General
The heater has a loading of 2KW. It is designed for permanent wall mounting
and is suitable for operation on A.C. electricity supply having the same

In rooms of less than 9 – 11 cubic m. (350 - 400 cubic ft.) 1kW output should
be selected, otherwise nuisance tripping of the thermal overload cut-out
may occur.
