Choosing a Location for the Thermostat
When replacing an existing thermostat, the new thermostat should be mounted on the existing metal electrical box
that controls your heater.
Safety Note: Ensure the thermostat is not near heat sensitive/ammable material, such as exposed wood, wallpaper,
loose papers, or other re hazards. The normal surface temperature of the operating thermostat is 45-55ºC (113-131ºF).
The thermostat is rated to operate safely at these temperatures but should be kept away from re hazards.
For NEW home installation, choose the location of the metal electrical box carefully.
It SHOULD BE MOUNTED:
・
Approximately 5' (1.5 m) from the oor.
・
Near or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside partitioning wall.
・
On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
It SHOULD NOT BE MOUNTED:
・
Near temperature-radiating objects that may cause false readings.
(For example: near a window, next to a door leading outside, or near the heat from a lamp,
direct sunlight or a replace.)
・
Near concealed pipes and chimneys.
・
In areas with poor air circulation. (For example behind a door or in an alcove.)
