WIRING DIAGRAMS

Caution: Ensure that the wires do 
not touch any hot surfaces and are 
away from sharp edges.

CAUTION:   Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.

INSTALLATION

No electrical power supply is required for the 
gas control to operate. 120 Volt AC power is 
needed for the fan switch and blower. The fan 
can be hard wired if desired. A terminal block 
is provided on the left hand side of the unit. 

A three wire power cord can also be used and 
plugged into a suitable receptacle.

(Do not cut the ground terminal off under 
any circumstances.)
