Instructions / Assembly
GENERAL
This heater is designed to provide years of efficient, trouble free
operation as a primary or supplementary heat source for comfort
heating in residential and commercial applications. Baseboard
heaters must be thermostatically controlled for efficient, safe oper-
ation. A thermostat is not provided with this heater. However, a
single or double pole thermostat accessory is available for instal-
lation into this heater at your place of purchase, or the heater may
be connected to any suitable wall mounted thermostat that will
meet the electrical load requirements. Installation or use of this
product in any manner not described herein will void the warranty
and could result in injury, damage to property, or permanent dam-
age to heater.
UNPACKING HEATER
Check heater to make sure it has not been damaged in shipping.
Do not install or attempt to operate the heater if damaged. Return
to place of purchase or file claim with freight carrier.
Notice to owners: Certain fabrics discolor in time from indirect
sunlight and normal room temperature - mostly organic and syn-
thetic material. They will discolor more rapidly when exposed to
direct sunlight and warm currents. Hang drapes to provide mini-
mum of 2 in.(51mm) air space between heater front and nearest
drape fold as shown in Example 1 Figure 2, or 6 in.(153mm) air-
s
pace between top of heater and bottom of drapes as shown in
Example 2, Figure 2. Allow minimum clearance of 1 in. (26mm)
from drapes to ceiling and to top of floor covering to permit air cir-
culation as shown in Example 1, Figure 2.
INSTALLATION
Note: Check heater nameplate for electrical ratings before begin-
ning. Make sure voltage and amperage ratings on the heater
nameplate match those of the power supply and any accessories
used, see Figure 1 and Table 1.
Floors & Carpeting: Heaters may be mounted directly on any
floor surface, including carpeting. Where wall-to-wall carpets are
installed after the baseboard installation, the carpeting can be run
up to the front and around the heater body, providing it does not
obstruct air flow. (Maximum 3/4” (19mm) thick).
1. Remove wiring compartment cover at end of heater where
power supply cable is to enter (Figure 3). Determine desired
mounting location, position heater to wall and mark wall (or
floor) at location where power supply is to enter heater.
NOTE: Make sure the caution label with the word “TOP” is at the
top of the heater. For most efficient operation locate heaters
along outside wall under windows. Position heater so it can be
secured to wall stud. Power cable must enter heater through built
in cable clamp or one of the knockouts provided in wiring com-
partment.
