Dimensions Installation

ENERJOY PEOPLEHEATERS® Specifications requirements:

Nominal sizes: 1’ increments up to 2’ in width and 8’ in length, 1" thick.

Models: RP-(rear wired); RPD- (surface wired).

Voltages: -1 (277v), -2 (240v), -3 (208v), -4 (120v).

Nominal Wattage: 50 Watts per square foot.

Radiant Output: 95% of input power.

Extension Ring  for Installation: 2 1/8"x 4"x 1 ½" (such as Thepitt #592)

Bid Specifications:

The ENERJOY® radiant heating panel shall be constructed of insulated Solid State Heating element. The element shall be backed with one-inch thick, high density, odorless fiberglass board, faced with a white fine textured aluminum face and framed in aluminum. Panels shall reach the full surface temperature in five minutes. Radiant output shall be 95% of input energy. Panels shall be listed under UL Standard 2021 – Fixed and Location-Dedicated Electric Room Heaters. Panel shall meet or exceed FHA/HUD Minimum Property Standards.

Design Guidelines

1-     Determine panel size by selecting a balanced combination of
          Enerjoy PEOPLEHEATERS to cover 10% of the ceiling surface.

2-  Design symmetrical Heatmodule placement in the same way you locate lights to illuminate a room, recognizing areas of high heat loss and special comfort areas.

3- Take full advantage of the broad dispersion of radiant energy emanating at up to an 80° angle from the Heatmodule surface. It is all right to over size by using identical heat modules to attain symmetry even though the sizing chart calls for unequal or smaller units. ( the sizing increase or decrease determines cycle frequency - how quick the thermostat set point is satisfied.)

Rule-of-Thumb for calculating the
quantity and size of the panels for your application
suggested for an 8' ceiling:           

• Select a geometrically pleasing design..

• Allow a 2’ to 4’ setoff from exterior walls.

• Figure approximately two times the setoff distance between heat modules
   

Enerjoy Peopleheater Panel Selection

Wiring Note:  Existing 20 amp 120V lighting circuits may serve Enerjoy 1 Heatmodules

Insulation note:  Insulate floor above basement or crawl space.

 Additional Guidelines:

 Supplemental Heating:  basements and super-insulated houses – Use (1) 24RP for each 100 square feet of space – approx. 3-4 W/SF

 Cathedral ceilings or 14’ ceilings: 

      For 12’ peak (avg. 10’), increase heat panel area by 25% (Example, use 28 RP instead of 26 RP)
       For 16’ peak (avg. 12’), increase heat panel area by 50%  

Split-Level: add one watt per square foot

Fireplaces, sliders or skylights:  add one watt per square foot.

Replace Old, Inaccurate Bimetal Thermostats

Always install new, accurate ENERJOY TSSHC-2 radiant sensing thermostats with ENERJOY PEOPLEHEATERS. Other electric heat thermostats generally are calibrated based upon maximum load. The temperature cycle range is uncomfortable and wastes energy because occupants choose a higher set point in their quest for comfort.

ENERJOY thermostats have a 1° F temperature differential, are sealed against corrosion, totally silent, and are available in both light {TSSHC-2L (<8 amp)} and heavy {TSSHC-2H(>8 amp)} load calibration. Light-sensing, programmable, automatic setback and tamperproof thermostats are available.

WIRING NOTE:

The low amperage requirements for ENERJOY PEOPLEHEATERS can usually be provided by existing 120 or 240 Volt circuits. The 30%-70% wattage reduction over convection electric heating eliminates the need for dedicated wiring. Wherever a single ENERJOY heatmodule is specified, existing 120-Volt capacity circuit is usually adequate for the additional load.

Installation

                                                                            INSTALLATION of the multi-sized panels is as easy as installing an electric light fixture
               * Mounted on the surface or -
            * Flush Mounted or -
            * In a suspended ceiling grid or -
            * Freely suspended.
                                                                  Painting, over spraying with water base paint or acoustical material, or framing creates the desired aesthetic effect.

                                 Penetrable Surface Mounting (sheetrock) (Fig. 1)-(check for bag of hole plugs)

1. Insure adequate clearance hole in center for module connection box.
2. Install connection box to back of module using the pre-positioned screws.
3. Connect the power supply conductors to the module leads in the connection box.
4. Position on ceiling, holding module in place.
5. Punch or drill (¼" max.) through the module frame holes into the ceiling to provide a hole for the screw/anchor assembly, or mark holes for drill.

Insert installer provided screw/anchor assembly into the ceiling, and tighten into place.
 Insert plastic caps to close frame screw holes.

T-Bar Mounting (Fig. 2)

1. Install connection box to back of module using the two pre-positioned screws.
2. Lay the module carefully onto the T-Bar grid and secure with installer provided hold-down clips if necessary.
3. Connect the power supply conductors to the module leads in the module connection box.

This is a description of a major benefit of using the product.

Impenetrable Surface Mounting - RPD model (Concrete) (Fig. 3)

• Assemble Wiremold junction box and rear plate and attach to the side of the panel frame with the provided hardware.
• Position panel and junction box assembly onto ceiling to mark the location of the panel and junction box mounting holes.
• Drill holes (3-1/16" dia., 1-1/4" deep) at each mark and insert anchors into drilled holes.
• Hold the panel and junction box assembly to the ceiling; insert screw completely through large frame hole and screw securely through small frame hole into anchor.
• Bring Wiremold raceway through appropriate knockout of panel junction box.
• Connect the power supply conductors to the panel leads: Attach the grounding conductor to the provided ground clip.
