thermostattttt. The thermostat should be placed in the
same room as the heater, typically 5’ off the floor. Avoid
drafty areas or any area that may affect the accuracy of
the thermostat.
The thermostat should be connected to the
Katahdin using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with a
maximum length of 35 feet of wire.
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to the two
lower terminals on the terminal block located to the
right of the ON/OFF/TSTAT switch. Do not overtighten
the connections. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT
ANY OTHER WIRES. See Figure 20.
For the thermostat to function, the ON/OFF/T-STAT
switch must be in the T-STAT position, and the pilot light
must be running, as it is the power source for the
thermostat.
At the thermostat, the two wires should be con-
nected to the two connections screws on the thermo-
stat base plate per the manufacturer’s instructions.

the gas control valve of the insert.
Connect one receiver lead to the terminal la-
belled TH. Connect the other receiver lead to the
terminal labeled TH/TP. DO NOT DISCONNECT ANY
OTHER WIRES FROM THE VALVE, AND DO NOT OVER
TIGHTEN TERMINAL SCREWS.
