Slimline single-element infrared patio heater · 1600W, 208V, 29.5 in (749 mm) · Outdoor electric radiant heat · Infratech SL-1628
What this product is for
The Infratech SL-1628 is a slimline single-element electric infrared heater for outdoor comfort heating in smaller residential and commercial spaces. It is designed for installations where a compact 29.5 in (749 mm) heater length and 208V power are required.
Use for
Use for patios, balconies, covered decks, restaurant seating areas, and other outdoor zones where direct radiant heat is preferred over forced air. This model is commonly selected when the electrical service is 208V and the installation needs a narrow heater body.
Avoid for
Avoid using this heater as whole-space indoor heating or where a larger exposed area needs broader heat coverage than a single 1600W element can provide. It is also not the right choice when the project requires 240V equipment to match an existing heater schedule or control design.
Best for
Best for small outdoor seating areas and compact wall or ceiling layouts where a shorter infrared heater is easier to place. As a typical rule of thumb, 208V heaters deliver less output than equivalent 240V ratings, so layout, mounting height, wind exposure, and occupancy pattern should all be reviewed before selection.
Installed in
Typically installed in residential patios, condo terraces, outdoor kitchens, hospitality spaces, and light commercial exterior waiting or dining areas. Actual performance depends on mounting height, exposure, surrounding surfaces, and local electrical code.
Why this product exists
This product exists for projects that need focused radiant comfort heat from a compact electric heater rather than a larger dual-element unit. The slimline format helps when wall space is limited but reliable directional heat is still needed.
Compared with similar products
Compared with larger dual-element patio heaters, the SL-1628 uses a single heating element and a shorter housing for smaller zones. Compared with a 240V 1600W model, this 208V version is intended for 208V electrical systems and draws approximately 7.7A, which can matter for commercial and multi-unit projects.
