Infrared Patio Heater · 1600W 120V · Single Element Black Slimline · Infratech SL-1612-BK
What this product is for
This electric infrared radiant heater is used for targeted comfort heat in residential and light commercial spaces such as patios, balconies, screened rooms, and covered outdoor seating areas. The slimline single-element design suits applications where wall or ceiling space is limited and a clean black finish is preferred.
Use for
Use for spot heating people and occupied zones rather than trying to heat the surrounding air. Common installations include covered patios, pergolas, enclosed porches, restaurant seating areas, and indoor spaces where silent radiant heat is preferred.
Avoid for
Avoid using this heater as whole-room space heating for large open areas or exposed locations with significant wind. It is also not the right choice where a higher-voltage or higher-wattage heater is needed for larger coverage zones.
Best for
Best for electricians and contractors specifying a compact 120V infrared heater for smaller zones, retrofit projects, or locations where a 120V circuit is already available. A 120V, 1600W load draws approximately 13.3A, so branch-circuit planning should follow applicable code and continuous-load requirements.
Installed in
Typically installed on wall or ceiling surfaces in covered outdoor living areas, hospitality spaces, workshops, and enclosed residential rooms. The heater body is approximately 29.5 in long (750 mm), 4.75 in wide (121 mm), and 3 in high (76 mm), which helps when laying out tight mounting locations.
Why this product exists
This model exists for projects that need focused radiant heat from a compact single-element heater instead of a larger dual-element unit. Infrared heaters warm people and surfaces directly, which is commonly preferred for patios and semi-exposed spaces where forced-air heat is less effective.
Compared with similar products
Compared with larger 240V patio heaters, this 120V 1600W model is better suited to smaller heating zones and simpler electrical service access. Compared with gas patio heaters, electric infrared units provide silent operation with no open flame at the point of use. As a rule of thumb, heater selection should be based on occupancy area, mounting height, exposure, and layout rather than wattage alone. Actual performance depends on installation conditions, insulation, layout, and local electrical code.
