Before installing the Bath Controls, determine the most convenient locations(s). When deciding on the
best location for the remote controls, please consider the following items:
1. Place the controls out of reach of small children.
2. Avoid locations where the control(s) will become hot, such as over a radiator, register, or other
heat sources.
3. Avoid direct sunlight. (The digital readout can be difficult to read in direct sunlight).
4. Avoid areas where the remote can be splashed with cooking water, oil, or sauce.
5. The remote control operates with low voltage, 12 volts DC.

Temperature Control(s) Installation (Optional):
1. The Bath Control (239-44507-00) and Secondary Bath Control (239-44508-00) are intended to be
installed in a bathroom close to a shower or tub. The controls may be wired in series or parallel
depending on the distance from the water heater to the controls.
2. Mark the holes on the wall using the control mounting plate and drill two mounting holes using a
3/32” (2.4 mm) drill bit and a clearance hole for the cable using a ¼” (6.4 mm) drill bit.
3. Run the cable from the control to the water heater or another control, which ever is closer or more
convenient.
4. Remove the face plate from the remote control by inserting a screwdriver in the slot and twisting
open.
5. Connect the cable to the terminal screws of the remote control.
6. Mount the control to the wall using the holes drilled and with the screws supplied. Note: Plastic
wall anchors may be required if the control is not located over a stud when mounting on
wallboard.
