10 Step Guide to Programming A Hot Yoga Studio

How to measure the heat up time on an infrared heating system....

......you can't.

Well, to be precise, you can't be exact.... 

Each building is different - insulation, windows, flat ceiling vs pitched, hard floors, external walls, the list goes on........

10 Step Guide to Programming Your Hot Yoga Studio:

FRICO TFP12 Remote Controller

1. Set the comfort (heating) mode to the desired temperature (e.g. 35⁰C)
2. Set the set back (night setting) mode to around 10-15⁰C
3. Program the class schedule into the controller
4. Allow for 1 hour of heat up time prior to the class starting.  E.g. for a 7am class, set the program to begin at 6am.
5. If the air temperature has reached 35⁰C by 7am, no need to read the rest of this article.
6. If, however, you are not satisfied that it has reached the desired temperature, add an extra hour of heat up time - i.e. start the heating at 5am.
7. Once you have established the best heat up time save the settings.
8. There is no greater cost to add another hour of heat up time (roughly 50p per hour on a 100m² room)
9. Winter - add an extra hour to the heat up time.
10. Summer - reduce by an hour

Finally, keep playing with the controls until you are happy with the heat up time.  It takes time and patience to diligently test out the above, however, it will be worth it when you see the reduced heating bill and the satisfied clients!

The above is recommended only when you want to make sure the air temperature has reached the desired set point - remember, infrared heating can be felt immediately when standing under the heater, so don't obsess too much about air temperature.
