Confirm the certification mark and the ratings on the unit's own nameplate against your local amendments before you energize it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does Maple Electric Supply ship this from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the 4800 \/ 3600 W rating on the OCC4800AM-MO-TB6 actually mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis unit is dual-rated. On a 240 V supply it delivers 4800 W. Put the same unit on a 208 V supply and output drops to about 3600 W - roughly 75%, because output falls with the square of the voltage. Order on the voltage the building actually has, not the one on the drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size breaker and wire does the OCC4800AM-MO-TB6 need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unit draws about 20.0 A at 240 V. Fixed electric heat is a continuous load, so CEC 8-104 sizes the conductor and the breaker at 125% of that - about 25.0 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much heat is 4800 W in a real room?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e16,390 \/ 12,290 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the OCC4800AM-MO-TB6 include a thermostat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo - this is the base unit and it needs a control. You can either run a line-voltage wall thermostat, or order the equivalent part number with a factory-installed thermostat built in. We stock both, plus the Ouellet stats that suit them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I run this in an enclosed space?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes - that is the point of electric temporary heat. There is no combustion, so no carbon monoxide, no fumes and no combustion-air requirement. Keep the nameplate clearance to tarps, lumber and anything else combustible on the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs buying cheaper than renting for a winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsually. Five months of rental on a jobsite heater will typically exceed the purchase price, and then you own it for the next winter. If you run more than one site, that gap widens fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I get a price on a full job's worth?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
