Can Heater Boards be installed on the roof or walls of my house?
Heater Boards are designed to be installed on the ground, and not attached to the roof or walls. Most state and local building codes only allow approved equipment that is designed and tested for wind and fire resistance on the roof and walls of a house. American Solars Heater Boards are designed to be installed on the ground near a house and deliver heated air though a corrugated outdoor duct. In the summer, when no heating is necessary, the light weight Heater Boards can be simply disconnected and stored away until the next heating season, freeing up your yard space for summer fun. Also, if your utility room is on the ground floor or in the basement, the installation on the ground will simplify the ductwork from the Heater Boards to the heating loads in the utility room.
