Facon CW-T1218 Recreational Vehicle Holding Tank Owner’s Manual

RECREATIONAL VEHICLE HOLDING TANK, STEP, PIPE AND ELBOW HEATER PAD PROGRAM ** Owner’s Manual**

Facon ® Heater Pads are designed and engineered to protect RV holding tanks, pipes, and steps from freezing. Properly sized and installed Facon Heater Pads provide consistent & efficient protection as the first signs of freezing winter weather approaches. Falcon ® offers a full line of products including tank, pipe, elbow,  and step heater pads allowing pleasurable use of your RV during freezing winter temperatures.
Falcon ® Tank & Step Heater Pads are thermostatically controlled. They will operate as long as sufficient electrical power is supplied to the RV. The thermostat
is set to turn itself on at 45 ° ° F (5 C) and turn itself off when the holding tank temperature reaches 68 ° F (20 0 C). As long as the on/off switch is in the on position and electrical power is supplied, the thermostat will continue to cycle preventing freezing.

Manufacturers Heater Pads for the winter convenience of today’s RV’er. The Model CW-T82S&CW-T825-L works efficiently up to SOgallons for holding tanks. The tank heater pads are thermostatically controlled, designed to turn on at 45 ° 0 F (S C) and to turn off at 68 ° F (20ºC). Apply tank heater pads to smooth and clean surfaces. Identify the lowest point on the holding tank, closest to the drain. Clean the surface of the holding tank with isopropyl alcohol and let it dry. Peel back the paper from the adhesive, and then press firmly and smoothly over the intended placement area. DO NOT STRETCH THE PAD.
The CW-T825&CW-T825-L require 120V AC to operate at maximum efficiency. Please ensure the connection to the proper voltage and the proper “on-off” switch is used. The connection must be fused with the correct amperage. If two or more tank heater pads are to be used they must be connected in parallel. Please ensure after installation the lead wires are securely located and will not hang below the surface of the tank.
CAUTION: a ground fault protection device must be used with this heating device
