2.2 HEATING AREA
The infrared strip heater produces radiant heat which heats objects rather than the
air. Therefore, it is imperative that objects to be heated (i.e. People), are within the
direct radiant footprint of the heater.
The below diagrams show the approximate heating area for each model based on an
indoor and outdoor enclosed environment. The diagram shows that the maximum
heat output is found directly under the heater, and the temperature decreases as
the user move away from the heater.
