5. Setup & Installation

The BEYOND HEAT Electric Garage Heater is designed for ceiling mounting. Ensure the mounting surface is sturdy and can support the weight of the heater.

2. Position the mounting bracket against the chosen surface. Mark the drill points for the screws.
3. Drill pilot holes if necessary and securely fasten the mounting bracket using appropriate screws and anchors for your surface type.

5.2 Heater Attachment

2. Align the heater's side arms with the mounting bracket. Push the heater up, compressing the spring-loaded arms, and snap it into place on the bracket.
3. Re-insert the bolts and nuts on each side and tighten them to secure the heater to the bracket.
4. Adjust the angle of the heater by loosening the side bolts, tilting the heater to the desired 90° angle, and then re-tightening the bolts.
