• Availability: in stock in Vaughan, ON. Ships Canada-wide, counter pickup available

Quick Specs

Best For

• Entry vestibules where every wall is glass or door
• Commercial washrooms and change rooms
• Spaces where wall-mounted equipment would be damaged or vandalised

Why Contractors Choose It

• Ceiling mount leaves wall surfaces completely free
• Built-in thermostat available, so no separate control device is needed
• Commercial-duty construction rated for continuous cycling
• Built for a 208 V supply - Ouellet encodes voltage in the part number, so there is no field conversion and no wrong-voltage guesswork

Installation Notes

CEC Section 62 applies. Units dropped into a suspended T-bar grid must be independently supported to structure, not carried by the grid alone. Size conductors at 125% per CEC 8-104.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Carrying the unit on the T-bar grid alone instead of supporting it to structure
• Ordering 240 V for a 208 V service
• Mounting directly over a doorway where the air stream fights the door swing

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Ouellet OACP2008BL-T CSA certified for use in Canada?
Ouellet is a Quebec manufacturer and its heating products are built to Canadian standards and certified for the Canadian market. Confirm the certification mark and the ratings on the unit's own nameplate against your local amendments before you energize it.

Where does Maple Electric Supply ship this from?
From our own stock in Vaughan, Ontario. That means no cross-border wait, no duty and no surprise brokerage on a heater you need before the cold hits. Counter pickup is available, and we ship across Canada.

What supply voltage does the OACP2008BL-T need?
208 V. Ouellet encodes voltage in the part number, and this one is a 208 V unit - it is not field-convertible to another voltage. If your service is different, there is a matching part number in the same series for it.

What size breaker and wire does the OACP2008BL-T need?
The unit draws about 9.6 A at 208 V. Fixed electric heat is a continuous load, so CEC 8-104 sizes the conductor and the breaker at 125% of that - about 12.0 A. Your electrician sizes the final circuit against everything else on it; a 15 A 240 V circuit tops out at 2880 W of total connected heat.

How much heat is 2000 W in a real room?
6,830 BTU/h. As a working rule of thumb for an insulated Ontario room, budget roughly 10 W per square foot for a well-insulated space and closer to 15 W per square foot for a basement, a room over a garage or anything with a lot of glass. Send us the dimensions and we will size it properly.

Does the OACP2008BL-T need a separate wall thermostat?
No. This model ships with a built-in thermostat - the control is in the unit, so you skip the wall box, the control run and the separate device. If you would rather run a wall stat for a multi-heater zone, order the version of this part number without the built-in control.

Do I need a disconnect for this commercial heater?
Yes. CEC 62-108 requires a disconnecting means for fixed electric heating equipment - within sight of the unit, or lockable in the open position. On a suspended or ceiling-mounted unit that is not optional and inspectors look for it.

Can this replace a gas unit heater?
Often, yes - and it removes the venting, the gas piping, the combustion air and the annual gas inspection along with it. The question is whether the electrical service has capacity for the load. Send us the existing gas heater's BTU rating and your available service and we will tell you what it takes.

Can I get a price on a full job's worth?
Yes. Multi-unit and contractor pricing is available on Ouellet heating - send the schedule or the count and we will quote it. Most heating orders over a handful of units are priced by our counter team rather than at list.
