Section 5, Installing Fan Heaters
When the heater unit comes on, the fan draws ambient air from the
interior, blows it through the heater coil and back into the interior
through a vent. There must be an input and output vent for each
fan unit.
Features
•
ITR heater fans are supplied with a built-in aquastat which
prevents fan operation until the system has reached
minimum operating temperature. The aquastat can be
deleted to meet particular installation requirements, but it is
recommended that all systems be installed with the air fan
aquastat. Figure 5-1 shows how to wire-up the aquastat in a
fan.

If a “passive” radiant heat system is desired (i.e. baseboard
or fin and tube configurations), consult ITR for recommended
installation procedures and design.
