How do I install for new construction?
Mount The Wall Can
STEP 1
REQUIRED MINIMUM distance of 6 inches from adjacent surfac-
es and 4-1/2 inches from the floor (See Figure 4). However, Cadet
RECOMMENDS 12 inches from adjacent surfaces and floor for
longer and cleaner performance. Heaters must be spaced at least
3 feet apart.
Secure the wall can to the stud with 2 screws (See Figures 1 & 2).
As an option, the rubber shim provided may be attached to side of
wall can to square the wall can to the stud.
Route Supply Wires
STEP 2
Route supply wire from the circuit breaker, to the heater. Remove
a knockout from the wall can and attach the supply wire with a
strain relief connector (not included) leaving a minimum of 6 inch-
es wire lead for later use. Connect supply ground wire to ground-
ing screw in wall can (See Figure 3).
Proceed to PART TWO.
