HEATING INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CEILING & WALL MOUNTING

• Heaters must be installed according to the
  minimum installation clearances shown in these
  diagrams

• Heaters must be away from the fourth wall.

The stated clearance to combustible
materials represents surface
temperature of 65°C above room
temperature. Building material with a
low heat tolerance (such as plastic,
vinyl siding, canvas, tri-ply etc.) may
subject to degradation at lower
temperature. It is the installer’s
responsibility to assure that adjacent
materials are protected.

WARNING
MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN
HEATERS MEASURED FROM EDGE OF
HEATER MUST BE AT LEAST 500mm

WARNING – Outdoor Installation

This heater MUST be permanently installed by
an authorised/licenced person. Do not perform
maintenance, or carry out installation or assembly
procedure while electrical power is switched on. Wait
2 hours after switching off the heater before handling.

WARNING – Outdoor Installation

Ensure that the heating unit is not directly
exposed to rain or water contact. For longest
product life and to maintain product appearance,
mount heater under cover and protect from rain
and weather.

OPTION 1

To exit the cable through the side of the wall
mounting bracket, start from step 1.
1. Unscrew and remove plug-in wall bracket (a).
2. Attach extra supplied cable gland into the same
hole from the outside of the bracket. Fasten in
place
with the metal cable gland nut from inside the
bracket
(b).
NOTE: Continue to step 3 below
OPTION 2
To exit the cable through the wall bracket directly
into your ceiling or wall cavity, start from step 3.
3. Attach mounting bracket to ceiling or wall using
fasteners appropriate for the surface (c). Ensure
the bracket is firmly secured with fasteners in all
4 holes before proceeding. For wall mounting ,
ensure the silver plug or cable gland (a) is facing
upwards.
! WARNING: The bracket mounting surface
MUST be protected from rain. This is necessary
to stop water entering the bracket & maintain
IPX4rating.
4. Ensure M6x14mm screws are inserted into both
sides of heater bracket with 6mm of the threaded
shaft exposed under the screw head (d).
5. For cable exit through the side of the wall
bracket: feed heater power cable through cable
gland in wall bracket (e).
NOTE: This is easier when the top of the cable
gland is
completely removed when feeding the cable
through the bracket. The cap can then be inserted
onto the cable for fastening.
6. For cable exit into the ceiling or wall cavity:
make a small hole in the black foam on the bracket
mounting surface to pass the cable through. Make
electrical connection now or feed cable into wall
or ceiling for subsequent connection (f). This is
described under ‘Electrical Installation’ on page 11.
7. Insert heater bracket into mounting bracket by
hooking M6 screws into place in mounting slots
(g).

8. To fix heater at desired angle, fully insert M3x10mm positioning screws (included with wall bracket) on
both sides of mounting bracket whilst holding heater in the desired position (h). The heater can positioned
straight, or be angled 30deg either way.
9. Fit the smaller cover over the heater bracket so that the slots pass over the shafts of the M6x14mm
mounting screws (i). Fit the larger cover over the smaller cover in the same way from the opposite side of
the bracket (j). Use angled covers if heater is angled. Use straight covers if heater is not angled.
10. Tighten mounting M6 screws firmly, ensuring covers fit snugly against the bracket on all sides (k).

CEILING RECESS (SOLD SEPARATELY)

WARNING
Instructions below are suitable for ceiling surfaces
10-30mm thick. For ceiling surfaces thicker than 30mm,
contact Bromic for alternative installation options.

WARNING
The heater shall, under no circumstance, be covered with
insulating material or similar material.

WARNING
Individual clearances to combustibles are fixed
minimums to each individual option and cannot be
combined between Option 1 and Option 2

WARNING
In ceiling recess installation, the heater must be
completely protected against water contact
from above.

WARNING
Joists, beams and rafters shall not be cut or notched
to install the heater.

WARNING
MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN
HEATERS MEASURED FROM EDGE OF
HEATER MUST BE AT LEAST 500mm

1. Prepare ceiling cut-out with dimensions from images on P.9
to fit ceiling recess frame (a). Heater must be installed with
heater surface at least 2400mm above the floor level, with
500mm clearance to the nearest wall on all sides of the heater.
Minimum distances to combustibles within cavity must be
according to only one of the two options shown.
2. From below, bring ceiling frame up and into ceiling cutout.
Fasten ceiling frame into cut-out at both ends and centre using
appropriate screws (b). Which locator hole to use is dictated
by the thickness of the ceiling surface. The fastening screws
must be inserted into a strong material that can easily support
the weight of the heater. Your installation may require reenforcing
before the frame can be safely installed.
3. Unscrew and remove plug-in wall bracket. Attach extra
supplied cable gland into the same hole from the outside of
the bracket. Fasten in place with metal cable gland nut from
inside the bracket (c).
4. Feed heater power cable through cable gland from inside of
wall bracket (d).
5. Ensure M6x14mm screws are inserted into either side of
heater bracket with 6mm of the threaded shaft exposed under
the screw head. (e).
6. Insert heater bracket into mounting bracket by hooking M6
screws into place in mounting slots (f).
7. Fix heater to bracket in straight position using M4x10mm
positioning screws on either side of mounting bracket (g).
Ensure M6 screws are sitting fully in the mounting slots (as if
the heater were hanging from the wall bracket).
8. Fit the smaller, straight cover over the heater bracket so
that the slots pass over the shafts of the M6x14mm mounting
screws (h). Fit the larger cover over the smaller cover in the
same way from the opposite side of the bracket (i).
9. Tighten mounting screws firmly, ensuring covers fit snugly
against the bracket on all sides (j).
10. Firmly tighten cable gland in wall bracket so that cable
does not move when pulled.

CEILING RECESS (SOLD SEPARATELY)

11. Attach the bracket end-cap to the wall bracket using the
4 M5 screws and nuts provided (k).
12. Carefully remove the 4 M5 screws fastening the heater
mounting bracket to the back of the heater. Be careful not
to move or put any force on the bracket. Place the 2 halves
of the ceilling recess mounting plate over the screwholes.
Re-insert the screws & tighten firmly. (l)
13. Make electrical connection from heater to power supply.
This is described under ‘Electrical Installation’
14. Raise one long side of heater up into ceiling frame cavity
& then raise whole heater into cavity. (m)
15. Rotate the heater into level position in the ceiling cavity
(n) and then lower down onto the ceiling frame . Ensure
the heater brackets are hooked over the ceiling frame and
sitting in the slots on both sides. (o)
