Heatloss calculations provided by Cadet are an estimate only, based on the information provided to Cadet and completed to the best of our ability. Verification of information provided to Cadet is not part of the service.

Cadet does not advise using the minimum suggested heat in kilowatts, as this could lead to longer warm up times and less comfort to the end user. Cadet’s suggested kilowatts to be installed per zone is based on maximum comfort and efficiency.

We recommend that you contact a Certified Mechanical or Electrical Engineer if you have any question whatsoever about the accuracy of these figures.
