Thanks Charles! I
very much appreciate the offer, but let me research it a bit more. I just read a post where a guy "removed" the remote section off the unit and just wired an extension and plug onto the now-exposed wires.
If I go that route, I can just have the electrician install a remote-operated switch on the circuit before the outlet. I think.
Again, thanks to both of you.... let me research it a bit more.
Maybe I should just install a window to the "room". Naaah, I wanted to build clamp racks over that wall!
