ThermostatWiring
Use any conventional thermostat or doorbell wire to route the thermostat to the
heater.Unless the thermostat is diode protected or voltage sensitive to DC (positive
and negative), it doesn’t matter which heater thermostat wire goes to the respective
contactsonthebackofthermostat.
Consultthewiringinstructionsthatareincludedwiththethermostattomakesurethat
the low voltage thermostat being used is compatible with the 12 volt DC voltage
originating from the yellow and white thermostat wires from the heater.The
