General Instructions
Read these instructions carefully prior to
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
guarantee is only valid should the product be used
in the manner intended and in accordance with
the instructions.
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 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.
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, under a parasol
or awning, see accessories. For minimum
distance, see diagrams on the introduction
pages.

Infrasmart IP67 - IHSxxx67
Installation and operating instructions
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.
Start-up
When the unit is used for the first time or after
a long period of non-use, smoke or an odour
may result from dust or dirt which has collected
on the element. This is completely normal and
disappears after a short time.
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.
