F. Wall Switch Installation for Fan (Optional)
If the box is being wired to a wall mounted switch for use
with a fan (See Figure 12.5):
The power supply for the appliance must be brought into
a switch box.
• The power can then be supplied from the switch box
to the appliance using a minimum of 14-3 with ground
wire.
• At the switch box connect the black (hot) wire and red
(switch leg) wire to the wall switch as shown.
At the appliance connect the black (hot), white (neutral)
and green (ground) wires to the junction box as
shown.
• Add a 1/4 in. insulated female connector to the red

E. Junction Box Installation
The junction box must be wired from the INSIDE of the
appliance:
• Determine which side of the appliance the junction box
is located on.
Pull the electrical wires from outside the appliance through
the knockout making sure to use a Romex connector to
fasten the electrical wires to the unit.
• Pull enough wire into the valve compartment to easily
reach the junction box location.
Remove the screw attaching the junction box to the junction
box bracket and set it aside.
• Route the wire through the knockout in the junction box
bracket.
• Wire the junction box and reattach it to the bracket by
inserting the tab in the slot and attaching with screw
previously removed. Ensure that a Romex connector is
used to attach the electrical wires to the junction box.
