Infratech C Series Dual Element Infrared Heater, 48", 5,200W, 240V
Industrial Performance Meets Versatile 48-Inch Design
The Infratech CD5224SS Dual Element heater is a high-performance solution engineered for mid-sized outdoor environments that demand serious warmth without a massive footprint. Measuring 48 inches in length, this 5200-watt, 240-volt powerhouse (21.67 amps) utilizes a dual-element configuration to deliver more concentrated radiant heat than a single-element unit of the same size. Designed for peak performance at mounting heights of 8–12 feet, the CD5224SS creates a robust 9x9 foot comfort zone. By utilizing advanced infrared technology, it warms people and objects directly, providing deep, sun-like comfort that remains effective even in breezy or exposed conditions.
The Stainless Steel Advantage: Timeless Durability and Style
As a standout in Infratech’s Contemporary (CD) Series, this model features a classic Brushed Stainless Steel finish that offers a clean, professional aesthetic for modern architectural spaces. The housing is crafted from premium 304-grade stainless steel, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of year-round outdoor exposure while resisting rust and corrosion. The CD-Series is defined by its sleek, streamlined profile and inset mounting brackets that produce a "floating" effect, allowing the heater to provide immense warmth while maintaining a low-profile, integrated look. This polished metallic finish coordinates perfectly with high-end outdoor kitchens, stainless appliances, and contemporary hardware.
Professional Engineering and Precision Climate Control
The CD5224SS is built for ultimate installation flexibility, offering options for ceiling, wall, or flush-mount (with an optional kit) configurations. Its dual-element design allows for sophisticated heat management; when paired with a duplex switch, you can easily toggle between half-power and full-power settings to adjust to changing weather. For maximum precision, it is fully compatible with Infratech’s range of solid-state dimming systems and smart home integrations. Operating silently and with zero greenhouse emissions, it provides an eco-friendly, sustainable heating solution for luxury residential patios and premium commercial hospitality venues.
