Packaging
Normally (depending model and order quantity) the heaters are packed per 1, 2, 4 of 6 in a box. Always
check the heaters for transport damage directly after receiving them. Note that the heaters will be a bit
discoloured by temperature due to a 5 minutes quality check after manufacturing.
The heaters are pre-assembled. In some cases, if there is a risk for damaging during transport, the
thermocouple sensor is separated from the gas safety device. Re-assembly can be simply done by
screwing the M8 nut (29) of the sensor back on the safety device (14). Do not tighten too strong.
The thermostat knob is always delivered separated from the thermostat valve.
1) Remove the protection cover from the thermostat valve.
2) Turn the knob on maximum temperature and push the knob on the valve.
3) Fix the knob by turning the large metal screw ring till it stops (at least 2 turns, hand tight).
For thermostats with a remote sensor only: bend the sensor line carefully (no sharp bends) to the
thermostat valve and secure the sensor line with a ty-rap around the red protection lining and the
thermocouple safety device (see picture). Note that the tubing is hollow, a sharp bend will close the
tubing and makes the sensor worthless. The chance of breaking the line at the entrance of the
thermostat knob is largely limited now.
Installation
Before installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and
adjustment of the appliance are compatible. Make sure that the gas and gas line are clean. Install a gas
filter and condensate trap before the heaters in case the gas or gas line is dirty or wet/oily. No guarantee
can be given on heaters operating on a gas or gas line that is not dry and clean.

Place of installation
The heaters are intended for use in well ventilated areas only. Do not install the heaters in situations
that are not well ventilated. See also below for more ventilation information. Check also your local
regulations for the ventilation and room size requirements. The number of heaters per building is
depending the type of building, the animals, the insulation, the climate and local wind conditions. Check
with your installer or distributor for a heat transmission calculation to determine the number of heaters
needed.
Make sure that the place of installation is free of draft (less than 1 m/s). Too much draft will make the
flames unstable and will result in a lower infra-red heat efficiency. It is advisable to install an alarm
system that reacts on temperature in case a temperature drop will cause damage. Find in the table
below a rough guideline for the installation height to start with. Adjust afterwards to the height based on
your personal preference and experience.
