Slant-fin 104-002-030 Hot Water Baseboard Heater 3 Ft

Product Description

The SLANT-FIN 104-002-030 is a complete hot water baseboard heating assembly designed for residential hydronic systems. The unit ships fully assembled and measures 3 feet in length, with a copper element and aluminum fin construction housed in an electro-galvanized cold rolled steel enclosure finished in Nu-White baked enamel. Heating capacity ranges from 150 to 840 BTU/h at 1 GPM and 160 to 890 BTU/h at 4 GPM, depending on flow rate and water temperature. A pivot-mounted, fully modulating damper vane allows individual room temperature control. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians typically handle installation in new construction and retrofit hydronic heating projects.

This baseboard assembly is suited for single-family homes, apartments, and renovation projects where hot water baseboard heat is the primary or supplemental heating method. The 3/4-inch element connection accepts standard copper fittings, and ample clearance above the heating element allows a return line to be run with no special adapters. The 1-3/4-inch floor-to-front cover opening promotes natural convection airflow for effective heat distribution throughout the room.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for residential hot water baseboard heating systems using 3/4-inch copper element connections and standard hydronic piping.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician familiar with hydronic heating systems. Shut down the boiler and depressurize the system before connecting or disconnecting any baseboard element. Work should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) where adopted. Do not overtighten fittings on the copper element tube; use standard compression or sweat connections as appropriate for the existing piping.
