SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
BASE-RAY
®
 INSTALLED ON THREE WALLS OF ROOM 
– When BASE-RAY is installed on three walls, expansion 
noises are sometimes created by the middle assembly when 
rigid piping is used to connect all three assemblies together.  
Flexibility can be gained by connecting two of the adjoining 
assemblies with a À exible connector or swing joint such as 
illustrated.
INSTALLATION WITH BURNHAM RADIANT OR 
SLENDERIZED RADIATORS
 – Since a BASE-RAY 
installation is made in much the same manner as any other 
radiator system, BURNHAM RADIANT OR SLENDER-
IZED RADIATORS may be used in a BASE-RAY Radiant 
Baseboard System.
TWO-TIER INSTALLATION – Where wall space is limited, 
BASE-RAY may be installed in tiers.  Both sections may be 
upright or lower section inverted as illustrated.  Legs on end 
sections are cut off to enhance appearance.
RATING CORRECTION FACTOR – If BASE-RAY is 
installed in tiers in accordance with the illustrations, each tier 
will have a rating of .91 times the rating shown in the Tables 
on pages 2 and 3.
