INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Verify power has been turned off before starting any work!
• The Com-Pak Bath can only be mounted with the element up. It cannot be mounted in the ceiling or
in the floor. For multiple heater wiring, see page 6. The Com-Pak Bath has a minimum clearance of
24" (61 cm) from the ceiling.
• For cleaner performance and longer heater life, install your heater 12 inches (30.5 cm) from the
floor.
• All models can be installed to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant. Check your state
and local requirements.
• A wall thermostat cannot be used with this heater.
• The wall can label arrows show the correct mounting orientation (arrows must point up).
Cut a hole in the wall next to a wall stud
STEP 1
If you haven't installed drywall yet, skip this step.
Locate or route electrical supply wires
STEP 2
Route the electrical supply wire from the circuit breaker to the heater location.
Remove a knockout from the wall can (best location is closest to heater wires) and attach the supply
wire with a cable clamp connector (not included) leaving a minimum of 6 inches (15.2 cm) wire lead
(See Figure 2).
Mount the wall can
STEP 3
If you haven't installed drywall yet, make sure the front of the wall can extends beyond the front edge of
the wall stud to match the drywall depth (See Figure 2).
If you already have drywall installed, place the can into the cutout so the front is flush with the drywall.
Fasten the wall can to the stud with two screws through holes provided in the wall can (See Figure 2).
As an option, the foam pad provided may be attached to the side of the wall can to square the wall can
to the stud.
