Baseboard heat-distributing units are divided into two types: radiant-convector and finned tube. The radiant-convector-type baseboard is made of cast iron or steel. The units are provided with air openings at the top and bottom to permit circulation of room air over the wall side of the unit. The wall side of the unit has extended surface to provide increased heat output. A large portion of the heat emitted is transferred by convection. 1, record 1, English, - radiant%2Dconvector%2Dtype%20baseboard
