Felt But Not Seen

Often-overlooked, Kickpace heaters deliver the best of both worlds. Cost-effective heating in a compact package. Their modest size means that in a room with a challenging layout, one that would not accommodate a baseboard heater, a Kickspace heater may be able to fit in seamlessly, installed at floor level beneath cabinetry or even inside the wall.

Fits Where Others Can't. Only 3-5/16" Tall

With its narrow 3-5/16″ profile the KTW Kickspace heater easily fits out of the way, under cabinets providing warm air for cold bathrooms and kitchens.

Now That’s Smart!
