3.3.1 NECESSARY COMPONENTS FOR CADDY WOOD/ELECTRIC
COMBINATION FURNACE
To use the configuration of the Caddy wood/electric furnace you have to
assemble the blower assembly (PA08568), sold separately. The assembly
instructions are in the instruction manual (Step 1 to 5) supplied with the blower
assembly kit.
3.3.2 INTRODUCTION
The optional “electric element 15, 18 or 20 kW (PA01000 – PA01050 and
PA01100)” contain all the necessary components to assemble this configuration.
WARNING
USE WIRES SUITABLE FOR 75 °C OR MORE.
Your electric unit includes a protection device against overheating; that is a
manual reset L-170 disc control.
In some first generation furnaces, the L-200 automatic reset heat sensor is
absent and a second fan limit control is included that is used for the same
purpose. Remove the knock-out located on the left side of the furnace near the
electric unit, insert the probe in the hole, secure the fan limit control to the
furnace and connect the cable (14-2) inside the electric unit at the same location
as the L-200 on the diagram.
3.3.3 APPLIANCE INSTALLATION

air inlet (see details in Section 2.12.)
The furnace must be positioned so that the connector is as short as possible.
Minimize the use of 90
o
elbows.
The owner must ensure a proper installation to allow a safe operation of
the appliance.
