Suggestions to keep in mind with IR heaters Ireland & the UKInfrared heater dual element Electric Outdoor heaters patio and restaurants People sitting outside comfortably

  • Keep the space between you and the ALF80 infrared heater clear.
  • For best IR heating results use the ALF80 in a semi enclosed space or spot
  • This way you reduce wind chill
  • Use a motion sensor & timer

By keeping the space between you and the ALF80 infrared heater clear you feel the most heat. IR heating does not warm the surrounding air. This means that if there is something blocking the infrared heat energy, you will not feel the heat.

IR heating heats objects not the air around you.

Motion sensors are a great way to get the most from your outdoor heaters in Ireland and the UK. When there is motion, your outdoor heating infrared turns on. With a timer, you can have it set to turn off. Our patented elements are not affected by the number of times you turn the element on and off. This in turn saves you money.

Infrared Heater ALF60 & ALF80 Q & A

 

We grouped the ALF60 & ALF80 into one section. The major difference between these two heaters is the amount of energy used to create infrared heat.

 

These two infrared heaters are ideal for outdoor or indoor commercial use that have a complicated space to heat.

 

  1. Can I wire my ALF60 & ALF80 heater into my socket in Ireland? 

 

Simply no. The ALF60 draws 60kW. And the ALF80 draws 80kw. You will need to hire an electrician to set up these IR heaters in Ireland, the UK, and Europe. You will need to hardwire both the ALF60 & ALF80 into a fuzzbox.

 

These powerful dual element heaters are great for those with complicated spaces like warehouses and large restaurants that have people coming and going throughout the day.

 

**You will need to hire an electrician.**

 

  1. How do I get the most out of my ALF60 & ALF80 outdoor heater?

 

Make sure to set up a timer and a motion sensor.

 

We recommend that you mount the ALF60 & ALF80 heaters on a wall or hang from the ceiling or recess into the ceiling. By hanging or recessing into the ceiling you get a wider area of coverage.

 

Keep the space between your infrared heater and you clear.

 

Q.Do the ALF60 &ALF80 infrared heaters heat the surrounding air?

 

Infrared heating does not heat the surrounding air. Rather your IR heater heats you directly. So, you will find that you will get the best results by using the ALF60 & ALF80 heaters in an enclosed space.

 

An enclosed space means you are taking measures to prevent wind chill from occurring.

 

  1. What is wind chill?

 

Wind chill is when wind blows that heat away from your skin. You suddenly feel chilled when there is a slight breeze.

 

Infrared heats you and objects directly. When you stand in front of your IR outdoor heater, your body  feels the heat immediately. If you stand to the side of the heater, you will not feel the heat.

 

  1. How does my infrared heater save me money?

 

We have broken down the costs of our electric heaters in a different section.

 

However, your question still warrants being answered.

 

First, you get direct constant heat. You are not losing any heat if there is a slight breeze. You feel 100% of the heat produced.

 

Second, our heaters can be connected to a motion sensor. You may ask, “can’t all heaters be connected to a motion sensor?”

 

Short answer is, “yes, all heaters can be connected to a motion sensor.”

 

What makes our heaters different is that our heaters are true motion sensors. We use quality chromium alloy elements. The chromium alloy elements are not really subject to the sudden energy surge that tungsten elements are subject to, as a result you are getting an element that lasts 7000+ hrs.

 

In simple English, you can turn your heater on and off as often as you wish. The element lasts a long time. You save money.

 

You save money by setting a timer to turn off the element. You save money because your heater will last at least 3 years. You are only heating a designated area and are not losing money by heating unnecessary space.

 

Finally, our heaters produce 94% heat and 6% light. Our pure aluminium reflector reflects 100% of the heat back out onto you and your family and guests.

 

**You will need to hire an electrician to set up the ALF60 & ALF80.

 

  1. Is infrared heating safe?

The short answer is yes.

 

Infrared heating is basically the same heat that you get from the sun without the UV rays.

 

Make sure to read about the health benefits of infrared heating.

 

The heater will be mounted high enough on the wall; so, no children or pets will be able to touch the element.

 

  1. Is infrared heat a dry heat?

 

Short answer: yes. However, IR heat does not dry out your skin. You may remember that IR heating heats you directly. The heat is pleasant and relaxing.

Of course, you still need to drink water and keep yourself hydrated.

 

  1. How long does it take for the ALF60 & ALF80 electric heaters to produce heat?

 

We like to say less than a minute. You may start to notice heat within about 30 seconds or so.

 

  1. How often do I need to clean the ALF60 & ALF80 electric heaters?

 

We recommend cleaning the reflectors when they start to get dirty. The mirrored polished alumimium reflector reflects the heat onto you.

 

The alumimium reflector just needs an occasional wipe down. The surface is super easy to keep clean.

 

**Turn off the outdoor heater. Remove the protective shield and wipe down the reflector with a clean cloth.

 

  1. Do I need an electrician to install the ALF60 & ALF80?

 

Yes, You will need to hire an electrician to set up the ALF60 & ALF80 IR heater in Ireland, the UK, and Europe. You will need to hardwire the ALF60 & ALF80 into a fuzzbox.

 

You will need to mount your outdoor patio heater ALF60 & ALF80 onto a wall or recess into the ceiling.
