is likely to be blocked by furniture, curtains, etc. Be

sure the location selected allows sufficient space for the
heater as shown by Table 1. DO NOT locate this heater

in an area where combustible vapors, gases liquids, or
excessive lint, dust or moisture is present.

for power to enter. Provide proper strain relief con-

nectors for your wire entering the wallbox.

from

vertical
sidewalls and 4” above floor. The front edge of

wall can MUST extend 1/2” beyond finished wall
