R i s k o f F i r e
Keep combustible materials such as furniture, papers, clothes and curtains at least 1.8m (6 feet) from the front of the
heater and away from the sides and rear. If the heater is to be used outside (under an appropriate canopy), we
recommend that an indoor socket is used.
I n t r o d u c t i o n
The Carnival heater produces radiant heat like the sun, warming people and objects and not the air in between, providing the only form
of heat that will not blow out or away. The Carnival heater is primarily designed for indoor use but can be used outside providing it is
situated under an appropriate canopy.
Please read the enclosed instructions carefully before use. The safety of this heater is guaranteed only by the correct usage
in accordance with these instructions, therefore it is recommended that they are retained for future reference.

The heater is fitted with 5.0 meters of supply cable and a moulded
plug, therefore it is unnecessary to open the terminal box in order to
carry out normal installation of this product and should not be
interfered with.

We recommend using a RCD where applicable.

Please observe the minimum safe distance between the heater
body and any inflammable surfaces.
 If the supply cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or a similar qualified person in
order to avoid a hazard.

The Carnival heater is primarily designed for indoor use and is not
waterproof but can be used outside under an appropriate canopy
providing the ‘minimum distance from ceiling’ in table is adhered
to. When the electrical connection is outside, it is recommended
that a waterproof socket is used for the connection/terminal.
Otherwise, the plug should be connected to a socket indoors.

If in any doubt, please contact a suitably qualified electrician.
M o u n t i n g
 The Carnival SK15 models can be mounted in a horizontal (Fig. A)
or angled (Fig. D) manner depending on the model type - see
Table 1 for mounting orientation.
 When mounting the heater horizontally, do not position the heater
at an angle more than 90° and less than 45° from the vertical
mounting surface as shown in Fig. A. Ensure the terminal box is on
the underside of the heater when mounting.

When angled mounting the heater, ensure to leave a gap between
the heater and mounting surface (See Fig. D - DIM ‘A’). The heater
should always be angled downwards when mounting this way with
the cord from the terminal box at the bottom of the heater - see
Fig. D. Do not position the heater at an angle more than 45° and
less than 30° to the horizontal as shown.

Always allow the heater to cool before attempting to reposition/
move. Never attempt to move the heater while it is switched on!


1. Securely fasten the L-shaped heater bracket to the mounting
surface using the fixing holes in the bracket. Please refer to Table 1
for recommended positioning of the heater.
2. Fix in the required angular position by tightening the fixing bolt on
the bracket at the rear of the heater.
3. The heater bracket assembly can be used to adjust the direction of
the heater up and down (see Fig. B) and side to side (see Fig. C). This
is done by loosening the bolts fixing the heater to the bracket, and
then retightening once the correct position is achieved.
Always isolate the heater from the mains supply when adjusting the
angular position.

It is important that your replacement lamp is exactly the same as the one it was supplied with. Failure to fit the exact
same type could cause the heater to fail or even become dangerous.
Please contact Tansun Limited or your service agent to purchase your replacement lamp and state the model number
of the heater you wish to fit the lamp to.
H a n d l i n g t h e R e p l a c e m e n t L a m p
