Important Safety Advice
Because the Creda Outdoor Patio Heater contains no
moving parts little maintenance is required. Before
undertaking any maintenance work on the heater due
attention must be paid to the following:
This heater is designed to be horizontally wall mounted
only, it must not be ceiling mounted.
Always ensure a safe mounting height, at or above a
minimum height of 1.8 metres from ground level, so that
the heater can not be touched when in operation.
The heater must be wall mounted level ± 5º to the
horizontal.
Do not locate the heater immediately above or below a
fixed socket outlet or connection box.
Alwaysdisconnecttheheater from the electricity supply
before attempting to work on or near it.
Always ensure a safe means of access using an access
tower or properly supported ladder.
Do not cover the heater.
Keep combustible materials away from the heater.
Donotpositionpatio furniture, sunshades, awnings and
other combustible materials too close to the heater.
Do not look into the heater for prolonged periods
Do not use the heater if the element is broken - as injury
may occur.
Allow adequate time (minimum of 30 mins.) for the
element and body casing to cool before attempting to
work on the heater.
Do not allow the supply cord to sit or hang in front of the
heater while in use.
If the supply cord is damaged, the heater should not be
used, it must be replaced by an assembly available from
the manufacturer or service agent.
Note: Provide sufficient slack to the cable to allow for
angular adjustment of the body.
Always handle the Halogen bulb without touching the
glass (by gripping the ceramic ends gently but firmly) to
maximise bulb life.
General
The CSP2 heater is especially designed for use on Patio
Areas. The heater provides warmth and comfort for
recreational areas. The CSP2 uses Halogen elements which
produce a high proportion of their output in the short-wave
infra-red. This provides a high comfort factor – similar to the
natural energy from the sun.
The IPX4 rating means the appliance is suitably rated to be
permanently installed either internally or externally.
Electrical
The installation of this appliance should be carried out by a
competent electrician and be in accordance with the current
IEE wiring regulations and any local or insurance regulations.
The CSP2 is designed for use on a 230-240V AC single
phase supply. A double pole isolating switch with a minimum
separation of 3mm in each pole must be fitted to facilitate
isolation. This switch must either be positioned inside a
building or have an IP rating against water ingress suitable
for external installation. The appliance must be supplied
through a residual current device (RCD) having a rated
residual operating current not exceeding 30mA. The RCD
for the CSP2 should be type 3 or C rated, with a tripping
coefficientof7-10 times therated current. Any otherswitching
device should be Tungsten lamp rated. The appliance must
be connected to a socket-outlet having an earthing contact.
Installation – Wall Mounting
The heater is supplied with an integral wall bracket which
may be fixed through the mounting holes to any suitable
structure. The bracket allows the heater to be inclined at the
required angle. The recommended fixing height to the centre
line of the bracket is 2.0m from ground level - see Fig. 2. The
integral wall fixing bracket may be removed by fully
unscrewing to facilitate its fixing. The siting of the heater
should be such as to allow an even and uninterrupted
distributionof radiation tothe area(s)to beheated. Theheater
is most effective when the beam angle is inclined down at an
angle of between 30º to 45º to the vertical - see Fig. 2. When
deciding upon the best location, consideration must be given
to the following requirements:
a. Avoid structures which might vibrate e.g. crane gantries.
These could adversely affect element life
b. Comfort and safety could be compromised unless the
heater is mounted at or above 1.8m from ground level.
c. Allow a minimum of 500mm minimum clearance between
the top of the heater and any horizontal surface- see Fig.1.
