Heaters can generally be installed on Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard. However, it's important to note that the maximum service temperature of Trusscore panels is 50°C (122°F).
Heaters that exceed 50°C (122°F) should be shielded and kept a minimum of 24 inches away from panels to avoid deformation.
The following heat sources are generally viable options to install directly on Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard:
Most baseboard heaters: Have a radiant temperature output lower than the maximum service temperature allowed for Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard
Ducting systems: Usually have the necessary shielding to remain within acceptable temperatures
Heaters with lower radiant temperature output: Such as heat pumps, fall within the acceptable service temperature requirements
If you're concerned about whether a specific heater is compatible, contact the heater manufacturer to determine:
The appliance's highest operating temperature
Any necessary shielding requirements
Clearance requirements
This information will help you determine if the heater can be safely installed on or near Trusscore panels.
