Electrical Wiring
A. Fireplace
B. Thermostat Installation
The kit comes with a programmable wall thermostat
(C1)
and 25 ft. of thermostat wire
(C2)
. If you need to run more
than 25 ft. make sure you use a continuous strand of 18 to
22 gauge thermostat wire. For optimum performance your
thermostat should be:
•
Mounted on an inside wall, approximately 5 ft. above
the floor
• Do not locate where there is poor air circulation such
as in a corner, alcove, behind doors, bookcase or
other objects
•
Located away from drafts, direct sunlight, above a
lamp, television, radiator, a wall next to a window, or
direct heat from the appliance
• Avoid damp environments as this can lead to corrosion
that may shorten thermostat life
• If painting or construction work around, cover the
thermostat completely or wait until work is complete
before installation.
