2.6 UFO outdoor use
UFO-E heaters feature IP34 certificate. This IP certificate (Ingress Protection) refers that they
provide protection against large objects with diameter over 2.5mm and against water spilling from
any direction. Electrical components of UFO-E heaters manufactured in accordance
with IP34 protection class are insulated and, due to such feature, they can safely be
used in exterior environment.
UFO products without IP logo are not designed for outdoor use. Thus they should be
installed away from rain or snow.
