For retrofit (existing construction) appli- cations, use high volume boxes, such as the 2-gang Slater Retrofit 32 cu. inch box.

Most high volume new construction J- boxes will work. A "P" ring could also be used.

NOTE: Be sure to check fit before buying large quantities of J-boxes for the job.

Since the Waterpad is fully enclosed, it may be possible, with some types of sturdy wall materials, to mount it di- rectly to the wall surface. See Fig. 9.

Mounting Procedure - Retrofit J-Box

Fig. 6 Mounting the Waterpad into a Retrofit type J-box.

 

To mount the Waterpad using a retrofit J-box, refer to Fig. 6 and proceed as follows:

1. Temporarily mount or hold the J-box ￿ to the wall opening.

2.Using the Adapter Plate ￿ (supplied) as a template, mark, then drill four 1/8" x 1/4" holes in the wall material to allow clearance for the ends of the #6-32 x 1/2" cover plate screws ￿. This allows the cover plate to be pulled down flush to the wall in step 9. See Figs. 6 & 8.

3.Thread the 6-foot cable from the Waterpad through the Adapter Plate ￿ and through a knockout hole in the back of the J-box ￿.

location in an adjacent com-

 

partment or room and make connections to the 8-terminal block and the 4-conductor inter-room cable. Refer to Figs. 3 & 7.

5.Attach the J-box ￿ to the wall.

6.Attach the Adapter Plate ￿ to the J-box ￿ using the four #6-32 x 3/4" Flat Hd screws ￿ (supplied).

7.Install the #4-40 x 1/4" Pan Hd screw and O-ring ￿(supplied) into the Pressure Relief Hole ￿. Tighten until you see some compression of the O-ring.

CAUTION: A Pressure Relief Hole ￿ is provided to prevent the buildup of internal pressure that could damage the membrane during"storage and shipping conditions. When the Waterpad is installed at the final site, however, the screw and O-ring must be installed prior to exposure to moisture!

Failure to do so will void the warranty!

8.Using the four #6-32 x 5/16" PH Flat Hd screws ￿ (supplied), attach the Waterpad ￿ to the Adapter Plate ￿. See Figs. 6 & 7.
