Settle in for the evening. 2,500W for outdoor living.

This 2,500W single-element infrared heater combines a 1,010 mm body with 316 stainless steel construction, replaceable heating components and straightforward on/off operation.
- 2,500W output from one replaceable quartz element
- 240V supply with a rated current of 10.4A
- Approximate coverage: 8 × 8 ft (2.5 × 2.5 m) in a partially enclosed setting
- Wall, ceiling or flush mounting to suit your layout
- Limited five-year heater-body warranty; separate reflector and element terms apply
For the way you unwind outside
The I-25 offers 2,500W in the same body length as the I-20. It is worth considering when your heating plan calls for that additional output while retaining the same physical footprint. Position it around the table or seating zone you use, with coverage and exposure considered together.
There is no need to change what you love about your patio to plan its heating. Start with the furniture layout and available mounting positions, then match the heater to them. Corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel and a replaceable quartz element make ongoing care and service part of the ownership story.
Infrared heat warms people and surfaces in its path. Position the heater over or toward the area you actually use. Wind, mounting height and the openness of the space affect comfort and coverage.

Plan your installation
Share your seating or dining layout, area dimensions, mounting height, number of open sides and a photo. We can help you decide whether the I-25 or a neighbouring Ideal Series model fits the plan. Coverage is a planning estimate, not a guaranteed temperature or a substitute for the installation clearances.
Keep the heater's long axis horizontal. Flush mounting requires the purpose-designed recess kit and a firebox rated for at least one hour. Your electrician must follow the installation manual and local requirements for wiring, protection and clearances. Confirm mounting height with Kelray before installation.
The single element is operated with a suitable on/off switch. Discuss compatible controls and mounting accessories with Kelray and your electrician when planning your system.
