KIT CONTENTS
LOCATION GUIDELINES
The Halo Heat & System uses wireless Zigbee communication from the Smart Interface to the Smart Wiring Centre and Halo PRT up to a maximum distance of 30 meters. Occasionally house constructions and materials can reduce this communication range and it is advisable, where possible, to try and avoid directing communications through metal frames or solid concrete walls. If the distance between the Halo PRT and Smart Interface or the Smart Wiring Centre and Smart Interface is greater than 30 meters or the install location is challenging, consider using the Zigbee Booster (UIN 221132, further details available at idealheating.com)
- Mounted 1.2-1.5m above the floor
- Not above a radiator/heat source
- Not in direct sunlight
- Away from any draftsNot fitted behind curtains
