General recommendations

Read these instructions carefully before using 
the appliance for the first time. Keep these in-
structions in a safe place for future reference.

The warranty is only valid if the units 
are used in accordance with the Frico 
installation and operating instructions

Area of use

The radiant heaters are primarily used to 
create comfortable heating on terraces, 
balconies, openair restaurants etc. They can 
also be used for selective heating in storage 
rooms and workshops.

The Comfortinfra is also approved for 

installation in bathrooms and shower rooms.

Protection class: IP24.

Positioning

The heaters must be placed so that they 
enclose the area to be heated, see fig. 1 and 2. 
The normal assembly height is 2–2,5 metres 
above the ground/floor. 

A rule of thumb for infrared heaters 

equipped with metal tubular elements is that 
750–1000 W/m² increases the experienced 
temperature by about 10 °C. The output 
demand can be reduced if the area to be 
heated is protected. If the area only has a 
roof, at least 1000 W/m² should be installed. 
750 W/m² is sufficient if the area has three 
walls. For enclosed areas, the output demand 
must be calculated. A green house for 
example requires 250-300 W/m². Optimum 
comfort is achieved if the heat is distributed 
from at least two directions.

Mounting

Mounting is very easy using the two brackets 
(supplied as standard), which can be 
mounted on the ceiling or wall in different 
angles. When angle mounting CIR on the 
ceiling, standard brackets can not be used 
(the distance to the ceiling will be smaller 
than the minimum distance 150 mm). The 
distance between the brackets is adjustable 
and can be chosen according to the most 
appropriate place for installation.  CIR can 

also be suspended from wires. For minimum 
mounting distance, see Fig. 3.

•฀CIR฀may฀only฀be฀mounted฀horizontally!
•฀The฀mounting฀brackets฀enable฀mounting฀

in three different angles for ceiling or wall 
mounting. Parallel to the wall/ceiling, 18° or 
36° angle.

•฀Choose฀the฀desired฀angle฀and฀fasten฀the฀

bracket onto wall or ceiling. The holes are 
Ø5 mm, c-c distance is 25 mm.

•฀Fasten฀the฀heaters,฀snap฀into฀the฀brackets฀

and   secure it by tightening the securing 
screws (104 mm long) and the domed nuts 
(spanner width 7 mm).

Electrical installation

The electrical installation should be 
permanent and carried out by a qualified 
electrician in conformity with prevailing 
regulations. The CIR must be preceded by 
an all-pole switch. CIR must not be placed 

directly฀under฀a฀wall-outlet!฀A฀terminal฀block,฀

which enables connection to other heaters is 
situated on the same end of the heater as the 
name plate.
Please note that the inlet must be tight. A 
cable of EKK or EKLK type or similar must be 
used.

Minimum cross section area: 
230V

protected by 10A (up to 2 kW) - min. 1,5mm²
protected by 16A (2—3,5 kW) - min. 2,5 mm²

400V

protected by 10A (up to 4kW) - min. 1,5 mm²
protected by 1 6A (4—6 kW) - min. 2,5 mm²

Maintenance 

The heater is on the whole made of rustproof  
material and usually does not require any 
maintenance. Pollution can in the long run 
dull the reflectors somewhat. This however 
has very little affect on its function. If the 
heater is very dirty it can be cleaned with 
compressed air. If the reflector remains 

dirty฀it฀must฀be฀replaced฀by฀an฀authorized฀

repairman. The reflector must not be polished 
as this may damage the protective surface.
