Heat and Light Safety Guidance

Heaters should not be positioned lower than 1.8m from the ground. (Refer to manufacturers instructions). Heaters should be handled with care and must be turned off (isolated from source) and allowed to cool prior to handling or removing from parasol. Parasol canopies are not typically fire retardant and therefore must not come in contact with active heaters. All electrical connections will require RCD protection.
