__________________________

PLACEMENT: For best results, install heater beneath a cabinet in the toe kick area. Install the Perfectoe (Model UC)

horizontally. Do not install the UC heater in the oor. Headers and bracing are not necessary. Heater must be installed per

the directions indicated on the lid.

WARNING! Vinyl oor manufacturers warn that some vinyl may discolor from temperatures in excess of 110° F. See your
vinyl oor manufacturer for temperature specications for your vinyl oor covering.

CONTROLS: A thermostat is required. A Cadet electronic thermostat is recommended for ultimate control and comfort.

Optional single or double pole eld mount thermostat kits are also available: Model numbers UCT1 and UCT2.

STEP 1

The UC Series heater REQUIRES A MINIMUM distance of 6
inches from adjacent surfaces (see Figure 1). However, Cadet
RECOMMENDS 12 inches from all adjacent surfaces for longer
and cleaner performance. Heaters must be spaced at least 3 feet
apart.

For installation in an existing wall/cabinet, cut a rough opening
14½ inches wide by 3½ inches high. Opening must be 8½ inches
deep.
