Why choose HEATSTRIP® electric radiant heaters for your outdoor or hard-to-heat indoor area?
Many convenonal pao heaters rely on convecon heang which works by heang the surrounding air to provide comfort. This can
be quite impraccal for outdoor and open-indoor areas as there is typically constant air movement which can easily blow away the
warmed air. Radiant style heaters transfer heat directly to objects through infra-red waves.
While convecon heaters heat the air between objects, radiant heaters directly heat the surface of the objects themselves.
HEATSTRIP® electric radiant heaters are more eecve within an outdoor or uninsulated indoor area because they provide targeted
warmth directly to the people and objects in their path.
Discrete, stylish heang for undercover outdoor and indoor open areas
Using the radiant heang principle, HEATSTRIP® can provide eecve and energy ecient comfort heang for undercover outdoor
and indoor open areas. HEATSTRIP® has successfully enabled many entertainment venues such as restaurants, pubs and clubs to
ulise their outdoor dining areas day and night, through all seasons. Within your workplace or business, HEATSTRIP® can provide
comfort heang for designated outdoor smoking and leisure areas, as well as for workstaon spot heang in factories, warehouses
and showrooms. Within your home, HEATSTRIP® can provide comfort heang for undercover alfresco dining and BBQ area, paos,
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 mounng opons ensure that your valuable oor and table space is not wasted.
Ecient, cost eecve electric heang
The innovave design of the HEATSTRIP® enables comfortable and even heat dispersion from
the heater surface with minimal operang costs.
Design exibility
Four HEATSTRIP® models are available, ensuring the heang requirements of any undercover
outdoor or open indoor area is possible. Brackets for direct ceiling or wall/ceiling angled
mounng are supplied as standard.
Oponal HEATSTRIP® accessories include beam or xed umbrella mount brackets, extension mount brackets,
chain suspension brackets, twin mount brackets and ush mounng enclosures.
Minimal maintenance
The HEATSTRIP® incorporates no internal moving parts ensuring quiet and virtually maintenance free operaon.
Australian Product
Designed, engineered and assembled in Australia the HEATSTRIP® Classic is fully backed by a 24 month residenal warranty, and 12
month commercial warranty.
Stylish design— The Heater that is a Design Feature!
The aracve HEATSTRIP® comes with a standard black face and anodised alloy rear casing.
Easy to use
The standard HEATSTRIP® Classic is controlled by a simple on/o operaon, either when plugged directly into a power point, or hard-
wired via a wall mounted on/o switch. The unit takes approximately 15 minutes to heat up to maximum temperature and
approximately 30 minutes to cool down, depending upon the ambient temperature. Please don’t forget to turn it o.
We recommend installing your HEATSTRIP® with a mer controller to ensure the unit is turned o aer a pre-set me. Thermolm
recommends Model TT-MTM controller, which includes a mer funcon and temperature control funcons.

Operating cost comparison
In many instances, patio heaters powered by gas bottles are used as an outdoor heating source. The below
table shows the operational cost comparison between HEATSTRIP® and a bottled gas outdoor heater. Not only
are the hourly running costs considerably less with HEATSTRIP®, but you never have to worry about running out
of gas, no refilling, no unattractive gas bottle to waste space; and HEATSTRIP® actually improves the value of
your property.
Notes:
1. Calculations of hourly running cost for outdoor gas heater is based on $25.00 average to fill a 9kg gas bottle and
average running time of 9 hours. $25.00 / 9 hours = $2.78 per hour
2. Electricity rate of 20.0 cents/kWh
3. All calculations are excluding GST.
1.8kW x 0.20 cents = $0.36 or 36 cents per hour
2.4kW x 0.20 cents = $0.48 or 48 cents per hour
3.2kW x 0.20 cents = $0.64 or 64 cents per hour
Calculations of yearly running cost are based on 180 hours usage
180 hours x $2.78 = $500.40 yearly running cost for outdoor gas heater
180 hours x $0.36 = $64.80 yearly running cost for 1800W HEATSTRIP®
180 hours x $0.48 = $86.40 yearly running cost for 2400W HEATSTRIP®
180 hours x $0.64 cents = $115.20 yearly running cost for 3200W HEATSTRIP®

Spot heating principle
In most outdoor or difficult-to-heat indoor applications, there are 2 options when looking at the size and quantity
of the heaters required.
Option 1 is to comfort heat the entire area based on the total dimensions of the space, regardless 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 in-
door workstations.
Often it is more practical and efficient to spot heat high use areas. Spot heating will reduce both the initial capital
cost as well as the ongoing running costs. Spot heating will allow the area to be “zoned”, meaning only the areas
that are being used are heated, such as tables in a restaurant or outdoor alfresco area.
Option 1 and 2 show a comparison between heating an entire area or spot heating over a table.
The bottom layout 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® Classic, 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.
Note that the temperature is the same for all
4 models, regardless of the wattage.
However, as the size increases and the
length of the unit increases, the radiant
footprint will be longer.
The below diagrams show the approximate heating area for each model, based on both an indoor and outdoor enclosed
environment, with direct overhead mounting.
The radiant footprint is reduced in angled, wall mounted installations.

Selection guide
General recommendations for HEATSTRIP® Classic:
• Ideal mounting height: 2.3m to 2.5m. Maximum is 2.7m in a fully protected/enclosed 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 table below outlines the coverage of each HEATSTRIP® Classic model based on 3 different scenarios with di-
rect overhead mounting. For example, for an outdoor area that is protected from prevailing winds by walls, café blinds etc,
Model THH 1500A will cover 3m2 and Model THH2400A will cover 4.8m2.
For angled wall mounting applications, the coverage is reduced by up to 40%.

Table layout
For the majority of outdoor applicaons, the most eecve method is to spot heat a table or similar area. The diagrams
below provide an easy selecon guide for the approximate model and quanty of heaters required to heat common resi-
denal table sengs.
Selecons are based on HEATSTRIP® Classic being mounted at 2.4m from the oor in a fully enclosed undercover outdoor
area.

Installation Requirements
The ideal mounting position for the HEATSTRIP® Classic is on the ceiling directly above the area to be heated. If this is
not possible, HEATSTRIP® can be mounted on a wall and angled downwards. In this situation, ensure the mounting height
is in the range of 2.1m to 2.7m and the table is within 2.5m of the wall.
For mounting heights more than 2.7m, we recommend the use of the optional accessories to reduce the height of the
heater to 2.3m—2.5 m. This will increase the effectiveness of your HEATSTRIP®. Refer to the Mounting Accessory section
for more information.
Electrical connections/GPO’s should not be located at the back of the heater. They should be located outside the physical
footprint of the units to minimize heat build-up behind the units.
If the heater is to be mounted on an incline (e.g. vaulted ceiling), ensure the electrical connection is located at the lowest
point of the heater.

The heating surface must never
