ABSTRACT:
A sheet metal housing for containing a heater unit including an electric resistance heating element and a fan for circulating air through the heating element, and for protectively supporting such a heater unit within the interior space of a vertical building wall, the housing having a pair of legs extending below a body portion which encloses the heating element and fan unit, supporting the heating element and fan unit at least a minimum distance above the base of a wall, in which either of the legs can be bent upward to a horizontal position giving the entire housing, including the horizontally extended leg, a length equal to the usual spacing between adjacent vertical studs of a wall, so that the housing can be supported at a height greater than the minimum above the base of a wall by fastening one end of the housing to a stud and fastening the outwardly extended leg to the stud near the opposite end of the housing. The upper rear wall of the body of the housing, and the rear edges of the legs, slant toward the front of the housing, making it possible to retrofit the housing into an already-existing wall, legs first, through an opening whose height is less than the height of the housing including its legs.
