Planning Heater Layout

Heater Choice

Ensure the heater(s) you have purchased is/are correct size for the area. Installing a heater too small

may not produce enough heat to warm the area sufficiently, whereas too big a heater simply won't fit!

It is important to plan the position and layout shape of the heater(s) before starting the installation. The

last thing you want to do is to have to pull up your installed heater(s) and restart because you ran out of

room or otherwise placed the heater(s) incorrectly.

Step 1: Mark Out Permanent Fixtures

Using the tape measure and crayon or pencil:

• Reference a floor plan for accurate dimensions and mark out permanent fixtures (e.g. shower,

bathroom, kitchen bench, closet, etc.)

o If your permanent fixtures are wall hung, you have the option to heat underneath in order to

ensure your feet keep warm when standing up against them

• Mark a 10-20cm distance from walls

o Coldbuster recommends a 10cm distance from walls however the distance you use will

depend on the dimensions of the room and the size and layout shape of the heater(s)

Step 2: Plan Heater Layout

• When considering layout, keep in mind:

o The heater will start on the floor below the thermostat position

o Distance from walls

o It is ideal to end the heater at an area where there is extra space in case of left-over heater

length (e.g. can place left-over heating under wall hung fixtures or along the perimeter of the

room)

• Using the tape measure and crayon or pencil, mark out the placement of your runs (e.g. a line at

the beginning and the end of the run and an arrow to indicate the direction) as seen in the

Bathroom example below

Step 3: Check Layout with Heater Length

• Add up the various heater runs' lengths to confirm that they add up to the total heater length

(found on the box end)

• If you have more than one heater, the total length of runs should add up to the total of the heater

lengths
