How to prep the space for AlorairGarage
Heater Installation
AlorairGarage may be installed in two ways:
1. Ceiling Mounted ā AlorairGarage has mounting brackets designed to accommodate two mounting styles:Ā
Ā a. Surface mounting using screws for direct-to-ceiling installation.Ā
Ā b. Suspended mounting using chains with which to dangle the heater from the ceiling.
Ā
2. Floor/Standing ā AlorairGarage has four rubber bumpers or feet that elevate the unit by one inch when placed on the floor or any flat surface.Ā
Surface Mounting
- Lift the heater into position on the ceiling and mark the points for the screws.
Ā Pre-drill the marks to prevent splitting, if youāre screwing through woodĀ
IMPORTANT:Ā AlorairGarage must be screwed into a stud or support beam. Plywood sheets are not strong enough to hold the heaterās weight.
- Ā Lift the heaterĀ again into positionĀ and drive the mounting screws in place.
Adjusting air speed
- Use the remote control to change the temperature settings for the heater.
Ambient Temperature Settings:
60Ā°F – 120Ā°F - Choose your preferred fan speed.
Fan Speed Settings:
500 CFM / 1,000 CFM
Suspended Mounting
- Lift the heater into position on the ceiling and mark the points for the screws.Ā
Pre-drill the marks to prevent splitting when you screw the anchors in place.Ā Ā
IMPORTANT:Ā AlorairGarage must be suspended from a stud or support beam. Plywood sheets are not strong enough to hold the heaterās weight.Ā
- Attach the ends of the chains to the heater before lifting the unit into position and hooking the other ends of the chains to theĀ anchorsĀ on the ceiling.Ā
adjusting the louvers
- Manually lift or lower the louvers to adjust the flow of the hot air. We recommend adjusting them before installation to avoid burn-related injuries.
- If you must adjust the vent while the heater is on, use a long pole to nudge the louvers at the right angle.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT adjust the louvers with your bare hand while the heater is running.
