Locate the 24 Volt wiring harness either coiled 
beneath the control box or shipped loose with the 
unit. The harness is used to make connections to the 
aquastat. It is also employed if a remote 24 Volt AC 
wall thermostat will be used. Connect the multi-wire 
24 volt wiring harness to the mating plug protruding 
beneath the control box, as applicable, and follow the 
detailed instructions on the wiring diagram affixed to 
the specific unit being installed. Insulated crimp-on 
connectors are provided at the end of every 
connection lead to facilitate connections/insulation. 

If 

an aquastat will be not be used, you must connect 
the ends (blue/orange) of the aquastat leads 
together to permanently complete the aquastat 
circuit.

 

7.

 

A 24 VAC water or steam valve output connector is 
also provided under the control box. A mating 
connector and 3 feet of wire leads are supplied to 
connect to a 24 VAC valve. The units can 
accommodate a normally-open NO or a normally-
closed NC valve. The NO/NC switch is located in the 
high voltage wiring compartment as a DIP switch on 
the electronic control board, and is factory set to NC. 
The setting can be changed to NO in the field by 
qualified service personnel. 

 

WARNING: 

The NO/NC conversion procedure 

involves exposure to high voltage electrical circuits in 
the control box in order to make the necessary change 
to the DIP switch, and must be performed by qualified 
service personnel. Failure to do so could result in 
property damage, personal injury or death. Disconnect 
electric power to the unit before servicing.

Locate the indoor air thermistor bulb at the end of the 
black thermistor wire with clamp coiled beneath the 
control box. The bulb and clamp must be relocated to 
the thermistor holder in the bottom of the heating 
subbase so it is sure to sense true return air 
temperature, and not air that has been heated by the 
heating coil. Use the clamp provided to secure the 
bulb in place. 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT:

 To avoid damaging the indoor 

thermistor wire, always remove the thermistor from the 
clamp holder before removing the chassis for service. 

 

IMPORTANT:

 Operating the unit without the filter in 

place can damage the unit, and void the warranty. 
Always remember to re-install the filter after servicing 
the chassis, or replacing/cleaning the filters.

The unit is now ready for operation, when supplied 
with power from the distribution panel and wired to a 
remote thermostat (if applicable). 

 
 
START-UP CHECKLIST

USER CONTROLS - GENERAL 

 
NFWC series is available with advanced-function 
electronic controls with membrane switch type keypad. 

ELECTRONIC CONTROLS

 

 
The chassis incorporating electronic controls is factory-
shipped with an active keypad control and display 
mounted directly to the control panel. The unit 
functions are controlled by the user by pressing the 
keys on the keypad, and reading the display. However, 
the unit also has the latent ability to be field-converted
