Installation Instructions

Part One

PLACEMENT: Install The Com-Pak Plus (Model C) vertically (recommended) or horizontally. Model C may be installed in the ceiling (for models up to 1500W maximum. See ceiling mount instructions.) The Com-Pak Twin Plus (Model CT) must be installed with the arrows in the wall can pointing upwards.

THERMOSTAT: A thermostat is required for models without a built-in thermostat. A Cadet Electronic Thermostat or Cadet Dual Diaphragm Thermostat is recommended for ultimate control and comfort.

IMPORTANT!

It is extremely important you verify that the electrical supply wires are the same voltage as the heater (i.e. 120 volt heater to 120 volt power supply and 240 volt heater to 240 volt power supply). If replacing an existing heater, check the labels of the old heater and

STEP 1 Mount The Wall Can

The C Series REQUIRES A MINIMUM distance of

6inches from adjacent surfaces and 41/2 inches from the floor (See Figure 4) and the CT Series REQUIRES A MINIMUM distance of 6 inches from adjacent surfaces and 41/2 inches from the floor (See Figure 5). However, Cadet RECOMMENDS 12 inches from all adjacent surfaces and 12 inches above the floor for longer and cleaner performance. Heaters must be spaced at least 3 feet apart.

Review the wall can label for correct direction (as noted by the UP arrows) before mounting the wall can in the opening. In the VERTICAL mounting position the elements of the heater assembly will be at the top, in the HORIZONTAL mounting position the elements of the heater assembly will be to the left.

Model C: Secure the wall can to the stud with

2 screws (See Figures 1 & 2). As an option, the rubber shim provided may be attached to side of wall can to square the wall can to the stud.

Model CT: Secure the wall can to studs on both sides

STEP 1 Cut Hole In Wall

Model C: Cut a hole 8 inches wide by 101/4 inches high next to wall stud. The C Series REQUIRES A MINIMUM distance of 6 inches from adjacent surfaces and 41/2 inches from the floor. However, Cadet RECOMMENDS 12 inches from all adjacent surfaces and 12 inches from the floor (See Figure 4).

Model CT: Cut a hole 145/8 inches wide by 10 inches high next to wall stud. The CT Series REQUIRES

A MINIMUM distance of 6 inches from adjacent surfaces and 41/2 inches from the floor. However, Cadet RECOMMENDS 12 inches from all adjacent surfaces and 12 inches from the floor (See Figure 5).

replace using the same voltage.

Hooking a 240 volt heater to a 120 volt power supply will drastically reduce the heater’s output.

Hooking a 120 volt heater to a 240 volt power supply will

STEP 2 Route Supply Wires

Route supply wire from circuit breaker to thermostat to wall can. For models with built-in thermostat, route supply wire from circuit breaker to wall can. Remove a knockout and attach the supply wire with a strain relief connector leaving 10 inches wire lead for later use. Connect supply ground wire to grounding pigtail in wall can (See Figure 3). Proceed to PART TWO.

Route supply wire from circuit breaker to thermostat to wall can. For models with built-in thermostat, route supply wire from circuit breaker to wall can. Remove a knockout and attach the supply wire with a strain relief connector leaving 10 inches wire lead for later use (See Figure 3). Connect supply ground wire to grounding pigtail in wall can.

STEP 3 Mount Wall Can

Review the wall can label for correct direction (as noted by the UP arrows) before mounting the wall can in the opening. In the VERTICAL mounting position the elements of the heater assembly will be at the top, in the HORIZONTAL mounting position the elements of the heater assembly will be to the left.

Insert wall can into opening. Keeping wall can flush with wall, secure Model C to wall stud with 2 screws and Model CT to both wall studs with 4 screws. Proceed to PART TWO.
