Remove Existing Heater
STEP 1
A. WARNING! Before removing grill, turn the electrical power off at the electrical panel board (circuit breaker or fuse box). Lock or tag
the panel board door to prevent someone from accidentally turning the power on while you are working on the heater. Failure to do so
could result in serious electrical shock, burns, or possible death.
B. It is important that you verify power has been turned off and no power is going to the heater before proceeding. Circuit breakers are
often not marked correctly and turning the wrong breaker off could mean electricity is flowing to the heater, even if the heater does not
appear to be working. If you are uncomfortable working with electrical appliances, unable to follow these guidelines, or do not have the
necessary equipment, consult a qualified electrician.
C. Once you verify the power has been turned off correctly, proceed to next step.
D. Remove screws and take off grill.
E. Separate supply wire and lead wire connections.
Proceed to PART TWO.

STEP 1
Install Grill Frame and Grill
STEP 2
Remove protective film from frame and grill before installing. Place grill frame outside top and bottom flanges of the heater assembly.
Place grill over frame and secure with the four finishing washers and four #10 x 1½ inch Phillips oval head sheet metal screws (See
Figure 4). Start all four screws before tightening (Note: Over tightening screws may damage grill).
Install spring clips on wall can edge, two at the top and two at the bottom (See Figure 4). Lay heater assembly on its front surface and
position so rocker switch will be installed at bottom of wall can (See Figure 5). Make the connection of the supply wires to the lead wires
from the rocker switch. Position the heater assembly to fit adapter plate to the surface of the wall can (See Figure 4). Be sure all lead
wires are inside the wall can before securing heater assembly. (Use the four #10 32 x ½ inch machine screws; two at top and two at
bottom.)
