Pre-Season Maintenance and Annual Inspection
•
To ensure your safety and years of trouble-free operation from the heaters, periodic service
and inspections must be done by a trained maintenance person or licensed electrician.

To obtain maximum performance from your heater(s) each year, we recommend the following
be performed at the start of the heating season:
1. Disconnect power to heater at main panel. Be sure that heating elements have cooled down.
2. Clean housing surfaces with a damp cloth.
3. Blow or dust off the element.
4. Repair or replace damaged power cables.
5. DO NOT HOSE-DOWN THESE HEATERS.

When power is provided to these heaters the heat-
er elements will take several minutes to achieve
full infrared output that can be confirmed by an
orange to dull red glow on the element surface.
The element under this condition is operating
between 1,500 and 1,600°F emitting medium
wavelength infrared energy.
can also be considered "radiation" is not harm-
ful, yet is very effective at heating objects and
surfaces that are within the line-of-sight of the
elements and the heater's reflective surfaces.
When power is provided or removed from these
heaters, you may hear unfamiliar sounds that are
caused by the expansion and contraction of metal
components in the heater. This is normal.
