PLAN THE INSTALLATION
This heater is intended to be used to supply supplemental heat
from a wall location in new or existing construction.
Choose a location where edge of heater will be at least 12" from
the floor or any adjacent vertical surface.
The heater can be operated using its built-in thermostat or a re-
mote thermostat (Choose either the Model 86W Line-Voltage ther-
mostat or use the Model 82 Transfomer/Relay with an appropriate
low-voltage thermostat.). The Model 85 Kit is available for surface-
mount applications. Purchase these accessories separately.
Plan to supply the heater with proper line voltage and appropriate
power cable.
NOTE: Power can be tapped from a nearby circuit depending on
the heater wattage required and the amperage rating of the circuit.
Heater can be converted to half-wattage to avoid overloading such
circuits.
