Relying on an infrared heating lamp, the Fire Sense 02117 Mojave Sun Infrared Heater is ideal for warming both indoor and outdoor areas. Heat from infrared lamps, like that from sunlight, warms objects directly instead of indirectly by first warming the air around them. Also like heat from the sun, it is unaffected by wind movements.
Heat emitted by the Mojave Sun heater is capable of comfortably heating people up to 9 feet away. Standing atop a telescopic pole, the infrared lamp can be raised up to 87 inches to cover a wider ground area. The pole and the casing of the lamp are made of lightweight extruded aluminum for durability. And since the heater is designed for outdoor use, they are also weatherproof.
The heat source is a 1,500-watt infrared lamp that operates at 90% heating efficiency. It is plugged into regular household outlets of 110 volts. Although its wattage appears high, it is actually cheaper to operate than a typical propane-fueled heater. With a 5,000-hour lamp life, your savings is further augmented.
The lamp does not produce ultraviolet or UV rays that are potentially harmful, and neither does it emit toxic residuals. Indeed, you can stay under its light for extended periods without suffering any deleterious effects.
Since the heater does not rely on fans to move heat, it runs quietly and will not disturb your reverie as you watch snowflakes falling on your patio, or your sleep as you snuggle under the covers with your significant other.
The heater stands on a solid circular base with a diameter of 18 inches. This provides stability and balance that cannot be thwarted easily. For easy transport, however, it is fitted with wheel casters.
The head unit or lamp casing has dimensions of approximately 20" W x 7" D x 7" H. It weighs 8 pounds on its own, while the combined weight of the head, frame, and base adds up to 53 pounds.
