Cadet Heater replacment?


Posted by Gary on May 19th, 2003 11:15 AM

Overview of home: My wife and I are in process of buying 1990 1700 sq ft home out of Washington State (mild/touches of harsh climate). The inspctor notified us of faulty/DANGEROUS in-wall CADET HEATERS in home. The home has 4 bedrooms upstairs, with the "living spaces" mostly downstairs. The home also has a woodstove, which I hope to use often in the future. (we have 3 toddlers, so current safety is a factor with the woodstove for now). We are also hoping to convert to propane, or Natural Gas (not likely available) to heat the water, dryer and perhaps run a gas stove /furnace. Due to current equity in home we are selling, and the great deal on the home, we will have a few thousand dollars available to apply towards housing improments/cost efficiency if we desire. Any advice?


Questions:
Can a person such as myself simply buy the "replacment inners" to these wall units for the bedroom units?

I am conserned with ducting/alergies with heating. Is this a realistic consern with residential systems? (is it costly to replace the filters?)
