Features
- Heat your space without kicking up dust or other allergens. The natural convection airflow doesn't rely on a blower or fan to move warm air throughout the room.
- Hydronic baseboards put out smooth, steady warmth without large temperature swings. Their sealed-tube heating element heats up quickly and stays that way, for a more stable room climate.
- Even after the thermostat turns off, this unit continues heating the room, thanks to its fluid-immersed heating element that better retains warmth to keep your room cozy for longer.
- This convection heater starts up and stops without the disruptive popping or pinging sounds given off by traditional baseboard models.
- For maximum efficiency, the unit converts all incoming electric energy into heat, according to Department of Energy standards.

Project Ideas
Business
Retrofit & Upgrade Service
Start a niche contracting service specializing in replacing old electric baseboards with modern hydronic units in apartments, condos, and older homes. Offer bundles: supply the 28" Navajo White units, install smart thermostats, add decorative covers, and provide electrical permit coordination. Recurring revenue comes from maintenance contracts, seasonal checkups, and emergency callouts. Market to landlords and property managers who value quiet, even heat.
Portable Heated Booth Rentals
Build modular vendor booths or market stalls that use these low‑profile hydronic heaters to keep small vendor spaces comfortable at outdoor markets, craft fairs, and holiday events. Rent by the day or season to vendors who need a warm micro‑environment to sell food, crafts, or electronics. Offer set‑up, teardown, and onsite power solutions (with certified electricians) as premium services.
Artist/Ceramicist Drying Stations (Rental or Membership)
Create a shared studio business offering heated drying cabinets, shelves, and station rentals for artists and ceramicists who need reliable, gentle heat to finish work. Equip each station with a 28" hydronic baseboard heater, temperature control, and scheduling. Charge monthly memberships or per‑use fees; provide optional services like kiln firing coordination, supplies, and pickup/dropoff for a premium tier.
Heated Pet Equipment Line for Groomers & Shelters

Emphasize quiet operation and stable temperatures as buyer comfort upgrades.
Creative
Seedling/Propagation Heat Shelf
Mount one or more 28" hydronic baseboard heaters horizontally inside a simple wooden or PVC frame to create a quiet, low‑variance heat shelf for seed starting and cuttings. The gentle, retained warmth prevents sudden temperature swings that can shock seedlings. Add a humidity dome or clear shelving above and a plug‑in thermostat to keep temps steady. Note: keep plants and plastic clearances per manufacturer recommendations and use a qualified electrician if hardwiring or altering the unit.
Heated Towel Bench
Build a slim entryway or bathroom bench that integrates the baseboard heater underneath a slatted or perforated top so the surface stays warm and dries towels. The unit’s silent, steady heat and residual warmth after shutoff make it ideal for quick-dry and cozy seating. Use noncombustible mounting, a protective grill/cover, and an accessible thermostat or switch. Have an electrician install and verify clearances for safety.
Slow‑Dry Cabinet for Ceramics & Paint
Convert an old cabinet or wardrobe into a controlled drying chamber by installing the heater along the back wall and adding vents and a low‑power thermostat. The hydronic unit’s steady heat reduces cracking/glazing defects in ceramics and helps oil or acrylic paint cure more evenly. This creates a compact, quiet drying station in a garage or studio — great for hobbyists or small batch makers. Ensure good ventilation and that flammable solvents are never used inside.
Pet Warmth Platform
Create a raised pet platform or bed with the baseboard heater mounted beneath a wooden or composite top and insulated sides so the heat radiates upward. Perfect for older dogs or outdoor dog houses during transitional seasons: low heat keeps pets comfortable without hot spots. Incorporate a thermostat and a removable top for cleaning. Electrical safety and secure mounting are essential; consult an electrician for hardwired installs.
Heated Entryway / Mudroom Bench
Design a stylish mudroom bench that hides the Navajo White heater behind a custom-painted or stained slatted cover that matches your decor. The concealed unit provides steady warmth to dry boots and warm feet without noisy fans. Offer interchangeable faceplates (wood, metal, woven) so the heater becomes a design element. Keep grills and clearances intact and avoid painting the heater body itself to not void safety features.
