WATER INGRESS PROTECTION
A&J Natural Stone Heating Panels are rated to a standard enabling them to be located within splash zones in a bathroom which means they can be placed in the splash zone above a sink. Installation in potentially wet or humid rooms must be carried out by a suitably qualified installer and comply with local electrical safety requirements.
Installation must be such that:
The heater must not be able to become detached from the brackets and fall into a bathtub, shower, swimming pool or other water containers
Switches and other controls cannot be touched by a person in the bathtub, shower, swimming pool or other water containers.
IF IN DOUBT, DO NOT INSTALL
A&J Natural Stone Heating shall not be liable for any loss, damage or injury caused or resulting from inadequate fitting or incorrect placement of heaters close to water sources.
POSITIONING:
This is an infrared heater. It heats objects by transferring energy directly from the heater into adjacent objects and spaces
Therefore, consider placing the heater where it will not be immediately obstructed by objects like furniture or where it cannot effectively radiate out, such as at the edge or in the corners of a room
Objects placed in front of the heater will heat up and can prevent effective heat dispersion into the room. Avoid placing it opposite windows or open doorways
Only specific models are designed for ceiling mounting, please check with your A&J Natural Heating consultant before mounting to the ceiling
The minimum distance from the back side of the panel must be 1.5 inches from the mounting surface
This will always be the case if the mounting hardware provided is used
Objects in front of the panel must be at least 2.5 inches away and 8 inches away from the sides. The distance from the sides of the heater must also be compliant if it is intended to recess the heater into the wall or ceiling. Failure to do so will cause excess heat to build up behind the heater and will void the warranty
