1.0 Installation instructions
Placement of this wall switch may affect performance or accuracy of the automatic (thermostat) control. An assessment of the space should be done prior to installation for optimal performance. See the installation instructions section I for recommendations.
NOTE: The electrical junction box provided with the fireplace must be wired with 110 VAC before installing this kit. See owners manual for details.
All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician and shall be in compliance with local codes and with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFGA No. 70- current (in the United States), or with the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRIC CODE (in Canada).
WARNING
Shock Hazard
Do not provide any power to this unit until all wiring is completed. Failure to do so may destroy parts of this device and render it unusable, and may lead to possible electrical shock.
Fire Hazard
Modification of any parts or installation of damaged components will void the warranty, and you may possibly cause a fire hazard.
1.1 Determine location
Determine the location for the wall switch. The chosen location should provide an accessible location in the same space as the gas fireplace. Never place this unit in a separate room. The control wire supplied with this switch is 33 ft (10M) in length. The distance from the fireplace to the switch may be lengthened provided that the wire used never exceeds 50 ft, and that the distance from the fireplace to the switch never exceeds 30 ft.
The switch should be mounted into a listed electrical junc- tion box. The junction box should be dedicated to this wall switch. Never install this wall switch into a junction box that is shared with other electrical service or devices. If possible, install this unit on an interior wall of the residence at a recommended height of 5 ft from the flooring. Should the switch be installed on an exterior wall, be certain wall insulation is kept intact and not damaged or dislodged dur- ing the installation of the electrical junction box.
For exterior wall installations, it is recommended that the junction box be sealed with caulking material. This will minimize heat loss through this location and improve the accuracy of the automatic (thermostat) operation.
