LOCATION SUGGESTIONS
Unless heaters are installed over 12 ft.
high, it is generally recommended that
all radiant heaters be mounted on an
angle to assure that radiant warmth is
distributed from the sides rather than
straight down on the heads and shoul-
ders of the people being warmed.
NOT RECOMMENDED
RECOMMENDED
Head too close
Aim point should be at feet,
or behind worker or user
Warm floor reradiates heat. Warmer air rises
from floor. Some heat reflects from floor.
Mounting a heater directly over a table or other
obstruction will block the energy, primarily
heating the object. It is best to move heater to
the side, allowing complete body coverage.
30° to 60° from horizontal
face down. Best angle
approx. 45°.
When outdoors, hang heater under protec-
tive roof or weather cover when ever possible.
Even though heater is all-weather construc-
tion, it will last longer and look better if it is
protected from in and snow.
Install fixture to heat the area from the “cold
side” if possible. This helps compensate for
increases body heat losses due to exposure
Feet too far away
