14. ELECTRICAL AND THERMOSTAT WIRING (WIRING DIAGRAMS PAGE 31 & 32)
NOTICE
Appliance and control wiring must be in accordance with all applicable local codes. The total
load of all heaters must be considered in determining the required contact rating of the con-
trolling thermostat or switch. Each tube heater requires 120V, 60 HZ electrical power sized for
145VA. The heater includes a 24V/120V relay switch and can be controlled by a 24V Thermo-
stat, a TruTemp Thermostat, a line voltage Thermostat or by an "ON/OFF" switch. Maximum
power flow for internal 24V burner components is 21VA.
A maximum night set-back of 9°F (5°C) is recommended for optimum economy and comfort.
To maintain satisfactory comfort levels do not turn off the heating system over night/weekends.
15. HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS - also refer to chart in Section 27
When this appliance is installed above the altitude stipulated below for the USA or Canada, the
input must be de-rated by 4% for each 1000 ft above the altitude listed . If your local utility
supplies gas with a de-rated heat content, no orifice change is required in the heater . If
the gas supply is not de-rated, the orifice must be changed according to the chart in Section
27. Check with your local utility regarding the gas supply and the de-rating of this appliance.
USA: The factory installed orifice for this appliance is approved for altitudes zero to 2000
feet above sea level. When installed above 2000 feet, refer to Section 27.
Canada: The factory installed orifice for this appliance is approved for altitudes zero to
4500 feet above sea level. When installed above 4500 feet, refer to Section 27.
16. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to the lighting instructions label on the outside of the burner housing. If the unit locks out
on safety, main power to the unit must be manually interrupted for a 30 second reset period
before the heater can be restarted.
NOTE: On initial installation, the unit may lock out on safety owing to the length of time
required to bleed air from the gas piping system.
17. RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE
Improper adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property dam-
age, injury or death. This heater must be installed and serviced only by a trained
gas service technician.
1. Inspect the entire heater system, venting, and gas supply connections at least annually
prior to the heating season. Replace worn parts and repair deficiencies.
2. Check the inlet air opening and the blower periodically, cleaning off any lint or foreign
matter. It is important that the flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be ob-
structed.
3. Lubricate Blower motor, by adding several drops of oil to oil ports located on the left
hand side of the motor.
