Velit Sol Installation and App Guide
Easier than you imagine
Most of the Far Infrared Heaters by Royal Infrared Heating® can be mounted without help of a professional electrician. Our products are developed and designed primarily for the efficient heating and ease of implementation.
Only four holes are needed to be drilled in a wall to perform an installation. Installation kit comes with each unit. Below you can see the step-by-step Installation Guide.
For any hard-wired installation we recommend to use an assistance of any local electrician. The hardwired installation is easy as to hardwire a TV or any electrical appliance. No extra line needed in most of the cases. Simply hardwire the heater to the closest electrical outlet/box.
Keep in mind that our company does not provide installation, however, our managers can assist you finding an electrician and will also provide you with a helpful installation advice if requested.

Wall & Ceiling mounting
This Installation Guide is for Wall (higher than 2m above the floor, horizontally) and Ceiling Mounting! Please do NOT mount this model lower than 2m above the ceiling as the heater surface gets up to 135°C.
Mounting brackets
The mounting system is specially developed and designed for the heater Velit Sol. It allows you to choose the regulate the position and angle of the device for the most efficient heating experience. One of the adjusting brackets should be pre-installed to a wall or ceiling and then to be connected with the heater.
Integrated thermostat
This Installation Guide also includes details on how to setup the thermostat and pair it with the easy-yo0use app for your smartphone/tablet.
Heater position recommendation
The heater should be mounted higher than 2m. But keep in mind that higher you mount it, more time the heater will take to heat the room/area.
In terms of positioning of the heater in the heated room/area, the best recommendation is to mount it as close as possible to the area where you or your guests spend most of the time.
Indeed, overtime the infrared waves will reach all surfaces providing an even temperature, but you will still feel more heat close to the heater.
Thus, you may want to mount the heater in the middle of the heated room/area to help spreading the heat as even as possible. The same recommendation both for the wall and ceiling installation.
However, if you have a limited number of wall/ceiling parts to mount the heater, always feel free to mount the heater to any available part. It will not simnifically change the efficiency of the IR heating.
Power source
Plug it in
If you want simply plug the heater in a socket, please make sure the socket is located nearby or you use a proper quality socket-extension. By default the electrical cord length is 1.9m. You can cut it and extend if needed.
Or hardwire it
If you want to hard-wire the heater, you can use any closest electrical outlet/box or even any socket or light switcher to get to the electrical line. You can easily cut the electrical cord and extent it as much as needed.

5. Hang the heater
