INSTALLATION
Hardware needed
You will also need the following hardware, which can be purchased from your local hardware
store or electrical supply store:
Electric wire in the adequate gauge and length for your application
Proper size fuse or breaker for your heater’s amperage
Proper wire connectors for your application
Fasteners appropriate for your application that are strong enough to hold the unit
Mounting the Bracket
Refer to Figures 5a and 5b.
1.
Locate a wood stud in the wood ceiling joist. If you cannot locate a wood stud, you must
install a wood piece on the ceiling as this heater must be securely fastened.
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the heating unit by loosening bracket screws with a
wrench and slipping the handle off over the screw heads.
3. Place a washer on screws before inserting through the holes in the mounting bracket and
screw them securely into a ceiling joist.
NOTE: If you want to swivel the heater either to the right or left, adding a washer to both sides
of the bracket is recommended. A longer lag bolt (not included) may be required to properly
secure the unit. See Figure 5a.
