BBHD12-277 Heater

12) Treatment Suggestions
Adjustments must be made to treatment procedures for the given conditions in a
treatment area. Effective treatment may require larger or multiple heaters depending on
the size and conditions of a given treatment area. Correct power must be supplied to the
unit. Please refer to the quote for rated voltages and amperages.
Treatment Recommendations:
1. Use seals to block any gaps in the doors.
2. Use high temperature insulation to cover vents and air conditioners, isolate spaces, and
cover cement.
3. Insulate windows.
4. Insulate / cover any vents or through-wall AC units.
5. Furniture might have to be rearranged for better heat circulation (including mattress and
box spring).
6. Fans to help circulate the heat are recommended. Fans must be rated to run in high
temperature and should have low amperage draw to prevent tripping a breaker and
losing treatment time.
7. Correct voltages must be applied for the heaters to run properly. The BBHD12 heaters
are rated for 120V and 277V single phase.
8. The starting temperature of the area will affect the time needed to reach temperature. A
very cold area will take longer to reach lethal temperatures than a warm one.
9. Use multiple heaters for larger areas.
10. Any fan or ventilation system that either draws in outside air or vents out the heated air
from the treatment area will result in heat loss.
11. Any door or window that is left open, even slightly, will result in heat loss.
12. Every space is different, and treatment procedures must be adjusted to accommodate
the particulars of the space being treated.
