To stop the black residue from a baseboard heater, the wall around and near the heater should be cleaned as there are dust particles attached to the wall. This is called ghosting which fine particles of soot attach to the wall that is cooler than the temperature.
Black soot with electric baseboard heat could be a sign of dust or debris burning on the heating element. Ensure the baseboard heater is clean and free from any obstructions. If the issue persists, have a professional inspect the heater for any potential malfunctions.
Yes, you can get black dust on your wall from a baseboard electric heater. If the heater has a fan, this often spreads dust to areas near the walls. If the heater does not have a fan, the warm air rising from the heater can cause dust to settle near the area.
An electric baseboard heater usually requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit with a double-pole thermostat. The wiring involves connecting the heater to the power supply by matching the colors of the wires (black to black, white to white, and green/bare to ground). It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and all applicable electrical codes when installing the heater.
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.
I'm having the same problem with a non-oil heater. I'm thinking the paint can't handle the heat.
Dust settles on the heating elements just like everywhere else in the home. When the element turns on the dust is burned off and the resulting smoke creates the residue.
Electric baseboard heaters can give off a black film on walls due to dust particles in the air being drawn towards the heater and then heating up and sticking to the wall when they come into contact with the warm surface. This can be more common in heaters that have not been cleaned or maintained regularly. Regularly cleaning the heater and the walls can help prevent this buildup.

Lead residue is typically grayish or black in color.
Black residue on a black candle could indicate incomplete burning, poor quality candle wax, or impurities in the wax. It could also be due to the candle being exposed to drafts, causing uneven burning and residue.
This is wiring 2 baseboard heaters with a double pole wall thermostat 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
