Product Description

Powerful, Portable, and Safe Heat!

If you have a drying job in a cold, freezing basement, you need a lot of heat to get things dry. The FireBird gives you portable BTUs wherever you need them!

 

The FireBird has two powerful settings: At the 50-amp setting, the FireBird produces 31,000 BTUs – that’s 360 CFM with an 80°F temperature rise.

 

You can place the FireBird in an area with below freezing temperatures and quickly produce 360 CFM of air over 100°F! Using the 30-amp setting the FireBird produces 18,000 BTUs – providing a 46°F temperature rise.

 

In addition to its heating power, the FireBird is designed with several key safety features. Internal temperature cutouts prevent the FireBird from overheating an area.

 

A startup delay prevents the potentially dangerous arcing/sparking that occurs with most other high-powered heating devices during plug-in.

 

The heating elements are shielded within a double-walled and screened enclosure, preventing external surfaces from becoming too hot to touch. An automatic pressure switch disables the heating elements if intake or exhaust ducts become blocked or if airflow is cut off for any reason. The FireBird is fully NEC compliant for continuous operation.

 

The Phoenix FireBird offers multiple heating, ducting, and electrical options for on-demand heating from inside or outside the drying space. The FireBird will operate freestanding or with 12-inch flex duct on the inlet and/or outlet to distribute the heat precisely where you need it. The FireBird’s included remote thermostat provides a means to control the heat from anywhere in the drying space.

 

A Phoenix Thermostat with a 25-ft connecting wire is also included with the unit.
