Installation Choosing A Location For The Thermostat - Control M6001A Instruction Manual

Choosing a Location for the Thermostat
When replacing an existing thermostat, the new thermostat should be mounted on the existing metal electrical box
that controls your heater.
Safety Note: Ensure the thermostat is not near heat sensitive/flammable material, such as exposed wood, wallpaper,
loose papers, or other fire hazards. The normal surface temperature of the operating thermostat is 45-55ºC (113-131ºF).
The thermostat is rated to operate safely at these temperatures but should be kept away from fire hazards.
For NEW home installation, choose the location of the metal electrical box carefully.
It SHOULD BE MOUNTED:
・Approximately 5' (1.5 m) from the floor.
・Near or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside partitioning wall.
・On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
It SHOULD NOT BE MOUNTED:
・Near temperature-radiating objects that may cause false readings.
(For example: near a window, next to a door leading outside, or near the heat from a lamp,
direct sunlight or a fireplace.)
・Near concealed pipes and chimneys.
・In areas with poor air circulation. (For example behind a door or in an alcove.)
