ELECTRICAL HOOKUP FOR 

OPTIONAL bLOWER ACCESSORY

Before  blower  accessory  can  be  operated, 

appliance outlet box must be properly con-

nected to a standard 120 VAC power source. 

This must be done when appliance is origi-

nally installed. Refer to 

Wiring Diagrams

 on 

page 33.
An outlet box with two receptacles has been 

supplied for your convenience and is located 

on  the  lower  right  side  of  appliance  (see 

Figure  37,  page  22).  The  variable  speed 

controller  is  mounted  on  a  magnetic  base 

and may be positioned anywhere within an 

accessible distance behind louvered opening 

(see Figure 36).

WALL SWITCH INSTALLATION

Since  the  (V)DVF36TPNEA/TSTEA  series 

uses  a  24  VAC  current  supplied  from  a 

transformer mounted on the ignition module 

and is prewired for easy connection to a wall 

switch (see Figure 34). The (V)DVF36TPNA/

TSTA models use a self generated millivolt 

current  that  allows  you  to  activate  the  gas 

control valve directly without the use of normal 

household  electricity  (see  Figure  35).  Both 

versions are supplied with a wall switch kit 

for ready connection and mounting.

 WARNING: Do not wire re-

mote wall switch to main power 

supply  (Standard  120v  house

-

hold current).

1.  To  remove  louvers,  simultaneously  pull 

both top end spring latches towards center 

of  appliance  until  they  are  disengaged 

from  locating  holes.  Repeat  for  bottom 

spring latches and pull louvers outward. 

Reverse procedure to install louvers back 

onto appliance (see Figure 36).

2.  Connect 18 gauge wires from wall switch 

to  gas  control  valve  terminals  marked 

TH and TPTH or to ignition module using 

pigtails and wire nut connectors supplied 

with appliance.
