Sizing the correct heater for your room
The ultra efficient Tatou radiant heater requires only 80 watts per square meter of room area, not 100 watts as with other panel heaters.
Motion & Light sensors settings
- Mode 1: When COMFORT is the priority, select comfort mode (sun symbol) and the desired temperature, say, 20°C. The electronic thermostat will regulate the room temperature every 40 seconds to 1/10°C.
- Mode 2: When COMFORT is required, PLUS energy savings, turn on the ‘Motion’ sensor. In this mode, if no presence is detected, the heater will turn down from the comfort setting by 2°C after 30 minutes. turn on the ‘Motion’ sensor. In this mode, if no presence is detected, the heater will turn down from the comfort setting by 2°C after 30 minutes.
- Mode 3: When ENERGY EFFICIENCY is the priority, select ECO mode with “Motion” sensor on. Select the background temperature for when the room is unoccupied say 12°C with the COMFORT temperature set at 20°C. When ‘presence’ is detected, the heater will warm the room from 1 2°C to 20°C. When a person leaves the room, the heater will return to 12°C over 90 minutes.
Running costs
Without motion sensors activated - once a room comes to temperature, the Tatou heater cycles at approximately 50% of the time, therefore assuming electricity costs 25 cents per KWH:
- 1000 watt costs 13 cents per hour – Room size 10-15m2
Draft sensor
If the draft sensor is turned on, and a cold draft is detected, the heater will turn to standby mode ( 7°C) and automatically return to heating when the temperature stabilizes. The sensors can be turned off with a simple press of a button. This may be the case when there is little movement such as reading a book or watching TV.
Tatou heaters are safe in bathrooms
The heaters are splash proof rated and double insulated making them suitable for use in bathrooms. They are to be installed in zone 2, that is the controls cannot be reached when in the bath or shower.
Child safe
The Tatou meets Australian and New Zealand standards for child safety. The low surface temperature will not burn. The control cover and the digital display can be locked.
