5' Hydronic Assembled Enclosure for Panel-Trim Baseboard

Argo Panel-Trim II Baseboard Enclosure – 5 Ft. Section

The Argo Panel-Trim II series provides a high-output enclosure solution engineered for perimeter hydronic heating applications in both commercial and custom residential settings. Model 55PT2CO-5 is a 60-inch section constructed from pre-painted 18-gauge cold-rolled steel and designed for use in systems requiring maximum output in limited wall space environments.

Product Overview

This enclosure system is compatible with standard hydronic finned-tube elements and is particularly effective in locations with significant heat loss—such as older buildings, glass-intensive architecture, or slab-on-grade designs. Its modular configuration allows for precise adaptation on site using a complete range of factory-matched accessories and end components.

Installation Notes

This product is designed for straightforward installation using Argo-supplied mounting hardware and brackets. For optimal results, installations should conform to ASHRAE spacing recommendations for wall clearance and heating element orientation. Connection points and tubing penetrations must be properly sealed to maintain finish integrity and airflow control. Professional installation is advised to ensure performance expectations and code compliance.

Applications

• Perimeter heating zones with limited linear wall space
• Commercial and institutional retrofits requiring durable enclosures
• Custom residential systems where high output and compact design are priorities
