Features
- Radiant heater appropriate for spot heating of small rooms and work areas
- Quartz infrared tube helps provide even heat distribution from ceiling to floor
- Stainless steel housing helps resist corrosion and is rated for indoor or outdoor use by Edison Testing Laboratories (ETL, a division of Intertek Group PLC)
- Includes two 2' length chains and four S-hooks for suspension from the ceiling and surface mounting bracket
- Single-phase, 120V wiring is compatible with some standard circuits

- Single-phase, 120V wiring is compatible with some standard circuits
The TPI Corporation OCH46-120V quartz electric infrared heater operates at 1.5kW, has a frosted quartz infrared tube that helps provide even distribution of radiant heat from ceiling to floor, and a stainless steel housing that helps resist corrosion and is rated for suspended, exposed outdoor use or indoor spot heating by Edison Testing Laboratories (ETL, a division of Intertek Group PLC). The reflector is made of gold anodized aluminum that helps provide efficient transfer of radiant energy into the room or workspace in a 60-degree symmetrical heat pattern.The unit can be suspended from the ceiling using the included two 2’ length chains and four S-hooks, or surface mounted using the included mounting bracket with 45-degree tilt adjustment. The unit has an electrical enclosure with lead wires for direct field connection, and includes a cordset with plug. The single-phase, 120V wiring is compatible with some standard circuits. The unit weighs 10 lb. and can be used with temperature controls (sold separately).
Electric heaters generate warmth through a central heating element that is housed in a reflective enclosure that concentrates the energy produced. An element made of a combination of metals produces heat or infrared energy by the electrical resistance created when an electric current passes through it. Fan-forced heaters pass air over the heating element to expel heat from the enclosure for greater throw and circulation. Radiant heaters do not use a fan, but warm nearby objects through energy transfer. A heater’s voltage and wiring should be matched to the electrical circuit where it is to be used. Heaters are used in a range of commercial applications that include shop floors, construction sites, and industrial buildings. All local electrical codes should be followed when installing permanent mounted electric heating equipment.
TPI Corporation manufactures industrial and commercial electrical heaters, process heat ovens, ventilation products and fans, lighting equipment, and thermostatic controls. The company, founded in 1950, is headquartered in Johnson City, TN.

Don't mistake this 5000BTU unit for those commercial heaters mounted waaay up high throwing heat like the sun.. 1500W is 1500W. But its safer than my propane radiant heater.I hung this up over a work bench in my unheated garage. It was 40F and I was expecting a nice warm glow.. the glow was there but the heat was barely noticeable. Initially 7 feet from the floor and angled towards me, I wound up lowering it to 6 feet. My hands got cold so I held them inches away from the element to warm them up.. it took a few moments.Also, this unit does not include any cord or plug as described. You'll have to mount a box on the side and provide your own wiring.. I used 12 gauge to be cautious but now I see 14 gauge would have been plenty.EDIT: After having this for a few months I like it better.. but in colder weather use it along with my propane heater. for a freezing cold garage its not adequate even when standing right underneath. But in moderate temps (45F+) it takes the bite off the cold, at least on my head and shoulders.

Not rated for indoor residential use! It is clearly marked as such once you get it, but this information needs to be shown in the listing. Also as others pointed out, it needs to be hardwired to a wall switch, or you could attached a plug, but I think a switch installed by an electrician is a good idea, perhaps with a timer. This draws significant current, and has clearance requirements because of how hot it gets so a professional installation is required unless you are confident with electricity and heat.As a radiant heater, it is nice. It casts warmth over a wide angle and fairly long length. People need to understand these type of heaters need to get red hot to work, so they will be bright, and that they only warm things in their line of sight, like the sun or a fire. If someone walks in between you and a camp fire, you immediately lose the warmth of the fire. Likewise, these only slightly raise the air temperature in a room, but they greatly warm whatever they shine one.

nice warm heat...but you do need to hire an electrician to install the power cord (not included) and make sure you get the correct gauge wire.
