Infratech WD5224BL 48" Dual Element 5,200 Watt 240V 21.67 Amps Infrared Heater - Black

Maximum Dual-Element Intensity in a 48-Inch Black Profile (5200W / 240V)

The Infratech WD5224BL represents the peak of heating performance in the WD-Series, delivering a high-capacity 5200 watts (21.67 amps) from a 48-inch chassis. This unit is engineered for large-scale residential patios and demanding commercial applications where maximum heat coverage is required. Optimized for mounting heights of 8–12 feet, it projects an expansive 10x10 foot comfort zone. Its medium-wave quartz technology ensures that radiant heat is absorbed directly by people and surfaces, providing a deep, consistent warmth that remains effective even in breezy or fully exposed outdoor environments.

The Black Collection: A Bold Statement for High-Capacity Heating

This model features a premium Black powder-coated finish over a rugged 304 stainless steel housing. This bold, modern aesthetic is specifically designed to blend into dark-painted rafters, charcoal ceilings, or contemporary ironwork where a standard metallic or white finish would be too distracting. The "WD" dual-element configuration packs significant power into a shorter overall footprint compared to single-element models of similar wattage, offering a more versatile and visually balanced installation for high-performance heating.

High-Output Engineering and Advanced Control Compatibility

The WD5224BL is designed for maximum installation versatility, supporting wall, ceiling, or flush-mount configurations (flush-mount requires an optional kit). Due to its high 5200-watt output, this unit is uniquely compatible with Infratech’s Duplex Stack Switches, allowing you to activate one element for "half-power" or both elements for full intensity. For the most sophisticated climate management, it can be integrated with solid-state control packages for infinite variable adjustment. Operating silently and with zero emissions, it provides a powerful, eco-friendly heating solution for the most expansive outdoor living spaces.
