Ouellet High End Baseboard Heater 500/375W 240/208V Metallic Charcoal, 750mm

TL;DR: Who is this for

- Electricians installing fixed electric heat in residential or light commercial spaces

- Maintenance teams replacing existing baseboard heaters and wanting quieter operation

- Homeowners who want a durable, clean-looking heater with reduced expansion noise and simple control through a wall thermostat

Institutional Fit

- Good for condos, apartments, schools, offices, and multi-unit buildings where quiet heat matters

- Useful for unit turn-overs due to durable cabinet construction and powder paint finish

- Suitable for corridors and rooms where rounded, robust construction reduces damage in high-traffic areas

- High altitude option available (-HA) for projects in higher elevations

Technical Specifications

Regulatory Compliance

- Confirm the approval marking on the product nameplate before installation in Canada (CSA, cUL, or equivalent)

- Install in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code and local authority requirements

- Confirm supply voltage matches the specific unit you are buying, since the series offers multiple voltages

Durability and Lifecycle

- Aluminum front cover improves robustness and helps resist dents in busy rooms

- 20-gauge satin coat steel cabinet supports long service life in residential and light commercial settings

- Powder paint finish is designed for everyday durability and easier touch-up maintenance

- Floating element design reduces expansion noise over repeated heat cycles

- Automatic reset high-limit control adds protection against overheating events

Procurement notes

- Voltage is the first filter. Confirm your circuit voltage and order the matching heater variant

- Wattage sizing shortcut: suitable space is roughly (watts ÷ 10) sq ft under average conditions, then adjust for insulation, ceiling height, and climate zone

- Controls: line-voltage wall thermostat is typically required and usually sold separately unless factory options are specified

- Color: if you need metallic charcoal or a custom finish, confirm lead time and upcharge before ordering

- High altitude: specify (-HA) if your jobsite elevation requires it

- Multi-unit planning: standardize models across a building to reduce spare parts complexity

FAQ

Is this heater quiet?
It is designed to reduce expansion noises using a floating heating element on high-temperature nylon bushings.

Does it include a thermostat?
Typically no. Most installs use a separate line-voltage wall thermostat unless a factory option is specified.

What voltage should I choose?
Match the heater to your circuit voltage. The series supports multiple voltages, so confirm your panel and circuit before purchase.

What size room can it heat?
A common shortcut is about 10W per sq ft. Example: 1000W is often used around 100 sq ft under average conditions. Adjust for insulation, ceiling height, and cold exterior walls.

Is there overheat protection?
Yes. It includes a linear high-limit temperature control with automatic reset.

What is the high altitude version (-HA)?
It is an option intended for higher elevation installations. Use it when your project specs call for a high altitude model.

Can I use this in commercial spaces?
Yes, when properly sized and installed, it is commonly used in both residential and light commercial indoor environments.
