Site Selection and Preparation

!

NOTE 1: A 15 Amp, 120 volt

circuit is required. A dedicated

circuit is preferred but not

essential in all cases. A

dedicated circuit will be

required if, after installation,

the circuit breaker trips or fuse

blows on a regular basis when

the heater is operating.

Additional appliances on the

same circuit may exceed the

current rating of the circuit

breaker.

WARNINg: Ensure the power

cord is not installed so that it

is pinched or against a sharp

edge and ensure that the

power cord is stored or

secured to avoid tripping or

snagging to reduce the risk

of fire, electric shock or injury

to persons.
Construction and electrical

outlet wiring must comply with

local building codes and other

applicable regulations to

reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your

own new outlets or circuits. To

reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock or injury to persons,

always use a licensed

electrician.
