CK and CKT electric fan heaters
www.stiebel-eltron-us.com
The CK & CKT wall-mounted electric fan heaters are ideal for new construction and renovation projects, in bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, hallways, playrooms and garages, etc. All CK & CKT heaters feature a built in thermostat (adjustable from 41 - 86°F), a frost protection setting designed to keep a room just above freezing temperatures. The new CKT extends the already impressive list of features by adding a 60-minute timer. Set up to an hour of high-output heat to quickly warm a room. When the timer goes off, the CKT will use the previous thermostat settings to make sure your room stays the temp you want. The CK series of heaters are available in four models: The CK 15E is a 120V, 1500 watt unit. The CK 20E is capable of running at either 208V, producing 1500 watts, or at 240V where it produces 2000 watts. The CKT 15E and CKT 20E share the same electrical specs, but add 60-minute timer-based operation. Stiebel Eltron.
