3. Remove two (2) screws per side for the brackets and the fireplace screen to be removed and set aside. 4. Remove one (1) screw per side of the bulb housing assembly to remove and set aside. 5. Remove two (2) screws per side for the left side cover. This allows the cover to be opened for access to where the power cord enters the strain relief and the compartment. 6. Using wire cutters, gently cut the power cord inside the compartment, flush to the strain relief. Also, repeat for the power cord outside the compartment. 7. Back inside the compartment, gently separate the three (3) wires of the power cord into separate wires by gently pulling them apart. DO NOT use a knife, as this may expose bare conductors. The hot wire is connected to the main power switch and is terminated with a straight terminal connector. The neutral wire is connected at the circuit board’s screw clamp terminal block. The green ground wire is attached to the ground stud. Use a 5/16” (8 mm) socket or wrench to remove the brass nut, brass lock washer and brass cup washer and set aside. Remove and discard the cut power cord ground wire. 8. Using a slotted screwdriver, remove the 7/8” (22 mm) diameter knockout above the old power cord strain relief. 9. Route the power cable from the breaker/fuse panel through the 7/8” (22 mm) diameter hole. Secure the cable to the compartment using an approved clamp. The wires should extend approximately 6” (152 mm) into the compartment. 10.Connect the ground wire from the power cable by wrapping it around the ground stud of the unit and securing it firmly with the brass cup washer, brass lock washer and brass nut. 11. Using wire strippers, strip approximately 5/8” (15 mm) from the ends of the hot and neutral wires. Using an approved wire nut, connect the hot lead (black) of the power cable to the power cord wire that ends at the main power switch. Similarly, using another wire nut, connect the neutral wire (white), of the power cable to the power cord ending at the screw clamp terminal block of the circuit board. It is recommended that the wire nuts be taped to the wires, using electrical tape, as an extra safety measure. 12.For extra safety measure, visually check and fix the wire routing appropriately. Refer to the wiring diagram on the unit or in the instruction manual if any wires have been dislodged. 13.Turn the power to the unit on at the breaker/fuse panel. Place the appliance into operation and check to make sure all of the systems are working properly Inspire Electric Fireplace Fireplace Assembly Unpack the Appliance The Inspire Electric Heater is supplied in two (2) cartons. All instructions should be read before beginning installation. Carton 1 contents 1, Electric heater main body 1, Remote control handset with battery 1, Mounting hanger 1, Mounting hardware kit [#12 x 1/2” long screws (6), wall anchors (6), #8 x 1/4” short screws (4)] 1, Installation instructions 1, Pebble pack 2, Insert panels Carton 2 contents 1, Trim assembly w/ six (6) magnets Appliance Mounting The heater must be mounted to a suitable wall using the mounting hanger provided. Consider the minimum clearance dimensions referenced on Page 3 and 4 for the mounting location. The following steps are for one method that can be used at your own risk. A helper is recommended. 1. Become familiar with the mounting hanger and how it fits to the rear of the electric heater main body. (Fig. 2) Mounting Hanger Wiring Diagram FP1731 Fig. 2 Rear view of Inspire with mounting hanger in place. 2. Locate the heater main body on the wall and mark (erasable) either the bottom or top edge and one ............ side for the heater location. If the heater is to be centered on the wall area, the side mark is not nec ................................. essary. Set the heater main body down. .......... 3. Mark a horizontal line 21...” (536 mm) from the lower line or 2...” (58 mm) from the upper line. 4. Measure half the width [16...” (416 mm)] of the heater main body and mark a vertical line to cross the horizontal line. If the heater main body is to be centered on the wall area, mark a vertical center line to cross that horizontal line. Where the horizontal and vertical marks cross is the location of the upper center mounting hanger hole. 5. Use an appropriate level and mark and measure the locations for the remaining holes of the mounting hanger. Use the mounting hanger as a template. 6. Use the long screws provided to mount the hanger in place. A #3 Phillips screwdriver is recommended. Depending on the wall type, proper anchors have to be used. For your convenience, expansion anchors are provided. Be sure to check the anchors for suitability for the wall type. 7. Mount the heater main body to the hanger. Heater Assembly Before assembling the trim to the heater main body, arrange the pebbles onto the plastic front form (ember lava rock), to give the best decorative effect. Refer to front cover for example. If necessary, the side brackets for the plas...
