Removing Old Baseboard Heaters and Upgrading to New Ones

Baseboard heaters can be very dangerous and are nearly the least preferred out of many heat sources available for use with a house. If you are wanting  to remove them the video up above shows exactly how to do that. The reason I took mine out was because the house nearly caught on fire because of them. I had to re-install new ones years later due to the potential of selling the house. I used wood heat in place of the baseboards for many years.
For baseboard heater removal:

Step 1: Turn off breaker and double check power is off w/voltage sensor.

Step 2: Unscrew panel to the right or left on the heater itself to expose wires.

Step 3: Unthread wire nuts and pull apart wires.

Step 4: Unmount the heater from the wall.

Step 5: Properly cap/disposition the wires. If you are not installing new baseboard heaters right away, install electrical box in wall and secure wires this way. If you are able to, leave the breaker/s off for the circuit until you are ready to install new heaters.

Installing upgraded baseboard heaters can be refreshing. They look new and there's a little extra confidence that they'll be a little safer and more efficient. Once you've made this decision to replace them, take a look at the two videos above. Installing them is very easy. Be sure you've double checked that the power is still off before messing around with any of the wiring. The first video shows you how to re-install the new baseboard heater itself. The second one shows you how to install the face mounted thermostat.
This is a nice feature because the temperature control itself is right on the face of the baseboard heater. This just gives you more options to adjust each heater individually. The cost on them is around $20 to $25 each. Using these can also provide some added safety reassurance in case the thermostat malfunctions and the heaters come on when not desired. This was the original reason I uninstalled the old baseboard heaters in the first place.
If you are performing all these upgrades, you may as well upgrade and install a new thermostat as well, if one exists. I want to emphasize safety here. Let me be clear, it is always best to hire a licensed electrician to do this work. If you choose to DIY, make sure to turn off the power and use a non-contact voltage sensor like the one in the link provided below.

Be careful and best of luck.
