Installation Instructions

1.Wall Preparation:

To prevent excessive heat loss through the walls in back of BASE-RAY®, it is recommended that the stud space behind the Assemblies be insulated to a height of at least 12” above the Àoor with 4” mineral wool batts (blanket or loose insulation may also be used) or other approved insulating materials. This is particularly essential if the BASE-RAY is recessed. Mark Stud locations.

2.Allowance for Finished Flooring to Wall-to-Wall Carpeting:

If BASE-RAY is to be installed prior to the ¿nished Àoor, a wooden strip 2½” in width and equal in height to the ¿nished Àoor should be installed along the base of all walls where baseboard assemblies and trim are to be placed.

If allowance is not made for wall-to-wall carpeting, or for carpeting that is to be laid with edges Àush to the room side surface of BASE-RAY, the air inlet of the BASE- RAY will be restricted, resulting in a reduction in output. To compensate for the wall-to-wall carpeting, baseboard assemblies and trim should be raised by laying under them a strip of wood 2½” wide and the same thickness as the carpet and pad.

3.Recessing of BASE-RAY Assemblies and Trim.

(If BASE-RAY to be installed free-standing, proceed to Step 4.)

BASE-RAYandTrimmaybepartiallyrecessedorinstalled free standing against the ¿nished wall surface. Although procedure for preparing recess may vary slightly with type of ¿nished wall, in general, steps outlined below for lath and plaster construction may be followed:

a.Nail ½” plaster ground to studs with the bottom of the plaster ground located 10” above ¿nished Àoor.

*Additional height must be allowed if recess prepared before ¿nished Àoor is laid or if wall-to- wall carpeting is to be installed – see Step 2 of Installation Instructions.

b.Line back of recess with paper-backed aluminum foil. This can be accomplished quickly and neatly by stapling foil to studs with staple gun. Foil surface should be on room side.

4.Locate Holes for Piping (see Illustrations):
