My elements rest on supports that are built into/attached to the back of the shroud. I don't think I could raise them up without raising piping, elements & all. Unless I were to knock/cut those supports off & rig something else up for support.
 
Not sure if I missed it, did the house get warm with the Slant Fin boiler?

I moved shroud and all. Their was enough vertical movement in the pipes to move the entire baseboard, element and all in my case and I just unscrewed them, moved them up and screwed them back in. These were typical slantfin 30's that came up through the floor so it might be a bit tougher if they come through the wall.
 
I'm happy to report that the carpet guy came out and did a good job yesterday afternoon. We woke up this morning and the house was at 75°F. I dialed the thermostat back down to 69°, and have been smiling since.

I'm just hoping that it is not just because it was in the low 40's today.
