RADIANT HEATING PRINCIPLES

Radiant  heat  is  widely  regarded  as  the  most 

comfortable,  healthiest  and  most  natural  form 

of outdoor heating available. This heating type 

is based on the same primary source of heat 

we know - the warmth of the sun. It warms you 

and the objects around you instead of the air.
The warmth felt from the sun is not warm air but 

infra-red  energy.  Like  the  sun,  radiant  energy 

from the heater moves in straight lines, directly 

warming  the  people  and  objects  in  its  path 

which  in  turn  acts  as  small  heat  convectors, 

giving  off  their  own  gentle  heat  to  enhance 

people feeling warm.
This radiant heating principle is common to all 4 

models, regardless of the wattage of the heater. 

As  the  wattage  and  product  length  increases 

the heating footprint will be greater.

FEATURES

This outdoor radiant heater uses electricity as the heating medium. It operates on the infrared radiant heating 

principle directly warming people and objects in the area instead of the air within it. 

Ease of Installation & Operation

Suitably sized 3 pin plugs are provided to allow for ease of installation to a wall socket. It is designed to be 

plugged into a circuit that has an operating isolation switch within reach of the user which enables the heater to 

be switched on or off.

Silent Operation

Electric element operation eliminates fan noise.

Draft Free

Non fan operation also means no drafts.

IP65

Water ingress protection allows for safe cleaning of the external heater casing using a typical low pressure 

garden hose or by using a wet sponge.
