you run the power wire to the thermostat on the wall then you run a wire to the 1st heater and then you run another wire from the 1st heater to the 2nd heater and hook red on red and black on black with wiring mariette's in the heaters junction box on left or right side which ever is more suitable for you and then you go to the wall thermostat and hook red on red and black on black with the wiring mariette's and then you hook your power wire to the power supply which is 100 or 200 amp service and on a double 20 breaker and the wire has to be no smaller than 12/2 wire. also do not forget to hook the ground wire (bare copper) on the green screw on your heater and in the thermostat box and then on the power supply box..... now you can turn up your thermostat and enjoy the heat ...........LEE48

You have 20 feet wide and 20 feet long floors you are trying to buy carpet for how much carpet should you buy?
Carpet comes in 2 widths 12' and 15' so if you go with 12' carpet then you need 2 pieces...to get it to the look the best with one seam I would get 2 20' pieces. 15' carpet I would order a 20' piece and another 6 foot piece ...that's given that the room is 20' exactly because you need to order extra 3 inches on each wall.. If there is baseboard heat against the walls you want to order enough extra carpet to wrap up and under for the best look. hope this helps

Where does the red wire in a baseboard heater connect to the black or white wire in the wall?
In the heater you will have two wires. You should then have 2 supply wires from the panel, and 2 wires from the thermostat. The neutral (white) supply wire should go to one of the wires on the heater. The hot (black) supply wire should connect to one wire from the thermostat. The other wire from the thermostat will connect to the other wire from the heater.

How hot does a hot wire strip heaters wire get?
Hot wire strip heaters are used for usually sealing two pieces of poly together to form a bag or band around an object. Due to the variable types of poly used and different manufactures specifications , one heat can not be used for all occasions. There is a thermostat that is added in line with the hot wire to control the temperature of the wire. This thermostat limits the heating of the wire so as to get the melting point of the poly just right. If a strip heating wire is left full on it will get red hot and usually burn itself up. Nickel chrome wire has a melting point of 1400 degrees C.

Can you use 12-2 and a double 20 amp breaker to run a basebord heater rated at 4.2 amps and the thermostat rated at 17 amps?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The thing to consider here is the current rating of the baseboard heater. If the baseboard heater is 240 volt then yes you would need to use a two pole breaker. If you are using just one heater on the circuit, the current rating of the heater is low enough that you could use a two pole breaker rated at 15 amps and copper wire rated at #14 . The rating of the thermostat is the maximum that the stat will handle safely. With the combination you suggest you could run a total of 3800 watts of baseboard heaters. In amps this would be 16 and well within the rating of the stat.
How do you know what the voltage of your electric baseboard heater is if there is no label on the heater?
Go to your power panel and look for two pole breakers. If there are any 20 amp two pole breakers there is a good chance that they are for the baseboard heaters. Switch this breaker off and turn your thermostat up. If the baseboard heaters do not come on and get hot then this is the supply for them. A two pole breaker is supplying 240 volts to the heaters. Most likely there will be more that one heater on the circuit. As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

How can you wire a 3 wire attic fan to a 2 wire thermostat?
If your thermostat is designed to switch the fan on and off at say 120 volts, then it acts just like a switch. This means that you insert the two wires from the thermostat in series with the black wire going to the fan. So let's say you have a supply of power for fan that has black, white and bare wire ground. You connect the white to white on fan and ground to ground. You then connect one wire of the thermostat switch to supply black and one to fan black wire. If you are unsure of the type of thermostat or anything else get an electrician. This is just one possible solution given the information provided.
