Installation

The CDFI1000 is supplied in an

assembled state and is designed to

be permanently installed. The unit

comes ready for hardwire installa-

tion and the use of the water rell

containers.

WARNING: Construction and

electrical outlet wiring must

comply with local building codes

and other applicable regulations

to reduce the risk of re, electric

shock and injury to persons.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

re, do not store or use gaso-

line or other ammable vapours

or liquids in the vicinity of the

heater.

!NOTE: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt cir-

cuit is required. A dedicated circuit

is preferred but not essential in all

cases. A dedicated circuit will be

required if, after installation, the cir-

cuit breaker trips or the fuse blows

on a regular basis when the heater

is operating. Additional appliances

on the same circuit may exceed the

current rating of the circuit breaker.

WARNING: Failure to install the

cassette as instructed below

may result in damage to the

equipment and or may expose

the user to the risk of re, ser-

ious injury, illness or death.

WARNING: Do not attempt to

wire your own new outlets or

circuits. To reduce the risk of

re, electric shock or injury to

persons, always use a licensed

electrician.

WARNING: Ensure that the

On/Off switch is set to the Off

position (refer to Operation

section) and that the circuit on

which the unit is to be installed

has the power cut off at the

service panel until installation is

complete.

!NOTE: Please read all instruc-

tions before installing.

Cassette Plumbing

The unit comes equipped with rell

containers for manual lling of the

reservoir. The unit can be hard

plumbed with the Dimplex plumbing

accessory kit - available from your

local Dimplex dealer, or with stan-

dard 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) tubing, using

the information outlined below.

!NOTE: The plumbing accessory

kit is designed for use with copper

piping.

CAUTION: Ensure that all

plumbing connections meet local

plumbing code requirements.

CAUTION: Ensure that the

location of the plumbing connection

allows for easy access to allow for

shutoff during scheduled mainten-

Installation

ance.

1. Locate a cold water line in the

vicinity of the desired location of

the cassette.

!NOTE: Normal tap water can

be used in the Optimyst®as long as

the tap water is not considered to

be hard water. In the event your tap

water is hard, softened or ltered

water is recommended.

2. Turn OFF the main water supply

and drain the line of any stand-

ing water (if possible), before

proceeding to tie into the water

line.

3. On the cassette, remove the

top cover assemblies and prime

each of the water reservoirs with

33.5 oz (1L) of water.

4. Replace the top cover assem-

blies and ensure that the two

plumbing caps are securely

attached to the top cover of the

water reservoirs.

5. Locate the ball valve located

in the bottom center of the unit

(near the back). (Figure 1)

6. Attach one end of the ¼ in. (6.4

mm) tubing to the ball valve,. In-

sert the tubing into the ball valve

tting so that it is fully inserted

(approximately ½” (12 mm)).

!NOTE: Ensure that the end of

the tubing is cut square, to prevent

leaking.

7. Route the tubing to the area of

the water source.

8. Verify that all of the connections

are fully inserted, and begin

opening each of the valves, en-

suring that no leaks are present.

!NOTE: The unit is equipped

with three levels of water control

management.

New Construction

CAUTION: When determining a

location for the Optimyst®cassette,

ensure that the unit will not be suscept-

ible to drafts, vents, ceiling fans and

other air currents. Similar to a candle,

large movements of air will affect the

unit’s ability to create and maintain the

ame effect.

1. Use studs to frame an enclos-

ure with the following minimum

internal/opening dimensions:

Media Plate - 40 ⅜ in. (1025

mm) wide, 12 ¼ in. (310 mm)

deep and the height can be

adjusted from 9 in. (229 mm) to

9 ½ in. (241 mm) by turning the

Logset - 40 ⅜ in. (1025 mm)

wide, 14 ¼ in. (360 mm) deep

and the height can be adjusted

from 9 in. (229 mm) to 9 ½ in.

(241 mm) by turning the feet on

the bottom of the unit

!NOTE: It is recommended

that during drywall installation and

nishing the media tray be installed

with the provided bag to prevent

dust and debris from entering the

unit.

!NOTE: For optimal perform-

ance, a clearance of 18 in. (457

mm) between the installation sur-

face and any surface above should

be maintained. A minimum clear-

ance of 12 in. (305 mm) must be

maintained.

2. In the back right corner of the

unit, locate and remove the

electrical cover plate, by remov-

ing the two securing screws.

3. Install a ⅜ in. (10 mm) or ½ in.

(13 mm) cable connector, not

included, suitable for mounting

in a ⅞ in. (22 mm) hole, to the

cable plate and feed the supply

cable through the connector.

The cable plate can be removed

by removing the two securing

screws on either side, to allow

for easier access.

CAUTION: Use two conductor,

non-metallic sheath cable with

ground wire (3 wires total) for the

incoming power supply on replace

inserts. Use appropriate wire to

meet local and national electrical

codes for rated power.

units in the same vicinity they will

need to be wired in parallel.

!NOTE: The Optimyst®cassette

is designed to allow for installa-

tion of a wall switch to control the

incoming power to the unit.

4. Connect the black wire (live)

from the unit to the live from the

power supply.

5. Connect the white wire (neutral)

from the unit to the neutral wire

from the power supply.

6. Connect the green wire (ground)

from the unit to the ground wire

from the power supply.

7. Place all connectors inside the

unit and secure the cable clamp

to unit, making sure that the

cable clamp grips only the jacket

of service cable.

WARNING: Ensure the power

wiring is not installed so that it is

pinched or against a sharp edge

and ensure that the power wir-

ing is stored or secured to avoid

tripping or snagging to reduce

the risk of re, electric shock or

injury to persons.

8. Install the unit into the roughed

in framing ensuring that the unit

is resting on two framing sills,

one at the front and one at the

back or a level surface.

9. Level the housing - right to left

and front to back, using the 6

adjustable feet on the bottom of

the unit.

10.Secure the unit to the perma-

nent framing on either end

through a minimum of two holes

(Figure 2).

!NOTE: An air inlet that is a min-

imum of 72 in2(460 cm2) is required

for optimum mist production (Figure

3).

Operation Preparation

1. After the surrounding area has

been dry walled and nished,

remove the media plate from the

unit.

2. Install the tethered controller

into the jack on the right hand

side of the unit and run the cord

around the internal components

and out through the small open-

ing in the back panel. (Figure 2)

Installation

3. Locate the tethered controller

so that:

a) it can be easily accessed, if

being used as the main controls,

b) it is not obscured by either

bricks or sheet metal so that

the signal that is sent from the

remote control can be easily

picked up.

4. Initialize the tethered controller

to the remote (see operation

section).

5. Fill the unit:

•RellConatiners - remove

the ll cap assemblies from the

inlet to the reservoir tanks, then

install the rell containers.

!NOTE: During initial installa-

tion, the Rell Container should

be relled after the Reservoir

has lled to ensure the max-

imum operating time.

•Hard Plumbed - prime each of

the water reservoirs with 33.5 oz

(1L) of water.

!NOTE: Normal tap water can

be used in the Optimyst®as long as

the tap water is not considered to

be hard water. In the event your tap

water is hard, you may use soft-

ened water or distilled water with

1/8 tsp. of salt (0.5 mL) added to

the water reservoir. (The addition of

additional salt should only be used

when you notice that the unit is not

producing mist as expected.)

6. Install the media tray or logset

accessory on top.

!NOTE: If the intention is to ac-

cessorize the unit with something

other than just the media tray or

logset, ensure that media used

does not have the ability to create

small particles that may fall into the

unit or has a overall weight above 5

lbs (2.3 kg).
