INSERT THE HEATER ASSEMBLY IN THE WALL CAN
Mount The Wall Can
STEP 1
Important:
1. Only for Model CS up to 1,500 Watts –
MAXIMUM.
2. Do not mount the heater in low
density fiberboard or false ceilings.
3. Models with a built-in thermostat are
not recommended.
Fasten the wall can to ceiling rafters on any
two sides (See Figure 6) with a minimum of
4 screws (not included). You may need to
install an additional rafter perpendicular to
your ceiling rafters.
The front edge of the wall
can must extend beyond the front edge of the
ceiling rafter(s) to match the drywall depth.
Route Supply Wires
STEP 2
Important:
Supply connections must use wires suitable for at least 167˚F (75˚C) in the ceiling.
Route the electrical supply wire from the circuit breaker to the wall thermostat, and then to the wall
can. Remove a knockout from the wall can and attach the supply wire with a cable clamp connector
(not included) leaving a minimum of 6 inches wire lead (See Figure 3).
Continue to STEPS 4 and 5 above.
