1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your trust and support in choosing the eRAD, Radiant Heater. Please read the
instructions carefully before operating this product.
You have purchased one of the most advanced heating systems for indoor and covered outdoor
areas. The infrared radiant heater is characterized by a focused distribution of heat, which
transports heat evenly to where it is needed.
Keep these instructions for future reference and make sure to pass on the operating instructions
to any subsequent owner of the unit and ensure that any supplements received are included with
the instructions.
2. HOW FAR-INFRARED HEATING WORKS
At RADtec, our far-infrared radiant heaters’ energy output is best compared to the warmth of
the sun. To be more specific, our heaters operate just outside of “visible light” on the
electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared light has the lowest frequency of all and therefore also the
lowest energy level. Because of its wavelength, far-infrared “light” waves pass through the air,
traveling around air molecules with virtually no ability to collide with and “excite” (heat)
them. Instead, far infrared waves collide with the surfaces they encounter, gradually warming
the surface (people/objects) within the space. It is what makes infrared heating the most
efficient and healthiest way to heat any indoor or outdoor living space.
eRAD is the choice in electric radiant heaters for your outdoor or indoor areas
Our far-infrared radiant heaters are produced through our unique design and manufacturing
techniques. When finished, this production process delivers our unique aluminum alloy radiant
panels. We at RADtec refer to this as “slimline” technology. The surface of each panel is
prepared with a special coating. Inside, each heater is an embedded heating element. When
supplied with electrical power (turned on), this heating element generates and transfers heat to
people and objects.

3. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Discrete, stylish heating for outdoor and indoor areas
eRAD heaters can provide effective and energy efficient comfort heating for outdoor and indoor
areas. eRAD heaters have successfully enabled many entertainment venues such as restaurants,
pubs, and clubs to utilize their outdoor dining areas day and night, all year long. Within your
workplace or business, eRAD can provide heating for designated outdoor smoking and leisure
areas, as well as for workstation spot heating in factories, warehouses, and showrooms. Within
your home, eRAD can provide comfort heating for covered alfresco dining and BBQ areas,
patios, verandas, courtyards, and balconies.
Subtle, Slimline, No-Glow design
The stylish, slimline black face of the eRAD radiant heater does not emit light or glow when in
use, blending elegantly into your décor. Ceiling and wall mounting options ensure that your
valuable floor, lounge and table space is not wasted.
Efficient cost effective electric heating
The innovative design of the eRAD radiant heater enables comfortable and even heat dispersion
from the surfaces with minimal operating costs.
Design flexibility
Four eRAD models are available, ensuring the heating requirements of any outdoor or indoor
area is possible. Brackets for direct ceiling/wall mounting are supplied with the unit.
Virtually maintenance-free
The eRAD radiant heater incorporates no internal moving parts, ensuring quiet and virtually
maintenance-free operation.
Easy to use
The standard eRAD radiant heater is controlled with a simple on/off operation, and is either
plugged directly into a power supply, or hard-wired via a wall mounted on/off switch. The unit
takes approximately 10 minutes to heat up to maximum temperature and about 30 minutes to
cool down, depending upon the ambient temperature. The higher end units come supplied with
a remote control and a timed automatic shut-off function, giving you the convenience of remote
operation.
Environmentally Friendly
eRAD radiant heaters have no byproducts such as carbon or gas while operating.

Comfortable:
No wind, light or odor produced while operating this product. Indoor air remains free of
floating dust or allergens as a result.
Energy-Saving:
Heat generated efficiently with low-power input. Controlling temperature in this manner
allows you to save power and energy. Heating elements have a useful life of at least 30,000
hours of operation.
Physical Therapy:
Heat therapy is most commonly used for rehabilitation purposes. The therapeutic effects of heat
include increasing the extensibility of collagen tissues; decreasing joint stiffness; reducing pain;
relieving muscle spasms; reducing inflammation and increasing blood flow. The increased
blood flow to the affected area provides proteins, nutrients, and oxygen for better healing.
Infrared heating technology is a convenient way to heat parts of our body. It has the advantage
over direct-contact in that radiant energy can heat directly the area where the blood capillaries
and neuron terminals are. When the heat comes from a direct contact source, it has to heat the
external layer of the skin, and heat is transferred to the deeper layer by conduction.

6. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
1.
Qualified Installer:
A licensed electrician should be consulted for installation, and electrical installation should be
made in accordance with the national electrical code.
2.
Installation Conditions:
a.
Before starting the installation, you must ensure that the operating voltage corresponds
to that stated on the eRAD specifications label located on the side-panel of the heater.
Supply Voltage fluctuation range should be within ±10%. If condition not met, it
must be resolved before installation
b.
If there is a severe security risk in users’ electricity environment, the installation
should be halted until the security risks are eliminated.
c.
Power lines should be equipped with earth/water leakage protection devices and a
master switch.
d.
The ground wire needs to be connected to the grounding device in the building. If not,
please consult with a professional installer. DO NOT put ground wire to/near a gas
pipe, water pipe, lightning rod or telephone grounding wire.
e.
eRADusa recommends an installation height of no less than 7.22ft (2.2m) above the
ground.
f.
Never locate the heater where it may fall into a bathtub, pool, spa, or other wet area.
