Selecting A Location For Your Heater:
DO NOT inst al l less t han 6” (15cm) f rom vert ical side
walls or open edge of door. This heat er must have an
unrest rict ed airf low. DO NOT select a locat ion where it
is l ikely t o be blocked by furnit ure, curt ains, et c. Be
sure t he locat ion select ed allows suf ficient space for t he
heat er as shown by Table 1. DO NOT locat e t his heat er
in an area where combust ible vapors, gases liquids, or
excessive lint , dust or moist ure is present .
The wire and breaker sizing chart will give a general rule
of inst al lat ion size. Consult an elect rician if you are not
knowledgeable about wiring codes.
Wire and Breaker Sizing: Table 2
WIRING: Branch Circuit Connection
1. Connect heat er only t o t he volt age, amperage and
frequency specif ied on t he nameplat e.
2. Wiring procedures and connect ions shall be in ac-
cordance wit h all Nat ional and local codes having
j urisdict ion.
3. Set t he bag cont aining t he grille and packet wit h
t wo (2) grille screws aside.
4. Loosen mount ing screw and remove squirrel cage

5. A knockout of 1/ 2 inch conduit size (7/ 8 inch /
2.2cm) is provided in t he back and side of t he heat er
for power t o ent er. Provide proper st rain relief con-
nect ors for your wire ent ering t he wallbox.
6. Inst all

sidewalls and 4” above f loor. The front edge of
wall can MUST extend 1/ 2” beyond finished wall
surface.
7. Secure wallbox t o t he 2 x 4 st uds using t he t wo (2)
holes on t he side of t he wallbox. Secure t o wall st ud
on opposit e side if required.
8. Connect supply wires, at t ach ground feed wire t o
t he green ground wire wit h wire nut s.
9. Reinst all heat er assembly int o wallbox wit h screw at
t op of int erior.
10. Inst all grille securely wit h screws provided in pack-
et . Do not over t ight en.
11. Test unit by t urning t hermost at up past room t em-
perat ure. You will see a puff of smoke as t he ele-
ment s are energized and t he f an t urns on. This is a
normal burn off of manufact uring lubricant s and will
dissipat e in 5 minut es.
