It provides a totally dry heat with no condensation, gas, fumes, or smell. Three carbon fibre tubes allow the heater's maximum temperature to be reached quickly. A highly polished aluminium reflector ensures maximum heat efficiency, and a PIR sensor makes it economical to run. It features three heat settings: 2000, 4000, and 6000W, with a heating area of 50m². Control can be manual or via remote (batteries not included). Safety features include over-heat protection, a stainless-steel protective guard, and a two-setting timer function. Mounting bracket and fixings are included. The PIR sensor ensures the heater is only on when people are present.
This heavy-duty, wall-mounted infrared heater is designed for large, open working spaces like workshops, garages, and warehouses. Its primary benefit is providing efficient, dry heat quickly without condensation or fumes, thanks to three carbon fiber tubes and a polished aluminum reflector. A potential caveat is the need for a remote's batteries, which are not included. Key features include three heat settings up to 6000W, a 50m² heating area, a PIR sensor for energy efficiency, and safety mechanisms like overheat protection and a protective guard.

Troubleshooting
Heater does not turn on
Ensure the heater is properly plugged into a functioning power outlet. Check the circuit breaker. Verify the remote control has working batteries and is within range, or try manual controls.
Low heat output
Check that the heater is set to the desired heat setting (2000W, 4000W, or 6000W). Ensure the PIR sensor is not being triggered by non-human movement. Clean the protective guard for unobstructed heat flow.
Heater turns off unexpectedly
This could be due to the overheat protection activating. Ensure there is adequate ventilation and nothing is obstructing the heater. Check if the PIR sensor has lost detected presence.
Remote control not working
Replace the batteries in the remote control. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the heater. Move closer to the heater.
