2.2 Heating area
The infrared strip heater produces radiant heat which heats objects rather than the air. Therefore, it is
imperative that objects or people to be heated, 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.
