INTRODUCTION Advanced Radiant Systems’ Residential Range (RS) is exactly what it sounds like; a residential grade, unitary infrared heater. The RS is designed to optimize performance as well as aesthetics. The compact, preassembled, unitary design and custom mounting brackets make for a simple and minimally invasive installation.
INSTALLATION Installation Sequence The heater is sent with all parts necessary for installation with the exception of chain. It is recommended that the heater be hung as high as possible and along an uncluttered wall to give the reflector a widest possible “view” of the space to be heated. Avoid installation directly over vehicle parking, over cabinets, or where an open door will interfere.
INSTALLATION Outdoor Installation For outdoor installations the heater must be installed not more than 8” from beneath awnings, and not less than 24” from back and side as shown in Figure 4. If the heater cannot be protected from the elements by an overhang, then a protective cover must be installed as shown in Figure 7, Figure 8 and Figure 9.

In all cases, heaters must be grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 in the USA, and the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C22.1 in Canada, and must comply with all local requirements.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Starting Sequence of Operation • • Turn the thermostat up. When the thermostat calls for heat, the blower motor will energize. • • When the motor approaches nominal running RPM, the air-proving switch closes and activates the ignition module.
