Sterling sus-5 Baseboard Heater Complete 5 Foot with 3/4 Inch Sweat Element

Product Description

The Sterling sus-5 is a complete 5 foot hydronic baseboard heater designed for residential and light commercial heating applications. It ships as a full unit with the copper and aluminum element already installed, so installers can get the job done faster with fewer parts to source separately. The sus-5 delivers 2,800 net BTU per hour at 180 degrees Fahrenheit water temperature with a flow rate of 1 gallon per minute. That output makes it well suited for bedrooms, offices, hallways, and other moderately sized spaces in a hot water heating system. The element uses a 3/4 inch sweat connection, which is the standard size for most residential hydronic loops. Copper and aluminum construction ensures efficient heat transfer from the water to the surrounding air. The enclosure measures 2 and 13/16 inches thick and 7 and 7/8 inches tall, keeping the profile low enough to fit beneath most windows and along standard walls without interfering with furniture placement. The unit arrives painted white to match common interior trim and wall colors, so no additional finishing is required after installation. A splice plate is included in the package, making it straightforward to connect multiple sections end to end when a longer baseboard run is needed. Weighing 12 and 1/2 pounds, the sus-5 is manageable for a single technician to handle and mount. Plumbers and HVAC technicians who work on forced hot water systems, zone heating upgrades, or new baseboard installations will find this a reliable, code-compliant choice. The complete packaging means no hunting for separate enclosures or elements. It is a direct fit for standard hydronic systems running copper tubing at typical residential operating pressures and temperatures.
