Marley Engineered Products 2546w Baseboard Heater 1500W 6 Foot

Product Description

The MARLEY ENGINEERED PRODUCTS 2546w is a 6-foot electric baseboard convection heater rated at 1500 watts at 240 volts and 1128 watts at 208 volts, delivering 5118 BTU/h of heating capacity. Built on the QMark 2500 model platform, it uses an aluminum-finned sheathed steel heating element with a nickel chromium resistive element for efficient, even heat transfer. The steel cabinet features a polyester powder-coated finish in Navajo White and mounts directly to the wall. Licensed electricians handle the installation on single-phase 208/240-volt circuits.

The 2546w is rated for both residential and commercial applications, making it suitable as a primary heat source in living spaces, bedrooms, and offices, or as supplemental heat for cold spots and hard-to-reach areas. At 250 watts per foot watt density across a 6-foot length, it provides consistent coverage along exterior walls. The thermostat control type allows for integrated or field-installed temperature control to match the demands of the space being served.
