reflectors will create smoke during the initial period of operation. This condition is normal and
temporary .
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation to adequately clear any smoke from the space.
Check to ensure that any alarm system is not unduly activated during start up.
CAUTION
IMPORTANT
THERMOSTAT SETTING FOR COMFORT
Infrared radiant (IR) heating system provide comfort with the effect of radiant heat and ambient
air heat.
If your IR system is controlled with a TruTemp thermostat that senses radiant heat, then set the
thermostat to the desired comfort temperature (ie: 65°; 68°; 20°C).
If your IR system is controlled with a standard 24V or 120V thermostat that senses only air tem-
perature, then start with a thermostat setting that is 5° to 7°F (3° to 5°C) lower than the desired
comfort temperature. Some trial and error setting may be required to ‘fine tune’ the comfort tem-
perature that best suits your site and provides most economical operation.
