Anyone know of a thin toekick sized baseboard type radiation? Standard toekick FAN COIL heaters are out of the question. Any info would be very helpful. Merry Christmas.
Pat.

    Thinnest I've seen....

    Is by Turbotronics(? sp.) about3" high with quiet fans. Can't think of anything else "slimmer" . Chris

    With or without fans?

    Most toe kick units are 3" with a 3.5" grill. Or are you looking for a BB that looks like moulding?

    Something slim, perhaps using 1/2" Fin tube, no blower, simply a straight hydronic element enclosed in a narrow enclosure,or maybe a radiant panel. It could run the entire length of toe kick space under the base cabinets.I really don't know if anything like this exists but the owner is set against using the standard toe kick space heater that we all have come to know and love. Thanks for your reply.

    Hydronic Heating Panels

    There are hydronic heating panels that stick out from the wall maybe 3/4" and are 3-12" high(can't remember exactly). I can't remember the name, I saw them about 4 months ago. Let me dig through my info and find them for you, they would work perfect in this situation I think.

    one comes to mind

    Runtal - we installed Runtal in the toe kick area of a very old farm house kitchen with great results.

    kick space heater

    good morning.

    turbonics has a unit that can be installed in the floor. this works great if you have a basement under the room that you need to put the kick space heater in it.

    if you have open wall space in this room you can use turbonics regular under counter kick space heaters that can be mounted in the wall or surfaced mounted on the outside of a wall. you then need to buy the cover for it.

    i sell these kick space heaters to heating contractors and they love them.

    they are also very quiet when running.

    have a happy and safe holiday season.
