How the Flat Bar Heater Works

Electrical resistance generates heat within the element. Its broad, flat shape transfers heat across the warming area in the appliance. Correct temperature control also depends on the condition and operation of the appliance's other components; a heating fault should be diagnosed before replacing parts.

Installation and Safety

Installation must be carried out by a qualified appliance technician or electrician. Isolate the appliance from the mains supply before inspection or repair. Follow the appliance manufacturer's instructions and applicable electrical safety requirements. Incorrect installation can cause electric shock, fire or appliance damage and may affect the warranty.
