FAQs
Is this a complete heater or just a replacement part?
This is a replacement heating element (lamp) and requires installation into a compatible infrared heater fixture.
What voltage does this lamp require?
This lamp is designed for a 110V electrical system.
What are R7S ends?
R7S ends are a type of electrical connection typically found on linear halogen and infrared lamps, characterized by two prongs or sleeves at each end of the bulb.
How do I clean the infrared lamp?
Ensure the heater is cool and powered off. Wipe the lamp gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Will this lamp work in any heater?
No, this lamp is specifically for heaters designed for 1500W, 110V input and compatible with R7S connection ends. Always check your heater's specifications.
How long does this type of lamp typically last?
The lifespan of an infrared lamp can vary depending on usage patterns and environmental conditions. However, as a replacement element, its performance is generally consistent until the filament reaches the end of its operational life.
Does the ruby coating affect the heat output?
The ruby coating is primarily designed to filter out visible light and reduce glare, making the heat feel more comfortable. It does not significantly reduce the infrared heat output.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Ensure the heater is plugged into a functioning 110V outlet. Verify that the lamp is correctly seated in its R7S sockets. Check the heater's power switch and any associated fuses or breakers.
Reduced heat output
Check for any obstructions or blockages in front of the heater. Ensure the lamp is clean; dust or dirt can impede heat radiation. Verify the power supply is stable at 110V.
Lamp flickers or turns off intermittently
This could indicate a loose connection at the R7S ends or an issue with the heater's internal wiring. Power off the heater, allow it to cool, and carefully re-seat the lamp. If the problem persists, consult the heater's manual or a qualified technician.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This lamp is a replacement heating element and requires installation into a compatible infrared heater fixture. Ensure the power is completely disconnected from the heater before attempting installation. Carefully slide the lamp into its designated sockets, ensuring the R7S ends are securely seated.
