The electric base board heater uses convection to circulate air. By superior design and proper placement under a window area the electric baseboard case allows air to flow naturally. The cold air falls from the window area as the warm air rises from the heater causing the air to tumble gently throughout the room. The electric baseboard heater is the number one choice for low cost installation. This heater may be placed directly on the floor and mounted to the wall. There are only a few exceptions listed in the installation instructions. The quiet operation makes it the preferred heater for bedrooms. Cadet recommends a wall-mounted thermostat for optimum performance or you may prefer the convenience of an optional field mount thermostat kit. Baseboard heaters work best when placed under a window and at least 1' from furniture or other objects. Keep at least 12" minimum from objects hanging above (i.e. drapes). Do not install below electrical outlets.
