Unless heaters are installed over 12 ft. high, it is generally recommended that all radiant heaters be mounted on an
angle to assure that radiant warmth is distributed from the sides rather than straight down on the heads and shoulders
of the people being warmed.
· Install fixture to heat the area from the “cold side” if possible.
This helps compensate for increased body heat losses due to
exposure.
· Warm floors reradiate heat. Warmer air rises from floor. Some
heat reflects from floor. Mounting a heater directly over a table
or other obstruction will block the energy, primarily heating the
object. It is best to move heater to the side, allowing complete
body and floor coverage.
· When outdoors, hang heater under protective roof or weather
cover whenever possible.
· Even though heater is all-weather construction, it will last
longer and look better if it is protected from rainand snow.
· Angle fixture 30º to 60º from horizontal face down.
· Best angle is approximately 45º.
