Infratech CD-Series 61.25-Inch Dual Element 240 Volt, 6000 Watt, 25 Amp Outdoor Heater in Beige - CD6024BE

Overall Dimensions: 61-1/4 in long, C-shaped body about 2-1/2 in deep, per the Infratech C/CD-Series manual and CAD drawing

The Infratech CD6024BE is a 61-1/4 in, 6,000 W dual element electric infrared heater in a beige finish, for covered patios, porches and outdoor dining areas that need concentrated warmth. Two medium wave quartz elements warm people and surfaces rather than the air, so a breeze does not carry the heat away, and with a duplex switch you can run one element for half power or both for full power.

Features

• 6,000 W from two 3,000 W quartz elements, about 20,472 BTU
• Medium wave infrared heat with a soft glow, no odor and no combustion
• Half power or full power when the two elements are wired to separate switches
• Inset swivel brackets for wall or ceiling mounting with a floating look
• 304 stainless steel body in a beige finish (Infratech offers eight standard colors)
• UL listed for indoor and outdoor use; made in the USA

Installation Notes

Infratech requires the heater to be permanently installed and hardwired by a licensed electrician to the National Electrical Code and local code, using components listed for outdoor use with at least an IPX4 rating and a means of disconnect. Mount it level with the reflector angled down, 30 to 60 degrees on a wall or up to 30 degrees on a ceiling, never lower than 6 ft above the floor for UL labeled heaters (8 ft for UL/CUL labeled heaters). Keep 6 in clear behind the heater face, 18 in from the sides and ends and from adjacent walls, 6 in from the ceiling, and 36 in clear in front.

Infratech INF input regulators control heaters up to 15 A. Each 3,000 W element in the CD6024 draws 12.5 A, so a dual INF regulator or a duplex switch can run the two elements separately for half or full power. In New York City, a hardwired outdoor heater is electrical work for a licensed electrician, and terrace or rooftop installs in multifamily buildings often need board or building approval.
