1. Unpack the heater from the carton.
2. Determine the correct mounting height for the heater.
The bottom of the heater should be mounted a minimum
of 8" (20.3 cm) from the floor. The recess box is designed
so that it can be mounted between two studs within the
wall.
3. The recess box requires an opening in the wall 13.5"
(34.5 cm) high by 8 3/8" (21.5 cm) wide (see Figure
1). The depth of the opening must be 3 3/4" (9.5 cm)
minimum, measured from finished wall surface.
!
NOTE: The sides of the recess box are marked with
guidelines to allow for ½" and ⅝" drywall thickness. When
installing the recess box before installing drywall, use the
depth guidelines to mount the box at the appropriate depth
for drywall thickness, and proper grille installation.
4. Remove appropriate electrical knockout and secure sup-
ply wire using an approved strain relief connector, leav-
ing 6" (15.2 cm) of wire leads in the recess box. (Figure
1)
!
NOTE: It is only necessary to remove the knockout that
will feed the power supply wiring, keeping in mind the heater
mounting location and supply wire location on the wall.
5. The recess box can be secured using the flanges at the
top and bottom or from the inside into surrounding studs.
Ensure that the recess box is oriented so that the knock-
outs are located at the bottom and the flanges are flush
with the finished wall.
6. Proceed to the wiring instructions.
