Locating the heater

WARNING:
!
Use of this heater in coastal salt-air regions can result
in corrosion of the aluminum body and refl ector, and
premature failure of the heat lamp. Corrosion and
failure resulting from use in coastal areas is not
covered by warranty.
1 The heater is designed for wall or post mounting and must
be installed at a minimum height above the fl oor. See "12.1
Recommended mounting and coverage specifi cations" on
page 15 for details.
2 Ensure that clearances from the heater meet or exceed the
minimum required clearances in "9.5 Minimum required
clearances" on page 7: Above; to the Floor; to a Side wall;
and to combustible materials.
3 Models CIR 150-1 I and CIR 150-1 O must plug in to a
properly grounded 120 V outlet controlled by a timer switch.
Ensure the electrical outlet is readily accessible to be able to
disconnect the heater when needed.
Models CIR 200-2 must be connected to a properly grounded
240 V copper wire circuit controlled by a timer switch.
Model CIR 400-2 O must be connected to two (2) independent
grounded 240 V copper wire circuits controlled by a timer
switch.
4 The heater should never be placed nor mounted directly
under a wall electrical outlet.
5 A minimum distance of 36˝ (92 cm) must be maintained
between the front grille and fl ammable items (e.g. curtains),
walls and other structures.
6 Do not allow an electrical cord to pass in front of the heater
or to touch any hot surface.
7 Since the appliance radiates heat, no obstruction or object
such as furniture should be placed between the heater and
the person being heated.
8 Do not use heater on a soft surface, like a bed, where air
openings may become blocked.
9 A heater has hot surfaces and potentially arcing or sparking
parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or
fl ammable vapors or liquids are used or stored.

Mounting the heater

1 Mount the heater securely to a surface or structural member,
and maintain at least all minimum clearances indicated in
"9.5 Minimum required clearances" on page 7.
2 Use the mounting bracket supplied with the heater - see "9.5
Minimum required clearances" on page 7.
3 Hardware to fasten the mounting bracket to the structure
is fi eld supplied by the installer since the type of hardware
fastening is determined by site conditions.

4 Models CIR 150-1 I and CIR 150-1 O: If at all possible, locate
the mounting bracket so that the electrical cord 8' (2.4 m) can
be plugged into an electrical outlet (grounded 120 V) without
stretching the electrical cord taut. See important notice ("9.2
General installation instructions" on page 6) regarding
the use of an extension cord.
5 Never allow an electrical cord to pass in front of the heater or
to come into contact with any hot surface of the heater.
6 The mounting bracket fastens to the structure using fi eld
supplied bolts or lag screws through two holes in one side
of the bracket. The heater bracket fastens to the mounting
bracket through the outermost hole on the other leg of
the mounting bracket using the bolt, lock washer and nut
supplied.
7 Fasten the mounting bracket plumb and level so that the
heater is oriented horizontally on the long axis.
8 Ensure that the mounting bracket is fi rmly fastened to the
structure with bolts or lag screws (fi eld supplied) of suffi cient
strength and integrity to support the weight and prevent
movement of the heater. It is recommended to fasten the
mounting bracket to a structural member (wall stud, etc.).
