WARNING: Panel must NOT be wired to higher voltage than label voltage. Verify that the power supply
voltage coming to the heater matches the voltage printed on the heater label.
TESTING INSTALLATION
After installation, the heating circuit should be checked
to ensure all panels have been installed properly and are
functioning normally. With power available, measure the
branch load with an amp meter. The amp meter value
should agree with calculated load – if not, recheck the
installation. A physical check of operation can also be
made – with power to the panels, they should be warm
to the touch and prolonged contact should be
uncomfortable.
If no power is available to test the circuit, the use of an
ohmmeter is required. Measure the resistance of the
load circuit, isolated from other circuits. The measured
resistance of the heating circuit should match the
calculated resistance. The resistance can be calculated
with the following formula:
𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 =
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑠 ∗ 𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑠
𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑠
HEATING PANEL OPERATION
Ensure panels have been properly installed prior to
operation. Radiant heat ceiling panels function best in a
zone heating configuration. Use a programmable
thermostat to apply appropriate setbacks to spaces that
are unoccupied. Optimal comfort with a radiant system
is typically obtained at air temperatures of around 60-
62F.
It is recommended that the panels are dusted and
cleaned with a damp cloth every 6 months. Do not use
harsh cleaners or abrasives or damage to panel surface
may result. Do not lubricate. Make sure to disconnect
power to panels at breaker box before cleaning, and
allow panel to reach room temperature.
!
WARNING:
Panel contains no user serviceable
parts and opening the heating unit will void the
warranty.
HEATING PANEL MAINTENANCE
Ducoterra heating panels require no maintenance and
carry a 20 year warranty. An occasional dusting & wipe
down with a damp cloth every 6 months to maintain
appearances is all that is necessary. Do not use harsh
cleaners or abrasives or damage to panel surface may
result. Make sure to disconnect power to panels at
breaker box before cleaning, and allow panel to reach
room temperature. If your panel ceases to operate at any
time during the warranty period, contact Ducoterra to
obtain a replacement panel at no charge (installation and
shipping costs not covered).
