Herschel Aspect XL Far Infrared Heaters

The Herschel Aspect XL range must be installed by a professional electrician: this is not a DIY task. The Aspect range is designed for a wall mounted fitting only and must be installed as per the manufacturer’s guidelines. Please ensure they are mounted 2.3 – 2.5m from the floor and no lower.

Though infrared radiant heat is not affected by the movement of air, the sensation of far infrared can be offset by persistent gusts and breezes that may come in from open windows, doors or roller shutters. This is because wind-chill can cool your body quicker than radiant heat can warm it, so please bear this in mind when choosing an installation location for your heater. In ideal conditions, the Herschel Aspect will be able to heat areas up to 9m², however, this can be reduced by up to a third in exposed locations.

The IPX4 rating of this product means that it is protected against splashing water and is suitable for installation in outdoor locations. For an outdoor fitting, the manufacturer recommends installing this heater beneath a permanent shelter that extends at least 2m from the wall. The heater itself should be at least 0.3m from the shelter’s surface. This is to ensure the unit has a long service life and will be well protected against particularly harsh weather conditions.

To maximise the efficiency of your infrared heaters, we would highly recommend fitting them with additional controls. This can make them more versatile to use and also assist in reducing energy consumption to a minimum. We offer control units such as push-button timers, motion sensors and dimmers for outdoor heaters, as well as a wide range of thermostats for indoor installations. Though they may cost a little extra, heating controllers quickly pay for themselves by reducing your energy usage and your heating bills.
