Radiant footprint
HEATSTRIP® electric heaters produce
radiant heat which heats objects rather than
the air. Therefore, it is imperative that
objects to be heated (ie. people), are within
the direct radiant footprint of the heater.
The diagram to the left shows the radiant
footprint of HEATSTRIP® Classic with
Remote and App, and is an approximate
guide based on a fully enclosed outdoor
environment.
This diagram shows that the maximum heat
output is found directly under the heater, and
the temperature decreases as you move
away from the heater.
It highlights the importance of maintaining
recommended mounting heights, and if
possible, positioning the heater directly
above the area to be heated.
Note that the temperature is the same for all
4 models, regardless of the wattage.
However, as the size increases and the
length of the unit increases, the radiant
footprint will be longer.
The below diagrams show the approximate heating area for each model, based on both an indoor and outdoor enclosed
environment, with direct overhead mounting.
The radiant footprint is reduced in angled, wall mounted installations.
