Electrical Information

A. Recommendation for Wire
This appliance requires 110-120 VAC be wired to the
junction box either for use of optional accessories (stand-
ing pilot ignition) or for proper operation of the appliance
(Intellifi re ignition). Refer to Figure 10.1 to determine if the
appliance uses an Intellifi re ignition system or Standing
Pilot ignition system.
Open the control access panel to view wiring system and
gas valve. If this appliance has a red or black ignitor but-
ton (as noted in Figure 10.1) this appliance has a Stand-
ing Pilot ignition system. If there is no red or black ignitor
button, this appliance has an Intellifi re ignition system.

B. Connecting to the Appliance
WARNING
Wire 110V to electrical junction box.
Do NOT wire 110V to valve.
Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.
• Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt valves.
• Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lockout
and may cause explosion.

• This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall
mounted thermostat and/or a remote control.
• If using thermostat use one compatible with a millivolt
gas valve system.
• Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individual
thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation of
appliance.
• Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from ignition
system to the wall switch and thermostat.
• Keep wire lengths short as possible by removing any
excess wire length.
• Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared
within the same wall box.
Optional Accessories Requirements
Wiring for optional accessories should be done now to
avoid reconstruction.
C. Standing Pilot Ignition System Wiring
• This standing pilot ignition system wiring does not
require a 110 VAC supply to operate.
• It is recommended that a 110 VAC junction box be
installed for use with a fan or remote control. (See Figure
10.2 for junction box wiring).
CAUTION
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
WARNING
Shock hazard.
• Replace damaged wire with type 105º C rated
wire.
• Wire must have high temperature insulation.
