ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
A 15 amp, 120 Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a prop-
erly grounded outlet is required. Preferably,
the heater will be on a dedicated circuit as
other appliances on the same circuit may
cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to
blow when the heater is in operation. Plan the
installation to avoid the use of an extension
cord. Extension cords are for temporary use
only. If an extension cord must be used, it must
be UL/CSA certified, rated at 15A (1900W),
125V maximum with 14 AWG minimum and
constructed of two current carrying conductors
with ground. A heavy duty extension cord with
the shortest length possible for the connec-
tion is recommended and must not be longer
than 50 ft. (15.2 m). Do not coil or cover the
extension cord.
Electrical outlet wiring must
comply with local building codes
and other applicable regulations
to reduce the risk of fire, electri-
cal shock and injury to persons.
Do not use this heater if any
part of it has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified ser-
vice technician to inspect the
fireplace and replace any part
of the electrical system which
has been under water.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord
has a plug as shown at A in Figure 25. An
adapter as shown at C is available for con-
necting three-blade grounding-type plugs to
two-slot receptacles. The green grounding
lug extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground such as
a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter
should not be used if a three-slot grounded
receptacle is available.
