Attention Attention: Turn off heating when leaving the space! Attention
Use the heaters only on stage 1 or 2. Make sure to switch both heaters to 0 when you're the last one leaving the space!


At the Lab we have two heater/radiators.
In the picture you can see them. We call the one at the community area (above the "MAKE" logo) "Front Heater" and the one at the electronics corner "Back Heater".

To switch them on/off each heater has its own control panel. The one from the "Front Heater" is directly beneath it between the storage boxes, see here:

The control panel of the "Back Heater" is in the Laser/3D printer lounge:

The control switch has 3 stages. We noticed that on stage 3 the fan speed is to high for the heat of the radiator, which results in a cold air stream.
So set the switch only to stage 1 or 2. The "Back Heater" even provides hot air on stage 2 whereas the "Front Heater" sometimes blows cold air on stage 2.
Make sure to switch both switches to 0 when you're the last one leaving the space!
