Description and Operation

The Thermologika Design Plus is a wall-mounted
auxiliary heater using an infrared lamp with low light
emission. It is ideal for domestic and commercial use,
particularly where heat is required virtually instantly,
and in rooms open towards the outside.
Thermologika Design functions on the principle of
irradiation (just like the sun's own rays). The
appliance's infrared rays directly heat the objects they
reach.
Since Thermologika contains no moving parts, it is
exceptionally silent during operation.
The heater is turned on and off by means of a special
pull-cord type switch.
Lamps can be turned on using remote switches.
