Pew heaters with suspension brackets and guards
Selection
BLC pew heaters are designed to provide direct heating to pew occupants. The greater the percentage of the pew length that is heated, the more effective the system will be.
BLC pew heaters are generally mounted to the pew’s back board immediately below the seat. Where a backboard is not available, the heaters can be floor mounted using BLC-FB floor brackets or fixed to the underside of the pew seat using BLC-HB suspension brackets.
When required, BLC pew heaters can be protected by fitting the appropriate guard.
Use the following table to select the best combination BLC pew heaters for a pew. This will ensure maximum coverage of the space between seat supports.
| Model | Space between Seat Supports |
| BLC-300B | 650mm to 750mm |
| BLC-500B | 751mm to 1000mm |
| BLC-750B | 1001mm to 1500mm |
Where the space between seat supports exceeds 1500mm, a multiple of heaters should be used.
