Hi, if your heater is 220 volts, i highly recommend installing a double pole thermostat. This is the simple explanation, with the 220 volt breaker of, there should be three wires to connect the thermostat with. White and black coated wires go to the breaker and the bare wire goes to ground... Now if you have a 220 thermostat on the wall, this is where the wire goes next, wires from the breaker attach to the line side of the thermostat (black and white)-wires that go to heater attach to load side (black and white) and the bare wire Take care
