Description: New 120/240V, White, Double Pole Built In Baseboard Thermostat by Cadet Mfg. # 08734 item 237815 Cadet 120/240V, White, Double Pole Built In Baseboard Thermostat Cadet's Double Pole Thermostat is designed for controlling Cadet electric Baseboard Heaters. Designed to replace the detachable baseboard end plate on trhe heater (wiring compartment cover), the BTF easily installs onto either end of the baseboard heater. The BTF line voltage thermostat is capable of switching up to 17 amps, of a resistive load, at 120, 208 or 240 VAC with setpoint temperature range of 45 - 80 F.Features:Double poleLine voltageColor: white120/240 voltFits either end of heaterUse only on Cadet built in baseboard heatersEasily mounts at either end of cadet f series baseboard heatersUse with 120, 208, or 240 volt cadet electric baseboard heatersUL listedBoxedMade in USA NOTE: Line voltage is very dangerous and the power to the heating system should be shut off before changing any thermostat Frequently Asked Questions: What is the difference between double pole and a single pole thermostats? Single pole thermostats breaks only one side of the power line to your heater and cannot be turned off. Therefore, power is continuous to the heater even if it is not running. The control knob will have a low temperature setting without an off position. Single pole Thermostats uses only two wires. This means that even if the temperature dial is turned all the way down, voltage is still going into the heater through one line. This may pose a hazard to anyone who might perform electrical work on the heater without realizing that the circuit was still on. You will need to turn off the power at the circuit breaker before electrical repairs can be made safely. Double pole thermostats breaks both sides of the power line; therefore all power to the heater is interrupted. This acts as a safeguard for people performing electrical work on the heater. However, to be on the safe side, you should always turn off the power at the circuit breaker, not at the thermostat, before making any electrical repairs. A double pole will uses four wires and has a off position on the thermostat. Since they are inherently safer, you should always try to use double-pole thermostats, if possible. Another advantage of a double-pole thermostat is that you can turn it completely off and the heat will not come on no matter how cold your room gets. But with a single-pole unit, the thermostat will turn the heat on even if set on the lowest setting. CHECK YOUR LOCAL CODES FOR BUILDING REQUIREMENTS IN DETERMINING IF YOU NEED A SINGLE OR DOUBLE POLE THERMOSTAT BEFORE PURCHASING OR INSTALLING. How can I determine if I have a single or double pole thermostat? Usually, you can tell the difference between a single pole and double-pole thermostat by looking at the dial. A double-pole normally has an "Off" position on the dial whereas a single-pole thermostat does not. The only sure way to tell which kind you have is to remove it from the wall and count the wires connected to it. A double-pole thermostat will have four wires that switches both hot wires whereas a single-pole thermostat will have two wires that only switches one of the hot wires. Can I use a single or double pole thermostat with a 120, 208, or 240 volt heater? Yes. Can I use 1 thermostat to control more than 1 baseboard heater? Built-in thermostats (mounted directly on baseboard) are designed for single heater use. However, it is possible to control more than 1 heater on a wall thermostat if the thermostat rating is not exceeded. Can I mount the thermostat on one side and wire the baseboard heater on the opposite side? No, the thermostat requires power from the supply wires and must be wired in conjunction with the baseboard heater. Is a built-in or a wall mount thermostat better? A built-in control is convenient when the walls are already finished. The built-in thermostat is also convenient to install. However, the wall thermostat is a more accurate way to control the room temperature, is more convenient to use, and has a broader selection of models. The use of electronic thermostats provides more accuracy and saves you money on your electric bill.
