USING THE HEATER IN A GREENHOUSE
THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY TO A
GREENHOUSE SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY A
COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE lEE WIRING REGULATIONS. IT IS
RECOMMENDED THAT RESIDUAL CURRENT
CIRCUIT BREAKER (RCCB) PROTECTION IS
USED.
The heat output of the Cold Watchers are similar to that
of a small single burner greenhouse paraffin stove,
however it has the advantage that they may be
switched on overnight as a precaution against frost
with the knowledge that they will not consume
current on the frost setting unless the temperature
in the vicinity of the heater falls below approximately
3° C to Minus 5° C.
If only one heater is being used in a full size
greenhouse, it will be necessary to partition off that
which requires frost protection, using for example
heavy duty polythene sheeting, which can also be
used to line the glazing of the greenhouse to reduce
heat losses and therefore power consumption.
As a guide to the effectiveness of a single Cold Watcher
in a greenhouse, it will raise the temperature of the
shaded section of the greenhouse by approximately
8 to 9° C.
If higher temperatures are required then the volume
partitioned off should be made smaller. In this
respect the only accurate method is to set the
thermostat to a position which keeps the temperature
at the desired level by using a maximum/minimum
thermometer, positioned in the most critical part of
the area to be heated. Although the heater is designed
to be splash-proof it is recommended that it be removed
during periods when spraying is being carried out in the
greenhouse.
USING THE HEATER IN AN AIRING
CUPBOARD
The heater is suitable for use in an airing cupboard
where there is no other heat source, or where the
hot water cylinder is so well insulated that insufficient
heat is available for airing clothes.
The airing cupboard should be ventilated by means of
vents for example in the upper and lower parts of the
door. This will allow circulation and removal of moisture
laden air.
The heater should be positioned in the lower part of the
airing cupboard.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT PRECAUTIONS ARE
TAKEN TO PREVENT CLOTHES FROM FALLING
ON TO THE HEATER CAUSING IT TO OVERHEAT.
This could take the form of a wire mesh positioned
across the lower part of the airing cupboard not
less than 300mm above the heater. (Also refer to "Heater
Dimensions and Minimum Operating Distances").
