Infrared Strip Heater. Make sure to locate the specific
information for the type of installation. Infrared strip heaters are
shipped with most components pre-assembled. Dual units are
supplied with a required 76 mm (3") or 152 mm (6") spacer pre-
assembled at the factory.
WARNING
FIRE HAzARD:
• Locate the unit the correct distance from combustible
walls and materials. If safe distances are not
maintained, discoloration or .combustion could occur.
Refer to specific installation and mounting information
in this manual for proper clearances.
• Make sure to follow the installation information listed
below for specific strip heaters. If safe distances are
not maintained, discoloration or combustion could
occur.
a. Do not install standard wattage strip heaters (GR,
GRA, GRN, GRAL Series) less than 254 mm (10")
above combustible surfaces.
b. Do not install high wattage strip heaters (GRH,
GRAH, GRNH, GRAHL Series) less than 343 mm
(13-1/2") above combustible surfaces.
c. Do not install dual strip heaters (GRA-XXD,
GRAH-XXD, GRAL-XXD, and GRAHL-XXD Series)
above combustible surfaces.
d. Install all single strip heaters with a minimum
distance of 76 mm (3") from a combustible wall or
adjacent surface.
Ensure safe and proper operation. Refer to the "Minimum
Clearance Requirements" listed in the Installation section
of this manual.
NOTICE
Do not add a decorative soffit to hide a pass-through
mounted strip heater. Excessive heat can cause unit
failure.
Damage to any countertop material caused by heat
generated from Hatco equipment is not covered under the
Hatco warranty. Contact the manufacturer of the
countertop material for application information.
NOTE: Contact the countertop manufacturer of the base
material for application information and surface
temperature limits before installing the unit.
1. Remove the unit from the shipping carton and remove all
packing materials.
NOTE: To prevent delay in obtaining warranty coverage,
complete online warranty registration. See the
IMPORTaNT OWNER INFORMaTION section for
details.
2. Remove tape and protective packaging from all surfaces of
the unit.
NOTE: If the unit is configured with optional equipment, see the
OPTIONS aND aCCESSORIES section in this manual.
CAUTION
3. Install/mount the unit in an appropriate location.
a. Verify recommended mounting heights and minimum
clearance requirements are met for the appropriate
model. Refer to "Recommended Mounting Heights" and
"Minimum Clearance Requirements" in this section.
b. For portable unit installation, refer to "Installing Portable
Units" in this section.
c. For chain suspension installation, refer to "Installing
Chain Suspended Units" in this section.
d. For permanent unit installation, refer to "Installing

Dual Mounting
When mounting units side-by-side, a space not less than
76 mm (3") must be maintained between units. Dual units
ordered from the factory are shipped with a pre-assembled
76 mm (3") or 152 mm (6") spacer.
NOTE: Dual units are available with aluminum housings only.
Installation of two or more separate units with less than 3"
(76 mm) between housings may result in premature failure
of component parts. Failure to provide proper spacing may
result in heat damage to electrical components and are not
covered by warranty.
Under Shelf Mounting
When mounting a unit under a shelf, use angle brackets to
assure proper spacing. Remote control enclosures are
recommended to keep switches out of the heat zone and
prevent premature failure.
Pass-Through
If pass-through area is 305–406 mm (12"–16") deep, the
standard wattage or high wattage single unit can be used. For
a 508–610 mm (20"–24") deep pass-through area, a dual unit
in either standard or high wattage is recommended. Installation
of multiple units must have a minimum spacing of 76 mm (3")
between heaters.
T-Legs or C-Legs
Do not mount units longer than 1524 mm (60") on T-legs or
C-legs.
Over Steam Table
When mounting over a steam table, a remote control enclosure
must be installed.
