw to the top bracket
on the panel radiator to lock the unit in place. The locking
clips need to be installed to the inside of the wall brackets.
One locking clip will be installed on the outside of the
wall bracket, but towards the inside of the unit (See
Figure 6 & right side of gure 8). The other clip will be
installed to the inside of the wall bracket and towards
the inside of the unit (see Figure 7 & left side of gure
8). Tighten down the screws to hold the clips in place.
See Figure 8 for nal assembly photo.

Types 21, 22 & 33 J Bracket Installation Instructions
Step 1: Wall brackets should be installed on wall
joists whenever possible. Mount the brackets on the
wall using the bolts and wall anchors provided. The
unit should be mounted at least 4" off the oor. The
brackets should be installed 4 ¾" in from the edge of
the unit on each side. For units over 70" a 3rd bracket
is required to be installed. The 3rd bracket should be
installed in the center of the unit.
Step 2: Set the unit on the brackets. The bracket height
adjustments can be made by pushing in the tab on
the plastic slide adjuster (see Figure 9). To adjust the
depth of the bracket (adjusts from 1 5/16" to 2 1/8"),
loosen the screw at the top of the bracket to slide the
hanger forward or back (see Figure 10). Be sure to set
the edge of the back panel into one of the notches in
the bottom of the bracket to insure the unit is stable.
Tighten the screw at the top of the bracket to secure
the unit in place (See Figure 11).

Section 4: Piping
Check that the unit is rmly in place. Piping to the unit
can be done using copper or pex pipe.
Choose a piping arrangement that is suitable for the
job. The unit has 6 possible connection points. Two
on each side and a bottom connection that can be
installed on either the left hand or right hand side as
the units are reversible (for all units except the Type
11). If piping from the bottom, remove the metal covers
and the o-rings (see g 13). Failure to remove the
o-ring will prohibit proper installation of accessories
and may cause leaking.
For a bottom piping arrangement, the supply is to the
inside of the unit, and the return to the outside (see
g 14). Should the unit get installed with the incorrect
piping arrangement, valves (part # 1016362) are
available to reverse the piping with little disruption.
The unit was supplied with 2 blind stops (drain plugs),
an air vent, and a thermostatic valve insert and cover.
For bottom piping arrangements, remove the
temporary plugs from the left and right hand side
lower ports and install the chrome drain plugs. The
thermostatic valve and insert must be installed on
the same side as the supply and return port located
at the bottom of the unit. If piping is on the bottom
left hand side, the thermostatic valve and insert
must be installed on the top left hand port. Failure to
install correctly will result in noise. Once the insert is
installed, a thermostatic head may be installed. If a
thermostatic head will not be installed, cover the insert
with the white plastic cover supplied with unit. The air
vent should be installed on the upper corner opposite
the valve insert. See gure 15 for recommended
placement of accessories for bottom piped units.
Once all the connections have been made, the air must
be purged from the system. This can be accomplished
using the coin air vent that was supplied with the unit.

Alternative Piping Arrangements
Below are the recommended alternative piping connections when not piping from the bottom. For alternative
piping arrangements not shown, please consult the factory.

Thermostatic Valve Settings
The thermostats purchased through Beacon Morris have multiple settings. Refer to the chart below for set points
in relation to the number on the valve. The snowake setting is a low ow / non-freeze setting. This will allow a
small amount of water ow to prevent the unit from freezing. If the thermostat is set at 0, no water will ow and
the unit will be off. Refer to gure 16 for the temperature ratings.
Section 8: Cleaning the Unit
The unit may be cleaned using a vacuum or long handled brush.
Never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products with chemicals as this may compromise the integrity of the
nish. The outside of the units can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge and soap. Thoroughly dry the
unit with a soft cloth.
