Classic series legs for framed heaters:
​The distance to other objects from the point of installation we recomment to be 20 inches (50 cm) away from the front, 8 inches (20cm) to the sides and 8 inches (20 cm) upward and downward. This is the area that should be cleared for just safety precautions. Technically as long as nothing flmmable is in proximity and nothing is touching the panel itself there would not be a problem.
One can get as close as they want to the panel as long as they do not make direct contact with the heater while its on!
It is normal for the panel to be hot to the touch when on, the infrared technology is created by the heating of the panel. We recommend to never touch the panel when it is on.
Do note Wexstar's heating technology is completely safe. These panels have safety sensors that allow the panel to cool off if it somehow were to overheat. They are also fully tested and approved in the North American market (including certification for TUV, UL, CSA).
You can stand as close to the heater as you wish, as long as you do not make direct contact with the heating elements.
