Installation and operating instructions
Positioning
The heaters must be placed so that they
cover the area to be heated, see fig. 1. The
normal mounting height is 2–3 metres above
the ground/floor. A rule of thumb for infrared
heaters is that 600–800 W/m² increases the
experienced temperature by about 10 °C. The
output demand can be reduced if the area to
be heated is protected. If the area only has a
roof, at least 800 W/m² should be installed.
600 W/m² is sufficient if the area has three
walls. For enclosed areas, the output demand
must be calculated. Optimum comfort is
achieved if the heat is distributed from at
least two directions.
Mounting
IHS is installed horizontally on walls with
supplied bracket. For other mounting
alternatives, e.g. in the ceiling, on a floor
stand, under a parasol or awning, see
accessories. For minimum distances, see
diagrams on introductory pages.
Replacing the lamp
The heat lamp is of the highest quality and
unless it is subjected to mechanical strains in
the form of vibrations and impact it will last
for a long time. The service life is dependent
on the ambient temperature and how the
heater is installed. When the heater is
installed freely and outdoors the temperature
will be low and the life of the lamp longer.
The lamp must be replaced by an installer
or other skilled person.
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Wait until the unit is cold.
3. Check that the replacement lamp has the
correct output and voltage.
4. Fit the new lamp. Note do not touch the
lamp with your fingers, wear gloves or the
like.
5. The protective tube must be refitted to the
cables, so that the cables are not damaged
when the grille is fitted.
6. Reassemble the unit again.
General Instructions
Read these instructions carefully before
installation and use. Keep this manual for
future reference.
The product may only be used as set out in
the assembly and operating instructions. The

Application
Infrasmart is a compact, halogen infrared
heater which can be controlled via an app,
remote control (included), or built-in push-
button.
The Frico Infra app is available for both iOS
and Android. It has a range of up to 50 m and
can control up to 8 infrared heaters.
Infrasmart is available in several IP classes
and colours. They are suitable for balconies,
outdoor areas and terraces.
Start-up
When the unit is used for the first time or
after a long period of disuse, smoke or odour
may result from dust or dirt that has collected
on the element. This is completely normal
and disappears after a short time.
Connection
IHS is equipped with a 1.9 metre cord with
plug for connection to an earthed outlet
socket. The connection cord must not rest
against the unit as the surface becomes hot or
can be hit by thermal radiation. Contact an
electrician if the cord needs to be changed.
As the halogen lamp has a high starting
current the wall socket should be fuse
protected by a slow burn fuse.
In the event of uncertainty contact an
electrician.
