How It Works
The SGH Infrared Heater works with your in-home furnace to provide supplement heat. In short, room
temperature air circulates from the rear of the SGH Infrared Heater, passes through a highly efficient filter,
enters a chamber that houses the Infrared Quartz Bulbs, and exits as heated air from the Diathermanous
Copper Plate constructed on the front of the unit. The SGH Infrared Heater ideally heats a room of up to
750 square feet, but can be used to heat up a single room size up to 1000 square feet, depending on the
ambient temperature. And it does all this with a noise level below 46db. The SGH Infrared Heater is not
for use as the primary/sole heating system.
Components and Functions
A. The SGH Infrared Heater is constructed with Infrared Quartz Bulbs. Each Infrared Quartz Bulb is
rated at 375W. These bulbs produce infrared rays that warm the air which passes through the
inner chamber. The Infrared Quartz Bulbs are constructed with a stainless steel thermal
conducting housing. The incorporated twisted style increases the efficiency of the unit.
B. An AC Cross Flow Fan pushes air over these Infrared Quartz Bulbs. Cross Flow Fans create a
wide flow of air using a cylindrical-shaped impeller. Air is drawn inside the SGH Infrared Heater,
flows along the circumference of the chamber and over the Infrared Quartz Bulbs, and is blown
out laterally creating a uniform flow of warm air.
C. The SGH Infrared Heater has a Delay Start Function which controls the AC Cross Flow Fan. The
purpose of the Delay Start Function is to allow the Infrared Quartz Bulbs to heat up before the fan
begins to circulate the air flow. In addition, the AC Cross Flow Fan will continue to circulate the
airflow after the power is turned off to circulate the warm air from the SGH Infrared Heater cooling
the unit down.
D. The air flow exits through the front of the SGH Infrared Heater. It travels from the Diathermanous
Copper Plate. The Diathermanous Copper Plate is constructed from red copper making it
advantageous for efficient thermal conductivity. It is a resourceful material in reflecting the
infrared rays.
E. The LED Digital Display is a convenient, stylish, and modern way to display the set temperature
and time. This attractive addition compliments the SGH Infrared Heater, in that, it simplifies and
makes controlling the unit easy. Operating the heater is logical and can be done on the unit itself
or by remote.
