INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Determine quantities of enclosure and accessories required per wall or run. If installation is wall-to-wall, run backplate to within ½” of adjoining wall(s). If run ends with end cap, extend backplate beyond end of required enclosure 1-1/2″ for 4″ end and 6″ for 8-3/8″
- Mount backplate (full or partial) to wall at prescribed height (Refer to Submittal Drawing) making sure that it is straight and If valve compartments are being used, make sure that an equivalent amount of backplate is installed.
- Install extruded aluminum floor angle to the floor at location shown on submittal drawing. The floor angle will run the full length of the run including enclosure and
- Hot Water Systems or Steam Systems (Two Pipe): Wall mounted hangers are required to support the element Hot water systems do not require pitch for the element. Install two
(2) wall mounted hangers per element length up to 6′-0″ of length. Three (3)
wall mounted hangers per element length 6′-6″ up to 12′-6″ (8′-0″ for ¾”
copper/aluminum) of length.
(Accessories do not require brackets). Secure hangers to wall using fasteners
(as specified) by others. For two pipe steam systems, the wall mounted hangers
must be located so the
supply end starts at the highest point and pitches down at a rate of ½ inch
per 20 foot run.
- Lay out heating element as required. Place slide cradle onto the bottom of element at each bracket location. The element cradle has two legs that angle out slightly. Position the legs between the fins so there is tension against the This holds the cradles in position. Check submittal drawing for correct
position of element fin. For copper tube elements, flush the loop or
series with system water after soldering to neutralize the remaining flux material and prevent
corrosive action and resulting pinhole leaks.
- The enclosure can now be Start enclosure at left end of run working clockwise. The enclosure grille support gussets mount directly into the ‘V’ bend of backplate. Slip the bottom edge of the enclosure front panel into the receiving slot of the extruded aluminum floor angle. Firmly push next piece of enclosure into slip joint tabs of piece on left until run is completed. The enclosure can be secured to the floor angle if desired with fasteners by others.
- Install overlapping accessories as indicated on room All accessories are overlapping. Valve Compartments are installed the same as enclosure. The top back bend is slipped between the wall and the backplate. The accessory bottom extends to the floor and is secured with fasteners by others.
MAINTENANCE
Before each heating season, remove accessories and enclosure panel to inspect
finned tube elements for accumulation of dust or other debris that may
accumulate and block airflow between fins.
Remove dust and debris from coil fins with a vacuum cleaner or compressed air.
Inspect for leaks or areas of corrosion. It should not be required, but if
necessary, place a drop of lubricant (machine oil) onto each ball bearing
(where applicable) located in the water brackets or bracket mounted hangers.
Replace cover and accessories.
