2.1. Product Features
It is worth noting the following product features:

Alfresco heaters have a unique patented design to generate intense heat almost instantly.

There are no moving parts so Alfresco heaters do not break down.

Alfresco heaters can be used both indoors and outdoors.

The alloy reflectors are 98% pure mirror-finish aluminium. This boosts heat output significantly
while keeping running costs low.

Alfresco heaters reach full working temperature in 60 seconds.

Virtually none of the energy is wasted as light. This is because 94% of the electricity is converted
into heat. This compares to approximately 45% for gas and 60% for halogen heaters.

Alfresco heaters are different to other standard outdoor heaters as they use medium-wave
infrared. Most other heaters use short-wave infrared.

The use of soft-start technology allows Alfresco heaters to be fitted with motion sensors. This
means that the heater will operate only when people are present.

The exterior casing is manufactured from G4 stainless steel so is very resistant to rust.

Alfresco heater elements are guaranteed for 7,000 hours of continuous use.
