Getting Started... Considerations for Heat Transfer Systems

1. Is your fire/heater generating excess heat?

If so, then a Heat Trans system can transfer this previously wasted heat to warm other rooms in the home.*

2. How many rooms do you wish to transfer the heat to?

Each room you wish to transfer warm air into must have an outlet. Standard Heat Trans Kits are available in Thru Wall, 1, 2 and 3 room kits. The 3 room kit can be extended using an extension kit to create a 4 outlet/room system. If larger systems are required Securimax are fully equipped to custom design systems to meet your requirements.

3. Where should you place your inlet grille?

We recommend placing the inlet grille on the opposite side of the room to the heat source. This allows the room to warm first before transferring excess heat and assists in the circulation of warm air within the room.

4. Where should you place the diffusers in bedrooms?

We recommend placing the diffusers away from doors and windows to ensure warm air is given the chance to circulate within the room

5. Can you connect the system yourself?

Securimax recommends that an electrician installs the system to ensure all electrical regulations and guidelines are met. The fan motor requires an earthed connection to the mains supply.

6. Can the heat trans kits be extended?

All kits have the ability to be extended where additional ducting lengths are required (Duct Order Code: DCT0633).
1 room kits can be extended to a maximum length of 12 metres (6 metres supplied in kit).
2 room kits can be extended to a maximum length of 21 metres (12 metres supplied in kit).
3 room kits can be extended to a maximum length of 24 metres (15 metres supplied in kit).
1 ROOM EXTENSION KIT comes with 3 metres of duct

* Note: Where gas appliances are used for the heat source, please refer to The Building Code (Section G4/ 2.2) and the gas heating installation company for advice.
