Methods For Attaching Mounting Bracket To Wall

Only use last hole on each end of mounting bracket to attach bracket to wall. Attach mounting bracket to wall in one of two ways

1.Attaching to wall stud

2.Attaching to wall anchor

Attaching to wall stud: This method pro- vides the strongest hold. Insert mounting screws through mounting bracket and into wall studs.

Attaching to wall anchor: This method allows you to attach mounting bracket to hollow walls (wall areas between studs) or to solid walls (concrete or masonry).

Decide which method better suits your needs. Either method will provide a secure hold for the mounting bracket.

Marking Screw Locations

1.Tape mounting bracket to wall where heater will be located. Make sure mounting bracket is level.

WARNING: Maintain minimum clearances shown in Figure 7. If you can, provide greater clear- ances from floor and joining wall.

2.Mark screw locations on wall (see Figure 7).

Note: Only mark last hole on each end of mounting bracket. Insert mounting screws through these holes only.

3.Remove tape and mounting bracket from wall.

Attaching to Wall Stud Method

For attaching mounting bracket to wall studs

1.Drill holes at marked locations using 9/64" drill bit.

2.Place mounting bracket onto wall. Line up last hole on each end of bracket with holes drilled in wall.

3.Insert mounting screws through bracket and into wall studs.

4.Tighten screws until mounting bracket is firmly fastened to wall studs.

Attaching to Wall Anchor Method

For attaching mounting bracket to hollow walls (wall areas between studs) or solid walls (concrete or masonry).

1.Drill holes at marked locations using 5/16" drill bit. For solid walls (concrete or masonry), drill at least 1" deep.

2.Fold wall anchor as shown in Figure 8.

3.Insert wall anchor (wings first) into hole. Tap anchor flush to wall.

4.For thin walls (1/2" or less), insert red key into wall anchor. Push red key to “pop” open anchor wings (see Figure 9). IMPORTANT: Do not hammer key! For thick walls (over 1/2" thick) or solid walls, do not pop open wings.

5.Place mounting bracket onto wall. Line up last hole on each end of bracket with wall anchors.

6.Insert mounting screws through bracket and into wall anchors.

7.Tighten screws until mounting bracket is firmly fastened to wall.

Installing Bottom Mounting Screws

1.Locate bottom mounting hole. This hole is near the bottom on the back panel of heater (see Figure 11).

2.Mark screw location on wall.

3.Remove heater from mounting bracket.

4.If installing bottom mounting screw into hollow or solid wall, install wall anchor. Follow steps 1 through 4 under Attaching To Wall Anchor Method. If installing bottom mounting screw into wall stud, drill hole at marked location using 9/64" drill bit.

5.Replace heater onto mounting bracket.

6.Place spacer between bottom mount- ing hole and wall anchor or drilled hole.

7.Hold spacer in place with one hand. With other hand, insert mounting screw through bottom mounting hole and spacer. Place tip of screw in opening of wall anchor or drilled hole.

8.Tighten screw until heater is firmly se- cured to wall. Do not over tighten. Note: Do not replace front panel at this time. Replace front panel after making gas connections and checking for leaks (see page 10).
