3. Installation
Wall Mounting Option
Keep combustible materials such as furniture, curtains, paper and clothing a
minimum of 1.8 m from all surfaces of the heater.
• Select a suitable location for the install and ensure the minimum spaces around the
heater are maintained to ensure good airow and safe operation of the heater (see
diagram 1). The heater must be installed a minimum of 1800 mm from the oor.
• There are two types of horseshoe bracket: “H” which are to be attached to the
heater have threaded screw holes and“W” to be attached to the wall have
unthreaded screw holes.
• Once a suitable location has been found, see diagram 2 for what will be the nal
positioning of the “H” horseshoe brackets secured on the heater. Use this as
reference for mounting the ‘”W”brackets to the wall.

• Drill two holes into the wall 85 mm apart from each other vertically as per diagram
3. Using the xings provided attach one of the “W”horseshoe brackets to the wall,
ensuring the tabs are facing outwards (see diagram 4). The bracket can be used as a
template if required.
• For the 1.2 kW model measure 700 mm horizontally (for the 2.4 kW model measure
1300 mm horizontally) from one tab hole to another and drill another two holes in
line with the previous two and attach the second“W” horseshoe bracket, ensuring
the tabs are facing outwards.
• Using diagram 2 for reference, take one of the “H” horseshoe brackets and feed
the tabs into the channel on the back of the unit with the tabs facing inwards.
This must be done from the side without the power cable and slide towards the
opposite end.
• Take the second “H” horseshoe bracket and feed the tabs into the channel on the
back of the unit again with the tabs facing inwards, (the distance between the
screw holes will be approximately 660 mm from the rst bracket for the 1.2 kW
model and 1260 mm for the 2.4 kW model). Note tabs on wall face outwards and
tabs on the heater face inwards so distance between tabs is smaller on the heater.
• Loosely screw the“H”brackets in place on the back of the unit using the wing
nut bolts provided and with the help of a second person lift the unit up to the
horseshoe brackets mounted on the wall to ensure they match.
• Once the brackets have been checked and the positions are correct, lower the unit
and tighten the wing nuts holding the “H” brackets on the back of the unit in place.
• With the help of the second person lift the unit up to the horseshoe brackets on
the wall, choose any two corresponding screw holes to give the desired angle.
Ensure the brackets on the wall and the unit overlap so that the wing nut bolt will
t through and secure both together, with the wing nut bolt going in from the
outside of the bracket, fasten tightly to secure with the wing nuts on the inside of
the bracket (see diagram 4).

Ceiling Mounting Option
Keep combustible materials such as furniture, curtains, paper and clothing a
minimum of 1.8 m from all surfaces of the heater.
• Select a suitable location for the install and ensure the minimum spaces around
the heater are maintained to ensure good airow and safe operation of the heater.
The heater must be installed a minimum of 200 mm from the wall (see diagram 6).
When mounted on the ceiling the lowest part of the heater must be a minimum of
1.8 m from the oor.

• There are two types of horseshoe bracket: “H” which are to be attached to the
heater have threaded screw holes and“W” to be attached to the ceiling have
unthreaded screw holes.
• Once a suitable location has been found, see diagram 3 for what will be the nal
positioning of the “H” horseshoe brackets secured on the heater. Use this as
reference for mounting the ‘”W”brackets to the ceiling.
• Drill two holes into the ceiling 85 mm apart from each other. Using the xings
provided attach one of the“W” horseshoe brackets to the ceiling, ensuring the tabs
are facing outwards. The bracket can be used as a template if required.
• For the 1.2 kW model measure 700 mm horizontally (for the 2.4 kW model measure
1300 mm horizontally) from one tab hole to another and drill another two holes in
line with the previous two and attach the second“W” horseshoe bracket, ensuring
the tabs are facing outwards.
• Using diagram 2 for reference, take one of the “H” horseshoe brackets and feed
the tabs into the channel on the back of the unit with the tabs facing inwards.

• Once the brackets have been checked and the positions are correct, lower the unit
and tighten the wing nuts holding the “H” brackets on the back of the unit in place.
• With the help of the second person lift the unit up to the horseshoe brackets on the
ceiling, choose any two corresponding screw holes to give the most appropriate
angle. Ensure the brackets on the ceiling and the unit overlap so that the wing nut
bolts will t through and secure both together using the wing nuts, with the wing
nut bolt going in from the outside of the bracket, fasten tightly to secure with the
wing nuts on the inside of the bracket (see diagram 4).
