TPI TBS Thermostat Kit, Built-In, Single Pole, Bi-Metal, White/Ivory

The thermostat plate is what gives it the color. A matching plate is sent with each baseboard heater purchased, which is separate from the thermostat. If they order a white heater, then a white plate is sent that is made to fit over a TBD Thermostat. If they order an ivory baseboard heater, an ivory plate is sent. A single pole thermostat operates off one circuit, this means the power to the unit can only operate in one direction or electrical current. Because of this the single pole thermostat cannot be turned off, but only turned down.
