INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Minimum Clearance
Cover to Wall: When an open style endcap will not fit due to an
insufficient amount of clearance between the side edge of the
back plate and a perpendicular wall you may require a Zero
Clearance endcap (ZC001). When installed in the same way as a
regular endcap the Zero Clearance endcap is visually
indistinguishable from a normal EC001 endcap.
Furniture: maintain at least 6 inches (152 mm) space
between furniture and heater cover to allow for proper air
flow.
1. Remove existing metal front cover and end caps and
discard. Measure the length of the existing baseboard
heater enclosure (the metal part that is attached to the wall)
from left to right.

2. Install new baseboard panel by slipping it over the old wall
plate and push down to secure it in place. The 3/4 inch lip
on the bottom of the cover panel keeps the cover in place-
allowing it stay securly installed.
3. Install the endcaps, make sure to snap into place using the
lip at the bottom of the endcap
4. Slide the endcap to meet the exact end-to-end span you
require.

Cleaning:You can perform some basic cleaning of the heater
cover. The panel and endcaps may be cleaned using a slightly
damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or waxes as these may damage
the finish or leave a residue that will discolor.
Joining Panels: When joining 2 or more baseboard cover
panels together you will require a coupler CP001. The coupler
is used for connecting lengths of panels together seamlessly.
To install the coupler piece simply fit the piece where the two
panels meet and snap in place.
Wall Brackets: OPTIONAL method of installation. Wall brackets
are used when the original covers are less than 7-1/2 Inches tall
or in the event that the original covers have already been
removed. You will need 2 brackets (put one at each end) if the
baseboard heater cover is less than 5 feet long. If you are
purchasing a 5, 6, or 7 foot baseboard heater cover, you will need
3 brackets per unit (put one at each end and one in the middle of
the unit).
The wall brackets come with the no. 7 screw you will need and it
is highly recommend to screw the brackets into a stud.
**NOTE: If the measurementis greater than 7 feet long you
will need to install more than one panel joined with an
optional coupler piece # CP001 (See 'joining panels'
