INSTALLATION

SELECT THERMOSTAT LOCATION

Proper location insures that the thermostat will provide a comfortable home temperature. Observe the following general rules when selecting a location:

1.Locate thermostat about 5 ft. above the floor.

2.Install thermostat on a partitioning wall, not on an outside wall.

3.Never expose thermostat to direct light from lamps, sun, fireplaces or any temperature radiating equip- ment.

4.Avoid locations close to windows, adjoining outside walls, or doors that lead outside.

5.Avoid locations close to air registers or in the direct path of air from them.

6.Make sure there are no pipes or duct work in that part of the wall chosen for the thermostat location.

7.Never locate thermostat in a room that is warmer or cooler than the rest of the home, such as the kitchen.

8.Avoid locations with poor air circulation, such as be- hind doors or in alcoves.

9.The living or dining room is normally a good location, provided there is no cooking range or refrigerator on opposite side of wall.

ROUTE WIRES TO LOCATION

1.If an old thermostat is being replaced and is in a satisfactory location, and the wiring appears to be in good condition, use existing wiring. If in doubt, rewire.

2.If a new location is chosen or if this is a new installation, thermostat wire must first be run to the location se- lected. All wiring must conform with local and national electrical codes and ordinances.

3.Probe for obstructions in partition before drilling 1⁄2” hole in wall at selected location. Take up quarter round and drill a small guide hole for sighting (see Fig. 1). From basement, drill 3⁄4” hole in partition floor next to guide hole. In houses without basements, drill 1⁄2” hole through ceiling and into partition from above (see Fig. 1).

4.Through this hole drop a light chain, or 6” chain attached to a strong cord. Snag cord in basement with hooked wire. In houses without basements, drop cord through hole in ceiling and down partitioning; snag cord at the thermostat location.

5.Attach thermostat wire to cord and pull wire through hole in wall so that 6” of wire protrudes.

!CAUTION

To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment dam- age, disconnect electric power to system, at main fuse or circuit breaker box, until installation is complete.

NOTE

This typical wiring diagram shows only terminal identifica- tion and wiring hook-up. Always refer to the wiring instruc- tions provided by the equipment manufacturer for system hook-up.

All wiring should be installed according to local and national electrical codes and ordinances.

Wire colour DOES NOT indicate polarity. Polarity is obtained from an oscilloscope or voltmeter.
