SUITABLE LOCATIONS
The Threesome has been de signed specifi cally for cavity type ceilings. Flat roof in stal la tion is
NOT recommended.
Threesome must not be mount ed in areas subject to direct splash ing. Threesome must
be mount ed in the hor i zon tal position only. Un suit a ble for ‘ca the dral’ or ‘raked’ ceilings.
Three some comes with four infrared heat globes which emit harm less radiant heat.
Threesome is best po si tioned directly above the area requiring warmth. Before you start,
make sure your ceiling has at least 280mm clearance from the roof.
WHERE TO LOCATE
Radiant globe heaters are not designed to heat entire rooms. They provide instant,
concentrated heat to persons standing directly below the heat lamps. Therefore, units should
be located over the area where drying off takes place, not directly over a shower
or bath.
These heaters are not designed to be left on for extended periods of time, as this could
cause overheating and premature failure. Threesome units, even those without fans, should
not be covered or installed in situations which restrict the natural ventilation of the units for
cooling purposes. For applications where the heat lamps may be left on for periods longer
than 20 minutes, it’s recommended that a seperate timer is installed to automatically turn off
the heat lamps.
Ceiling insulation should be kept well clear of the units (at least 100mm). For optimum
performance, models with exhaust fans should be installed in areas with good ventilation,
to enable fresh air to fl ow into the room. It is recommended that there is at least a 500mm
clearance above the unit, and that the ceiling space is adequately ventilated to allow
appropriate air fl ow through the unit. Any restrictions on return air entering the room, or
exhausted air escaping from the ceiling space, will impair effectiveness and may contribute to
premature failure.
RADIANT HEAT
Threesome requires no warm up period because of its effi cient, radiant heat globes. Heat is
directed at you for an instant warmth you can feel, rather than gradually warming the entire
room. Because of this, Threesome only needs to be turned ON when you are in the room.
MOUNTING
1. Using this card in its open state as a tem plate, position it
in the area you want your Threesome and draw around
the edges with a pencil to mark the hole cutting size.
BE SURE TO CHECK ABOVE THE CEILING FOR
MIN I MUM SPACE OF 280mm (for optimum performance
allow 500mm or more clearance) AND THE LO CA TION
OF THE CEIL ING JOISTS. Ensure there is a minimum
of 100mm clear space between the Threesome unit and
any ceiling insulation.
2. Use a saw to cut the section along the drawn lines.
3. The lamp surround easily unclips from the main body by
lifting gently from any side. Re move it and the four heat
globes to avoid damage from knocks and vibrations.
Now insert your Threesome with both side springs pulled
inwards so that the body can pass through the hole
without dam ag ing the plaster. Return springs to original
position to fi x body se cure ly to the ceiling.
NOTE: Springs are adjusted to suit either 10mm or
13mm plasterboard ceiling.
4. Clip the lamp surround back onto the body making sure
both clips snap into place. Fit retaining spring as shown
in diagram.
5. The lamp surround has been shaped to position heat
globes correctly in the main body. Screw the four, large
heat globes through the lamp surround holes, tightening
fi rmly to ensure a good electrical contact. DO NOT
FORCE OR OVER-TIGHTEN. Screw centre light globe
into place. Centre lampholder is designed to accept 100
Watt (max), refl ector type, R63, screw in light globes.
