I know the heating strips are 240 but is the fan a 240 or 120 motor? Essentially I am asking do I need 14/2 or 14/3 romex to hook it up?

14 wire is borderline and i used 12 -2 two hots and one ground wire works like a charm did not use 3 wire only black and white hot and copper ground

I would suggest 12/2 to wire these units. It's true the unit above only uses less then 10 amp- 240VAC. But using 12-2 allows you to put more than one heater on a circuit. There is only one power connection.

I have never used anything less than 12/2 or 12/3 for any size heater. A 12/2 should be fine.

They sell 120V and 220V versions. I have one of each and they work the same. I think you can use whatever the norm gauge of romex for the voltage to hook it up. In my house, the wires were identical for the 120v and the 220v connections (house was built in 1970, so codes may have changed)

The fan I purchased was made to run on 120 volt alternating current. There were wires to wire the fan directly or wire it to be controlled by a switch.

No! it's only rated for 120vac if you run it on 240 you'll burn it up. I asked an electrician and this is his answer. I hope this helps you.

Best guess is that unless you are a mechanical wizard the integrated nature of the motor and fan will not allow you to merely replace the current motor with this motor. I found that the motor was customized to the fan and could not be just attached. I ordered an entirely different and fully contained replacement for my nutone fan, though I cannot find on my system where I ordered it now. DJH

Sorry Mike, but the unit has been installed for several years and I have no way to gather the information that you're asking for. However, I bought the unit as a replacement to another motor, per some spec recommendations. Even thought the motors were different,including the length of the shaft, the mount brackets allowed me to adjust the unit until it fit in the power vent. I took a gamble on this working and was pleasantly surprised that it did.

Hi Robert, the only info I have from manual and label on fan is that it uses a 125 volt fuse, 25 amp.

Hello JOJO,This fan only use with 110V or 220V. Not we can not make it 110-240V.Thanks for interested in this item.110V working well now!

The marking on the fan reads: MOTOR: TP 120V 1.1AThat would make it 132W at full power. There is no mention of consumption at lower power levels.

Depends on the Amp your existing wiring has. Since the FV-11VH2 has a separate heating device, it might require a higher Amp than what you have and a separate switch for on/off. Talk to your installer or check the requirement stated for the fan.

(after my first comment) I now see the 2500 cfm fan uses an "efficient PSC motor"...and costs $10+$12=$22 more, so it is a special motor giving it high efficiency.(apparently larger blades too) Wiki says : "PSC motors (permanent-split capacitor) are frequently used in air handlers, blowers, and fans (including ceiling fans) and other cases where variable speeds are desired." ...or for improved efficiency apparently. So I now say "it's the special motor"..... I also see the numbers are misleading, so read all the details.. the "1500" moves 1300cfm for a 1850sf attic, and says 3.4 amp, but also below says 2.6 amp! the one I bought. The "1600" actually is a 1600 cfm fan so it says, for a 2400sf attic at 4.5 amp, and seems to be 15"x15". The "2500" relates not to the cfm, but to the 2500sf attic! only 100 more than the "1600" model... with amps supposedly at 2.1, but listed as 21"x21". good luck.

It says on the part that installs on the fan: Power, AC120V/60HZ 2W, RATING 1.25A FOR FAN AND 300W FOR LIGHT KIT It also says below that : TERMINAL BLOCKS FOR USE WITH COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY, 14-22AWG, TIGHTENING TORQUE 2-18 IN-1B

Hello - I realize that you posted this comment some time ago, but I'm hoping you may be able to help me. I bought this fan a couple of months ago but only recently hired someone to install it while I was away on a trip. Turns out my 1948 house has the 2-wire electrical, so my contractor simply purchased a different fan. Now I can't return this one. To use it, what did you do? Did you purchase a different type of remote and if so, what kind? Thank you!

My furnace mod # is 58wav070-12112, not sure about yours. Google your model # to see if it takes the same. This is a very common inductor motor for these brands. Make sure you order the fan assembly that it suggests (you'll never be able to remove the old one from the old motor shaft!). Good luck!

My furnace is GMT090-4. The fan is standard on the GMT furnaces. It should work.

the motor goes on a 42 inch heat Buster fan it plugs in to a wiring harness no wiring required

I'm not sure how to respond but it says 120V 60 Hz on the back of the fan if that helps.It doesn't say anything about dual voltage nor did I see 240V anywhere on the package.....

I purchased the model TH140-28 and am using it with a hot water baseboard radiator system with a low voltage (24V) control. The user guide shows that it can also be used with a 120 to 240 VAC control. If your system is circulating hot water, this unit should work. If your system is direct resistance heat, I cannot speak to that type system since I'm not familiar with the different types of controls that it may be using.
