Refer to the brood heater’s burner box hinged access
panel, or refer to Start-up instructions in this manual to
determine if your brood heater has a single or two stage
gas control.
When connecting a thermostat or building controller to the
burner box, route the wiring through the watertight con-
nector near the power cord after removing the connector’s
plug. See Fig.14. If the connector does not completley
seal around the wiring after tightening, apply silicone at
the wire entry of the connector.
All interconnecting thermostat wiring must
be at least 18 gauge to prevent voltage
drop. Ensure the terminal marked W on the
ignition control receives 24 VAC from the
thermostat or building controller.
