Heater Location
The DIRP electric heater produces radiant heat, which heats objects and people rather than the air. The DIRP heater
must be installed in such a way that objects and people are within the direct path of the heater.
It is recommended that the DIRP heater be installed indoors or in outdoor spaces where there are 1, 2, 3, or 4
enclosed sides.
CAUTION:
When installing outdoors it is recommended the heater is positioned where it will be protected from
exposure to extreme weather such as snow and ice.
Maximum heat is directly under the heater, and the temperature decreases as you move away from the heater. It is
recommended that the heater be positioned directly above the area to be heated.
