Calculation of Power Requirements
To determine the number of panels required for a given area, one must divide power
rating of the panels into the total power requirements of the area to be heated.
For large open space, fully heated, 100 watts per square metre is recommended. For
spot / zone heating 150 watts is recommended. For fully insulated, closed buildings
50 watts per square metre would be sucient.
Additional wattage maybe required when heating is used intermittently or when fast
warm ups times are required. Lastly remember that in a typical installation, the
panels are thermostatically controlled and so do not run continuously.
First Time Use
When using the panels for the rst time or after a long time period of non use, one
must allow additional time (sometimes up to several days) to heat up the fabric of
the building. Once the core of the building is warm and dry, future heating loads
will be greatly reduced.
Installation
The IHP range of infrared heater panels are a component part of a designed heating
system. To comply with Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 Lot 20, this prod-
uct must be installed and controlled by an external timed thermostat control system.
The supplied product ex must be wired to this control system in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions to achieve the minimium ecodesign requirement.
Considerations should be given to the addition of open window sensing, occupancy
sensing and out of building heating control systems such as a mobile phone applica-
tion or other device to further increase energy savings. There are many sophisticated
control systems available. Please contact us for assistance if required.
