HEATING ELEMENT AND AIR CHANNEL INSTALLATION |
WARNING
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE: Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
•DO NOT remove electrical panel cover while system is energized.
• Elements MUST be positioned properly to avoid short circuiting them against any surfaces within system.
• Use care when making connections to avoid element damage.
1. Insert heating elements between brick layers until element ends embed into side cutouts of brick cavity. The threaded screw tabs on wire connection terminals should point forward.
2.Install air channel with air deflectors (arrow shaped pieces) facing
inward and narrow ends of deflectors pointing up. Place top of air channel in first.
3. Lower insulation blankets back into position, one at a time. Tuck sides into edges, corners and around exposed portions of heating elements.
4. Install galvanized panel. Slide the top inside the upper lip of top painted panel. Bottom rests on the outside of the brick cavity.
5. Connect wiring harnesses to heating elements using screws in element screw kit. Install screws with heads up and threads pointing down. Tighten screws to 14 in·lbs.
6.Check non-insulated element connections to make sure they do not come within 1/2" of any surface.
7. Install painted front panel.
