ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
1) Locate the equipment power disconnect within 6-feet of the heater’s electrical enclosure.
2) Never mount power disconnects directly to heat pump.
3) Only use copper conductors.
4) Use sequencing controllers when multiple heaters are installed on site.
5) Local codes and regulations may require the use of a ground fault interruption device (GFI Circuit Breaker).
Nuisance tripping of these devices is common and not covered under the terms of the Manufacturer’s warranty.
