This Heater is designed to provide years of efficient, trouble free
operation as a primary or supplementary heat source for residen­tial and commercial applications. Baseboard heaters must be
thermostatically controlled for efficient, safe operation. A thermo­stat is not provided with this heater. However, a single or double

pole thermostat accessory is available for installation 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 damage 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 T O OWNERS

Certain fabrics discolor in time from indirect sunlight and normal
room temperature - mostly organic and synthetic material. They
will discolor more rapidly when exposed to direct sunlight and
warm currents. Hang drapes to provide minimum of 2 in.(51mm)
air space between heater front and nearest drape fold as shown
in Example 1 Figure 1, or 6 in.(153mm) airspace between top of
heater and bottom of drapes as shown in Example 2, Figure 1.
Allow minimum clearance of 1 in. (26mm) from drapes to ceiling
and to top of floor covering to permit air circulation as shown in
Example 1, Figure 1.

INSTALLATION

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. Determine desired mounting
location (Figure 2), position heater to wall as intended and mark
wall (or floor) at location where power supply is to enter heater.
