on a wall. DO NOT MOUNT POINTING VERTICALLY DOWNWARDS. The heater is not designed for ceiling
mounting.
In areas with air movement/wind the directional Far Infrared spread may reduce by 1/3 to 1/2. In these
areas we recommend mounting at the lowest recommended height (see diagram 1) and proportionally
increasing the number of heaters.
CAUTION:
•
Ensure mains power is OFF before commencing installation.
•
Heater must not be located immediately below a socket outlet.
•
Joists, beams and rafters shall not be cut or notched to install the appliance.
•
Do not install the Advantage IR into a ceiling recess, nor adjacent to a heater that has been ceiling-
recessed.
•
The identification mark and model reference should be visible after installation.
•
The Herschel Advatage IR must not be attached so as to face or be close to any combustible material
(eg, wood or PVC cladding, fascia or soffit).
•
The fixed wiring insulation coming into contact with parts with a temperature rise of greater than 50°C
must be protected, for example, by sleeving having an appropriate temperature rating.

EXTERIOR USE:
The unit is protected against water ingress (protection level IPX4), however it is recommended that the unit
is installed in a covered outdoor area to give maximum protection and longevity against the effects of driving
rain, wind, frost, salt water contamination, etc. The canopy/roof/cover must be of a permanent nature,
there must be a minimum clearance of 0.3m (12”) between the cover and any part of the Advantage IR and
the cover must extend a minimum of 2m (79”) from the wall.
INITIAL USE:
There may be an odour or vapour from the heater on initial use or if heater has not been used for an
extended period. This is normal and is a result of a build up of dust.
USER MAINTENANCE:
The Herschel Advantage IR is maintenance free but to maintain appearance it should occasionally be cleaned
all over with a soft dry cloth. No abrasive cloths or cleaners should be used and appliances such as pressure
