Methods For Attaching Mounting Bracket To Wall
Use only the last hole on each end of mounting bracket to attach bracket to wall. Attach mounting bracket to a
wall only in one of two ways:
1.
Attaching to wall stud: This method provides the strongest hold. Insert mounting screws through mounting
bracket and into wall studs.
2.
Attaching to wall anchor: This method allows you to attach mounting bracket to hollow walls (wall areas
between studs) or to solid walls (concrete or masonry).
3.
Decide which method better suits your needs. Either method will provide a secure hold for the mounting bracket.
Marking Screw Locations
1.
Tape mounting bracket to wall where heater will be located. Make sure
mounting bracket is level.
WARNING: Maintain minimum clearances shown in Figure 4. If you
can, provide greater clearances from floor and joining wall.
2.
Mark screw locations on wall (see Figure 7).
Note: Mark only last hole on each end of mounting bracket. Insert
mounting screws through these holes only.
3.
Remove tape and mounting bracket from wall.

For attaching mounting bracket to hollow walls (wall areas between studs) or
solid walls (concrete or masonry):

Drill holes at marked locations using 5/16-inch drill bit. For solid walls
(concrete or masonry), drill at least 1 inch deep.
2.

thick) or solid walls, do not pop open wings.
