Therma·Ray panels are placed between the floor joists Panels are to be installed in open,
unobstructed floor joists The panels are held in place by a wire (0 5cm) The panels must be a
minimum of 2 inches from the floor Drill holes through the joists so that you can install wire
every 24 inches Be sure to use sufficient wire to securely hold the panels in place The number
of panels needed should fill the floor joist spaces in the area to be heated Do not install panels

Drill holes in the joists near the lead wires of the Therma·Ray panel
Therma·Ray panels are connected in parallel to the branch circuit Canadian installation shall be
made according to the provision of Section 62 of the Canadian Electrical Code, part 1 and to
regulations of all authorities having jurisdiction U S installations are to be made in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes where applicable Installations outside North
America should conform to applicable local codes The heater load, once determined, can be
divided into as many circuits as needed 12AWG (2 0 mm) copper conductor, non-metallic
sheathed cable is recommended for installation of panels In areas where type NM cable is not
permitted, metal enclosures are available for use with rigid or flexible, metallic conduit or tubing
(See Installation Instructions Supplement for Metal Wiring Enclosures ) When determining the
number of branch circuits required to accommodate the heating load, note that the branch
circuit must be de-rated in accordance with either the Canadian Electric Code, National Electrical
Code, or local coded as applicable It is not recommended that wire size greater than 12AWG
(2 0 mm) be used to connect the panels to the branch circuit After the panels are secured in
