It is ALWAYS recommended to order your unit with or without the thermostat for your particular application. If your unit
has been ordered incorrectly please contact the factory and we can exchange it for the proper unit. Adding a built-in
thermostat after installation is complicated and could result in creating wiring errors and shorting out this unit.
Instructions for wall mount heater
It is extremely important to verify the electrical power supply is the same voltage as the heater you are installing. 240 and
120 Volt heaters are not interchangeable. Powering a 240 Volt unit with 120 Volt supply wires will reduce the heater's output
by approximately 75%. Powering a 120 Volt unit with 240 Volt supply wires will destroy the heater and voids all warranties.
NOTICE: For heaters without built-in thermostats - using remote or wall mounted thermostats. The power must be brought to
the heater first (not to the wall mounted or remote thermostat). This is necessary to provide power for the fan to cool down the
element after the thermostat has opened. Use only a single pole line voltage wall thermostat or switch to control this heater.
CAUTION: Disconnect the circuit breaker supplying the heater before attempting installation, maintenance, or repairs.
Lock or tag circuit breaker panel door. Failure to do so could result in serious electrical shock, burns, or possible
death.
1. Remove heater contents from carton and check for
shipping damage.
2. Remove grill by loosening the four mounting screws along the
sides of the front panel.
3. Detach interior assembly from the wall can by removing the four
screws along each side of the interior panel. Lift and tilt assembly
away from the top of the wall can. Free the bottom edge from the
metal lip inside the wall can. Place the interior assembly in a safe
location until the wall can is mounted.
4. Remove one knockout from the wall can and thread supply wires
through the hole. Use an approved cable connector to prevent
wires from chafing. Connect groundwire to green pigtail.
5. Mount heater wall can on wall studs a minimum of 6" from side
wall and 10" from floor, using the holes provided in the sides of
the box. The face of the box should be flush with the finished
wall. Installation of the interior and grill to the wallbox cover an
approximate 5/8" periphery along the outer area of the opening.
6. After wall can is secured interior assembly leads may be attached supply wires
and interior secured to wall can. NOTE: The LPW wall heater is equipped with
two steel elements having a combined capacity of 2750 Watts. The heater is
factory wired at 2750 Watts. To adjust the heater for lower wattages remove
the appropriate colored wire according to the illustration and wattage diagram
provided on the back side of this sheet. Be sure to insulate and secure the
unused lead.
7. Reinstall interior assembly on wallbox using screws provided.
8. Mount grill to interior with screws provided.
