Quick Specs

Best For

• Bathroom renovations where a baseboard would sit under a vanity or towel bar
• Ensuites that only need heat morning and evening
• Hotel, B&B and rental bathrooms where guests want instant heat without hunting for a wall stat

Why Contractors Choose It

• Integrated timer runs the heater for the shower and stops - no forgotten load
• Slim European format sits flatter to the wall than a North American fan heater
• Front-mounted controls stay reachable in a tight bathroom
• The best-selling Ouellet unit at Maple Electric Supply by order count

Choose the Right Model

Ouellet builds this series across the wattages and supply voltages Canadian buildings actually run. Match the part number to the service you have:

• OVE1502BL-T - 120 V

Installation Notes

CEC Section 62 applies. Size the circuit at 125% of nameplate (CEC 8-104) and provide a disconnecting means within sight of the unit or lockable per CEC 62-108. Recessed models need the matching wall can roughed in before drywall; surface models mount to the finished wall.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Mounting inside the shower zone - respect the bathroom zone clearances
• Taking the 120 V model when a 240 V feed is available; the 240 V unit heats faster
• Skipping the timer model and then leaving the heater running all day

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Ouellet OVE1500BL-TM 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 does the 1500 / 1125 W rating on the OVE1500BL-TM actually mean?
This unit is dual-rated. On a 240 V supply it delivers 1500 W. Put the same unit on a 208 V supply and output drops to about 1125 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.

What size breaker and wire does the OVE1500BL-TM need?
The unit draws about 6.2 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 7.8 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 1500 W in a real room?
5,120 / 3,840 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 OVE1500BL-TM need a separate wall thermostat?
No. This model ships with a built-in thermostat + timer - 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.

Is this a recessed or a surface-mount heater?
Check the part number and the listing photo before you order - Ouellet builds both. A recessed unit needs the matching wall can roughed in before drywall; a surface unit mounts to a finished wall. Getting this wrong after the drywall is closed is an expensive mistake.

How loud is a fan-forced wall heater?
You will hear it. That is the trade: a fan moves heat into the room far faster than convection, at the cost of audible airflow. If the room needs silence - a bedroom, a recording space, a quiet office - choose a convector or a baseboard instead.

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.
