SECTION 6: ELECTRICAL SERVICE INSTALLATION
6.1 System Requirements
The CGTH-Series heater requires a grounded three-
prong electrical outlet to be installed within 18" (46
cm) of the rear surface of the heater's burner. It is rec-
ommended that the outlet for the heater be ceiling-
mounted and should be on a dedicated circuit. DO
NOT use an electrical extension cord to operate the
heater.
Heater Rating: 120V, 60 Hz, Single Phase, 1A
6.2 Grounding
The heater must be electrically grounded in accor-
dance with the following codes: United States: Refer
to National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA-70 - latest
revision. Wiring must conform to the most current
National Electrical Code and local ordinances. Can-
ada: Refer to Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1
Part 1 - latest revision.
6.3 Important Notes
1. The CGTH-Series heater is controlled by a low volt-
age (24V AC) thermostat supplied with the heater.
The control transformer located inside the burner
supplies the necessary electrical power to operate
the thermostat. No other electrical power to the
thermostat is required.
2. The wire for connecting the thermostat to the
heater is not supplied. Refer to the installation
instructions supplied with the thermostat for cor-
rect wire sizing.
6.4 Thermostat Placement
For best results, locate the thermostat as follows:
• Mount the thermostat on an interior wall whenever
possible.
• Mount the thermostat approximately 60" (1524
mm) from the floor.
• Mount the thermostat so that it is shielded from
the heat that is radiated from the heater.
• Mount the thermostat over the thermostat tag that
is provided in the accessories bag. The thermo-
stat tag contains important safety information and
must be used.
6.5 Thermostat Installation
1. Connect thermostat wiring to the thermostat as
follows:
A. Attach one wire of the thermostat wires to the
"R" terminal on the rear of the thermostat;
attach the remaining wire to the "W" terminal
(See Figure 30).
B. Peel off backing of adhesive strips on the rear
surface of the thermostat tag and position the
tag against the wall; secure thermostat over
tag using two screws.
