Heat Area
The DLW electric heater produces radiant heat, which heats objects and people rather than the air. The DLW heater
must be installed in such a way that objects and people are within the direct heat area of the heater.
It is recommended that the DLW heater be installed indoors or in outdoor spaces where there are 1, 2, 3, or 4
enclosed sides.
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, with an ideal mounting height of
96" to 105" (2.4 m to 2.7 m).

shows the approximate heated area of each model, based on both an indoor and outdoor enclosed
environment. The approximate temperature is the same for all models, but longer models produce a larger
radiant footprint.
