Product Overview
Why choose Heatstrip electric radiant heaters for your outdoor or hard-to-heat indoor area?
As there is typically constant air movement in an outdoor or open indoor area, many conventional patio heaters rely on
convection heating which works by heating the surrounding air. This can be quite impractical for these areas, as this
heated air can easily blow away with natural air movement. Radiant style heaters transfer heat directly to objects through
infra-red waves.
Whilst convection heaters heat the air in between objects, radiant heaters heat the surface of the objects themselves.
HEATSTRIP electric radiant heaters are more effective within an outdoor or uninsulated indoor area because they provide
targeted warmth directly to the people and objects in their path.
Discrete, stylish heating for undercover outdoor and indoor open areas
Using the radiant heating principle, HEATSTRIP can provide effective and energy efficient comfort heating for undercover
outdoor and indoor open areas. HEATSTRIP has successfully enabled many entertainment venues such as restaurants,
pubs and clubs to utilise their outdoor dining areas day and night, through all seasons. Within your workplace or business,
HEATSTRIP can provide comfort heating for designated outdoor smoking and leisure areas, as well as for workstation
spot heating in factories, warehouses and showrooms. Within your home, HEATSTRIP can provide comfort heating for
undercover alfresco dining and BBQ area, patios, verandas, courtyards and balconies.
Subtle, minimalist design
The stylish, slimline black face of the HEATSTRIP does not emit light or glow when in use, blending elegantly into your
décor. Ceiling, wall and umbrella mounting options ensure that your valuable floor and table space is not wasted.
There are 3 different series of products within the Heatstrip product category. Each has a different temperature output,
making them ideal for different applications. Below is a list of some common applications, to assist with the selection of the
most effective and efficient series. This is a general guide only, please refer to the Product Manual for each product, for
more information.
HEATSTRIP Max (THX models) is an ultra high temperature heater used for uncovered or open areas with a
mounting height of 2.4 m to 3.5m.
HEATSTRIP Design (THH models) is a premium high temperature heater and is primarily used for outdoor rooms
where there is 1,2 3, or 4 enclosed sides, with an ideal mounting height of 2.1 m to 2.7m.
HEATSTRIP Indoor (THS models) is a medium intensity heater used for protected indoor applications.

Spot Heating Principle
In most outdoor or difficult-to-heat indoor applications, therefore are 2 options when looking at the size and quantity of the heater required. Option 1 is to comfort heat the entire area based on the total dimensions of the space,
regarding of whether the entire area is being fully occupied. Option 2 is to spot heat the high use areas, such as
over outdoor tables, BBQ’s, lounges, assembly lines or indoor workstation.
Often it is more practical and efficient to spot heat these areas. Spot heating will help to reduce the initial capital
cost, as well as the running costs. Spot heating will allow the area to be “zoned”, meaning heating only the areas
that are being used, such as tables in a restaurant or outdoor alfresco area.
The top table shows a comparison between spot heating over a table, or heating an entire area.
The bottom table shows the flexibility of using HEATSTRIP to provide a comfortable environment, even when the
layout of the area is very unusual.

Radiant Footprint
HEATSTRIP electric heaters produce radiant heat which heats objects
rather than the air. Therefore, it is imperative that objects to be
heated (ie. people), are within the direct radiant footprint of the
heater.
The diagram to the left shows the radiant footprint of
HEATSTRIP Design, and is an approximate guide
based on a fully enclosed, outdoor
environment.
This diagram shows that the maximum
heat output is found directly under the
heater, and the temperature decreases
as you move away from the heater.
It highlights the importance of
maintaining recommended mounting
heights, and if possible, positioning the
heater directly above the area to be
heated.
Also, the temperature (ie. surface
temperature) is the same for all 3
models, regardless of the wattage. However, as
the size increases and the length of the unit increases, the radiant footprint will be larger.
The below diagrams show the approximate heating area for each model, based on both an indoor and outdoor enclosed
environment, with direct overhead mounting.
Radiant footprint is reduced in angled, wall mounted applications.

Selection Guide
Prior to selecting the exact model and quantity required for your application, please ensure the correct range of Heatstrip
heaters is being used.
Below is an overview of the Heatstrip options.
HEATSTRIP Max (THX models) is an ultra high temperature heater used for uncovered or open areas with a
mounting height of 2.4 m to 3.5m. Also suitable for difficult indoor environments such as showrooms, production lines,
warehouses etc.
HEATSTRIP Design (THH models) is a premium high temperature heater and is primarily used for outdoor rooms
where there is 1,2 3 or 4 enclosed sides, with an ideal mounting height of 2.1 m to 2.7m. Ideal for hard to heat indoor applications or moist environments where an IP55 rating is required.
HEATSTRIP Indoor (THS models) is a medium intensity heater used for protected indoor applications, such as
sunrooms, school classrooms, halls, gymnasiums etc.
General recommendations for HEATSTRIP Design:
Ideal mounting height: 2.1m to 2.7m. Maximum is 3m in a protected outdoor environment.
Ideal mounting location: ceiling mounted, directly above area to be heated (eg. above a table)
Based on the radiant footprint of the previous page, for a protected outdoor area, a minimum of 500W/m2 is re-
quired. For indoor spot heating, a minimum heating capacity of 400W/m2 is recommended.
The below table outlines the coverage of each HEATSTRIP Design model (in m
with direct overhead mounting. For example, for an outdoor area that is protected from prevailing winds by walls, café
blinds etc, Model THH1500AEU will cover 3m2 and Model THH2400AEU will cover 4.8m2.

), based on 3 different scenarios,
For angled wall mounting applications, the coverage can be reduced by up to 40%. The maximum heat projection from the wall is 2m.
