  ADJUSTABLE END CAPS & FILLER PIECES 

– Adjustable End Caps 

are available in both left-hand 

and right-hand patterns and are used in the same loca-
tions as the standard end caps except the 9” length of the 
adjustable end caps makes it possible to 

¿

 ll in spaces of 

up to 7-1/2”.  A knockout is also available in the ends for 
piping.

  Filler pieces are used where a 9” space or less exists 

between two sections of baseboard or between a section 
of baseboard and baseboard extension.

  To install adjustable end cap or 

¿

  ller piece accessory, insert 

bolt thru hole in accessory and engage toggle as shown 
below.  Place accessory against BASE-RAY

®

 at same 

time pushing toggle thru air outlet of BASE-RAY.  With 
accessory in 

¿

 nal location, tighten bolt until accessory 

is secure.  Use 

¿

 nger to keep toggle in vertical position, 

as shown below.

10.  Completing Installation – Important

  AIR-SEAL – It is necessary to prevent leakage of air 

between the walls and BASE-RAY

®

, since this will cause 

dirt streaks on the wall above the heating unit.  This can 
be avoided by installing an “Air-Seal”.

  We recommended using 1” wide tape for this purpose, 

preferably with a thermal setting adhesive, available from 
Burnham at nominal charge.

  With the adhesive side down, press one-half of tape against 

the top of BASE-RAY and the other half against the wall 
as illustrated on page 9.

  WOOD MOULDING – For 

¿

 nished installation, 3/4” 

quarter round or other wood moulding should be nailed 
to wall on top of BASE-RAY (over “Air-Seal”) and Trim 
and down side of Valve Enclosures.  When Projecting 
Corner Plates are used, install wood moulding at base of 
Corner Plate to hold in place.  An illustration showing the 
application of the moulding can be found on page 9.

  PAINTING – BASE-RAY and Trim are primed with a 

latex (water based) paint and must be top coated with a 
high grade oil or solvent based enamel to prevent rusting 
of the metals 

immediately after installation.  Primer 

coated products should not be allowed to sweat as a 
result of high room humidity or cold water in system. 

The use of 

À

  at wall paint is not recommended since it may 

chip or crack when applied to surfaces that are heated.  
Consult reputable paint dealer.
