Bromic Platinum Electric Controls and Accessories Guide

Choose the right control, mounting and accessory path for your Bromic Platinum Smart-Heat Electric heater before the electrician arrives.

RecessBuilt-in ceiling look
Quick answer

The best Bromic Platinum Electric setup depends on how the heater will be operated and mounted. Choose a manual wall switch for simple operation, an Affinity On/Off controller for remote-style zone control, and an Affinity Dimmer when adjustable heat output is important. Choose mounting accessories based on whether the heater will be wall mounted, ceiling mounted, recessed or suspended.

The heater body is only part of the project. Controls and accessories decide whether the final installation feels basic, polished or fully integrated into the outdoor space.

Bromic Platinum Electric Control Options

Control Path Best For Why It Matters
Manual wall switch Simple residential and straightforward commercial installs. Easy on/off operation without more advanced control features.
Affinity On/Off Controller Heater zones and remote-style control plans. Good when one or more heaters need cleaner operational control.
Affinity Dimmer Controller Spaces where heat intensity needs to be adjusted. Allows the customer to reduce or increase heat rather than only running full output.
Smart system integration Higher-end outdoor living and hospitality projects. Requires compatible Bromic control accessories and proper professional planning.

Bromic Platinum Electric Controls FAQ

Does the Bromic Platinum Electric heater include a controller?
Controllers are generally selected separately. The right control depends on whether the customer wants simple on/off operation, zone control or dimming.
What is the difference between On/Off and Dimmer control?
On/Off control turns the heater on or off. Dimmer control allows heat output adjustment when paired with the compatible control setup.
When do I need a ceiling recess kit?
Use a ceiling recess kit when the project calls for a built-in ceiling appearance and the ceiling structure, clearance and installation requirements can be met.
When is tube suspension useful?
Tube suspension is useful when a ceiling is too high and the heater needs to be lowered into a better heating position.
