1. Install HotPod™ in horizontal position ONLY.
2. Select a 14" (35.6 cm) section of duct that is a MINIMUM of 4
feet (122 cm) from outlet register.
• Select section so that you can insert male crimped end into
inlet side of the HotPod™.

1. Remove wiring cover. Following all local codes, connect 120
VAC, 15 amp dedicated circuit. Provide strain relief for all
wiring.
A. Black/hot wire to "L1 in" terminal.

and White HotPod™ wires are on "HEATER NEUTL."
C. Green or ground wire to green housing ground screw.
2. Connect thermostat wire to circuit board.

1. Apply power to the 120 VAC circuit.
2. Turn room thermostat to maximum heat. Check for
HotPod™ Fan and Heater operation.
• If there is no heat output at the outlet register, remove the
120 VAC power immediately. Re-check all connections in
the HotPod electrical enclosure.
• Have a qualified electrician use volt-ohmmeter to check
voltage supply from 120 VAC circuit.
Note: You may notice a slight odor the first time you use HotPod™.
This is normal as the heat oxidizes coatings used to protect metal
surfaces. Odor will dissipate after several uses.
