I moved right into a apartment final 12 months that was in-built 1975. It has radiant warmth within the ceiling. There are 3 management panels, one in every bed room, and one in the principle dwelling space. There’s circuit breaker field within the 2nd bed room with a 2-pole circuit breaker labeled “radiant warmth”. We dwell in Southern California the place warmth shouldn’t be 100% needed. A small electrical heater within the dwelling space was sufficient this previous winter.
Right here is the issue: after I flipped the breaker to close the warmth of it solely controls the 2nd bed room and the principle dwelling space. The main bedroom was hotter than hell all winter lengthy. I can hear the warmth click on on and off in the master suite. The management panel in that room is unique and solely has a dial with no numbers. It’s turned all the way in which down, however I actually have little or no management of when it comes on. I had a handyman have a look at it. They mentioned it’s excessive voltage and presumably altering to a excessive (120v) voltage new panel with a display screen “would possibly” assist management it.
Right here is the purpose: I want to someway simply flip it off. I plan to be right here 10 to twenty years, and I’ll by no means want warmth in that room.
Does anybody have any recommendation?
