Specifications

Introduction
Your Eurom Golden Comfort infrared heater warms up not primarily the air in the room, but all objects before the heater. By means of that your infra red heater is effective and very qualified to be used in the open air as well.
The Eurom Golden Comfort has some serious advantages:

• high degree of water tightness (totally dust- and watertight, IP65)
• the special ‘Golden Comfort tube’ lamp: a superior lamp with an expected lifetime of 8000 working hours. Under normal circumstances it will not be necessary to change the lamp.

Use the infra red heater for the objective for which it is made: to heat (the object in/on) a room or terrace. Don’t hang for example wet textile over the lamp to dry, but always notice the minimum distances to the equipment.

The distance between the bottom edge of the appliance and the floor must be at least 1,8 meter. There must be a distance of at least 0,3 meter between the appliance and the ceiling, roof or other cover. If the covers consist of flammable material (for example, canvas etc.), the distance has to be at least 1 meter and if you focus the radiator upwards, at least 2 meter. There must be a distance of at least 0,5 meter at each side between the appliance and walls orthe like. When you install the appliance outside, pay attention that it doesn’t catch excessive wind load.
