7. Check to make sure that the power cord is com-
pletely clear of the blower wheel and that there
are no other foreign objects in blower wheel. Also
double check all wire leads and make sure wire
routing is not pinched or in a precarious position.
Correct accordingly.
8. Turn on power to duplex outlet if previously
turned off per the warning in column 1,
page 19.
9. Plug in blower power cord to duplex outlet.
10. The blower will only run when the speed control
knob is in the ON position and the thermal switch
senses temperature after the replace begins to
heat up. The blower speed can be adjusted by
rotating the control knob. To turn off, turn knob
fully counterclockwise until it clicks off. If the
blower is ON and has been running with the
replace operating, the blower will continue to
run for a short time after the replace has been
turned off. As the thermal switch cools down, the
blower shuts down automatically.
11. Peel off the backing paper and stick the sup-
plied wiring diagram decal on the rebox bot-
tom approximately 12" in front of the blower
(see Figure 27, page 20).

Installation Items Needed
Before installing replace, make sure you have
the items listed below.
• external regulator (supplied by installer)
• piping (check local codes)
• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)
• equipment shutoff valve *
• test gauge connection *
• sediment trap
• tee joint
• pipe wrench
• approved exible gas line with gas connector
(if allowed by local codes)
* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff
valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alterna-
tive to test gauge connection. Purchase the CSA
design-certied equipment shutoff valve from
your retailer.
For propane/LP connection only, the installer must
supply an external regulator. The external regula-
tor will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must
reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11" and
14" of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas
pressure, replace regulator damage could occur.
Install external regulator with the vent pointing
down as shown in Figure 30, page 22. Pointing the
vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.
