lamps, televisions, radios or air streams
from registers. Refer to instructions packed
with the thermostat for “heater” selection or
adjustment.
The following is a list of recommended
thermostats to be used with or without an
economizer:
B. HOOK-UP
To wire unit, refer to the following hook-
up diagram.
Refer to Figures 2 and 21 for location of
wiring entrances.
Wiring to be done in the field between
the unit and devices not attached to the
unit, or between separate devices which
are field installed and located, shall
conform with the temperature limitation
for Type T wire [63°F rise (35°C)] when
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
C. INTERNAL WIRING
A diagram of the internal wiring of this unit
is located on the inside of control access
panel and in this manual. If any of the
original wire as supplied with the
appliance must be replaced, the wire
gauge and insulation must be same as
original wiring.
Transformer is factory wired for 230 volts
on 208/230 volt models and must be
changed for 208 volt applications. See
unit wiring diagram for 208 volt wiring.
D. THERMOSTAT
The room thermostat must be compatible
with the spark ignition control on the unit.
Generally, all thermostats that are not of
the “current robbing” type are compatible
with the integrated furnace control. The low
voltage wiring should be sized as shown in
Table 7.
Install the room thermostat in accordance
with the instruction sheet packed in the box
with the thermostat. Run the thermostat
lead wires through control entry opening
(Figure 2 or Figure 21) and connect to the
low voltage thermostat connections (see
wiring diagram). Never install the
thermostat on an outside wall or where it
will be influenced by drafts, concealed hot
or cold water pipes or ducts, lighting
fixtures, radiation from fireplace, sun rays,
