...some installation facts
• Install vertically only. The recommended height is 24 inches (61 cm) from the floor to the bottom of the wall can.
• The heater must not be installed in the floor or ceiling, even if you are replacing an existing heater that was installed in either of these
locations.
• Installation on an inside wall is recommended.
...a wall thermostat may not be used
Your Energy Plus heater is equipped with a unique built-in thermostat that both regulates the heat output and provides precise tem-
perature control. If replacing a heater controlled by an existing wall thermostat, remove wall thermostat from the heater circuit and
cover the hole with a faceplate.

...about the Cadet Energy Plus heater
The Cadet Energy Plus Heater provides comfort to a room by using an efficient, variable speed fan
to circulate the warm air, and an intelligent thermostat to deliver precise temperature control.
Your heater is designed to save energy and run at a low speed once the desired room temperature
is reached. This is normal operation that reduces on/off cycles and improves overall performance
and comfort.
Your heater also has a cool down feature that may run the fan for up to 10 minutes after switching
to STOP HEATING/NO FAN mode. This is typical. The air coming out of the heater may feel cool,
but it's actually residual heat moving into the room.
TO REMOVE AN EXISTING WALL THERMOSTAT FROM HEATER CIRCUIT
1. Make sure power is off at the main disconnect panel.
2. Remove wall thermostat mounting screws.
3. Pull the thermostat away from the wall and count the wires.
