THERMOSTAT
A thermostat is required. A Cadet wall thermostat is recommended
for optimum performance, or you may prefer the convenience of a
built-in thermostat kit. For instructions on wiring a thermostat, see
the instructions that were included with your thermostat. If you
are installing a wall thermostat, refer to the section later in this
guide titled “Baseboard Wiring With a Wall Thermostat” prior to
installing the baseboard.
PLACEMENT
For best results, install the baseboard heater under a window,
along an outside wall, or as close as possible to an outside door.
Follow these instructions for selecting an ideal area of installation:
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, YOU MUST
CONSIDER SEVERAL FACTORS THAT ARE CRITICAL TO INSTALLATION
•
The seam at the junction of the wall and floor behind the heater
should be caulked to prevent dust from being drawn into the room.
•
Heater should be set flush against surface of the wall.
•
Remove any obstructions between the back of the unit and the
surface of the wall.
•
Baseboard heater may sit directly on any floor surface, including
carpet.
•
Do not allow carpet to block lower air intake located 1 inch from
the bottom.
•
Maintain at least 12 inches minimum clearance from objects hanging
above (i.e. drapes).
WIRING
Wire connection is possible from either right or left side of the
baseboard heater. Determine which side of the baseboard you are
making wire connections by locating the supply wires. You must
locate the supply wires before mounting the heater. See section
titled “Baseboard Wiring With a Wall Thermostat” prior to wiring
the baseboard if you are installing a wall thermostat.
VOLTAGE (ALL MODELS)
It is extremely important that you verify the electrical supply wires
are the same voltage as the heater (i.e. 120 volt heater to 120 volt
power supply and 240 volt heater to 240 volt power supply). If replacing
an existing heater check the labels of the old heater and replace
using same voltage. Hooking a 240 volt heater to a 120 volt power
supply will drastically reduce the heater’s output. Hooking a 120 volt
heater to a 240 volt power supply will destroy the heater.
WATTAGE (FOR MODEL 8F2025)
Model 8F2025 is a multi-watt unit configured for either 2500 or 2000
watts. The heater is factory set for 2500 watts, but the instructions
vary depending on your desired wattage and which side you are
wiring. Make sure you follow the directions in the Owner’s Guide
for your specific application. It is best to decide on your desired
wattage prior to installing the baseboard.
ABOUT THE CADET ELECTRIC BASEBOARD: The Cadet Electric Baseboard is designed to provide zonal heat to a room by using convection to
naturally circulate warm air. Safety is Cadet’s first priority. All F-Series electric baseboards feature an oversized high temperature limit switch
with a full length capillary sensor tube that temporarily shuts the heater off when excessive operating temperatures are detected. For effective
and safe operation, and to prolong the life of the heater, read all instructions and safety information, and follow the maintenance instructions
in this Owner’s Guide.
