    My Mr Heater Bigg Maxx Install

    First let me say thanks to all the replies in this thread. It has been very helpful. I did go ahead and purchase the thermostat from amazon today. I finished up the plumbing and passed my inspection. I still need to seal the pipe and I found some tape by 3m that is rated for 600 degrees that I...

    My Mr Heater Bigg Maxx Install

    I completed the wiring of the unit this afternoon. Hopefully later this week I can get the gas line installed. I mounted a cooper combination switch on the wall that has a pilot light to give a visual when the heater is powered up. I'm not sure exactly if I will run the unit at all times. I'm...

    FWIW, I"m installing my heater that I purchased back in Jan-2011, and I went ahead and took out the top burner for a look and it was already fixed.

    Cooper 277 combination/pilot switch?

    I have seen "ghost" voltages with a DMM before but they are usually in millivolts. This is actually 25 volts. I don't have an analog meter, but there might be one over at dads.

    Here is mine. Still need to install my ch surge protector and run a few more 240 circuits: I switched out the 100A service that was fed from the house and upgraded to a 200A. I still have a 70A service fed from the garage to my shop.

    Cooper 277 combination/pilot switch?

    Got a quick questions for some of you experienced electricians. I installed a copper 277 combo device that has a pilot light. It has a few different configurations that you can wire the switch in. I wired mine so that when the single pole switch is on, the pilot is on. Everything works as it...

    My Mr Heater Bigg Maxx Install

    Thanks Freon. That sounds like a great idea. Here is what Lowes has: http://www.lowes.com/pd_81349-41698-104400R_0__?productId=1101671&Ntt=selkirk&pl=1&currentURL=%2Fpl__0__s%3FNtt%3Dselkirk&facetInfo= I was thinking it was a firestop, but its listed as a support. What do you think about using it?

    My Mr Heater Bigg Maxx Install

    Freon, Thank you for the reply. I have been gathering parts for the install. I did see the fire stops at Lowes. I wasn't sure if I needed one or not. I may need to go back and pick one up. I might have to get creative on installing it. I made wedges to fit between the trusses to get the heater...

    My Mr Heater Bigg Maxx Install

    There is alot of studying when it comes to where to put these heaters. I think I have maybe failed on my first attempt. Thank God I have not starting cutting anything yet. When I mounted the heater up in the ceiling earlier this year, I was planning on venting it horizontally. I was under the...
