General
This heater is designed to provide intermittent spot heating for small domestic
environments such as garages and workshops.
The heater works by gradually raising the air temperature in a garage or workshop
and should be positioned above head height approximately 1.8m - 2.3m - (see Fig. 2).
The PFH30E heater has an output of 3kW.
The angle the appliance is mounted at may be adjusted horizontally and vertically -
see Fig. 1 and Fig. 4.

The installation of this appliance should be carried out by a competent electrician
and be in accordance with the current IEE wiring regulations. The supply cable is not
supplied with the appliance.
Before undertaking electrical installation, ensure the electricity supply is disconnected
from any relevant fixed wiring.
With the bracket cover removed proceed to feed the supply cord through the cable
entry at the bottom of the mounting bracket (drill knock-out to suit). Connect the wires
to proper live and neutral of the internal termonal block.
Wall Mounting

• Use the wall mounting bracket (see ‘x’ in Fig. 3A) as a guide to mark the hole
positions on a suitable wall (a minimum height of 1.8 metres is required from the
floor level to the bottom hole of the bracket - see Fig. 2).
• Solid brick or concrete block walls must be drilled and plugged using the screws
and wall plugs provided. Fix the wall mounting bracket to the wall and slide the
heater down on to the bracket as shown in Fig. 3A.

Ensure there is enough clearance above the wall mounting bracket for
the user to slide the heater onto the bracket
• The heater is held in place to the wall mounting bracket with 2 screws - see Fig. 3B.
• Once electrical connections have been completed - see ‘Electrical Installation’, reattach the bracket cover (see ‘y’ in Fig. 3C) by sliding into place and secure with
the screw - see ‘z’ in Fig. 3C.
