Installation With A Hot Air System

Electrical interconnection of the BH60 to an existing heat pump, or fuel-fired hot air furnace:

Interconnection with a heat pump will generally require a second thermostat to be installed. It is recommended that a new electronic thermostat be installed as close to the existing thermostat as possible. Installing within one foot of the existing thermostat is recommended for ease of interconnection and similar temperature sensing ability.

If programmability is desired, both thermostats should have this capability. If only the new thermostat is programmable, you’ll need to keep the existing thermostat set several degrees below the lowest programmed temperature setting of the new thermostat. NOTE: In this configuration, if the BH60 cannot maintain the desired thermostat setting, the room will be allowed to cool to the lower set point of the existing thermostat before allowing the heat pump to operate.

Special note: Even if the heat pump has a multi-stage thermostat, it cannot be re-wired to make the first stage control the BH60, and the second stage control the heat pump. All multi-stage heat pump thermostats are interconnected so that the compressor unit and/or the changeover solenoid activate with the first stage only.

Controlling the existing furnace fan during overheat situation.

Following the wiring diagram on the next page, you will need to supply and install a piece of 18/3 Thermostat wire between the low-voltage control terminal strip on the upper left-hand side of the BH60’s control cover, to the low-voltage control of the existing furnace.

Note: Some systems may have external terminals and some may have them enclosed within the unit. If the connections to the exisitng system need to be made internally, be sure to use the proper protective grommet or connector where passing through the cabinet of the existing unit.

If the wiring used does not match the colorings listed, follow the corresponding numbers on the terminal strips to ensure proper connection.

Step 1. Disconnect electrical power to the existing heating system.

Step 2. Install the above mentioned thermostat wire between the two systems Step 3. Connect the three (3) wires to the BH60 control terminal strip as indicated.

Step 4. Remove the green wire which comes from the exisiting thermostat and connects to the terminal marked “G” on the existing system and splice it to the green (or #1) wire from the BH60.

Step 5. Connect the white wire (or #5) from the BH60 to the “G” terminal of the existing system. This white wire should be the only wire connected to “G”.

Step 6. Now, the red (#3) wire from the BH60 should be added to the “R” terminal of the existing system. Do not remove or replace any existing wires from “R”, just add this one to them.

Restore power to the existing system only. Using the existing thermostat, increase the setting to verify that the system works as it did prior to the interconnection. Increase and decrease the thermostat a few times to verify proper reaction. In the case of a heat pump system, be sure the outdoor compressor unit is also cycling. Notice: Most compressors have a built in lockout timer (usually 5 minutes) so you may need to wait between thermostat adjustments to verify proper operation.

Once you are certain that nothing changed with the operation of the existing system, turn the existing system’s thermostat down far enough that it won’t come on during the test. Connect power to the BH60, and turn on the circuit breaker on the front of the unit. With the control in the “OFF” position, turn the feed adjuster knob to “Test”. When the OVERHEAT SAFETY ZONE light illuminates, the fan on the existing system should come on. Be sure that the fan is the only thing on. There should be no power to the compressor or the oil or gas burner.
