Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Hark Heat & Beat suitable for outdoor use in Australia?
Yes. The Heat & Beat carries an IP65 weatherproof rating, meaning it's protected against dust and water jets — making it well suited to Australian outdoor environments including patios, pergolas, alfresco dining areas, and garden setups. It can also be used indoors in sheds, garages, and entertaining spaces.
How much area does the heater cover?
The Heat & Beat is rated to heat areas of 15–20 square metres, making it ideal for a standard alfresco deck, outdoor dining area, or garden entertaining space. For larger areas, multiple units can be installed side by side.
Can I use the Bluetooth speaker independently of the heater?
Yes. The dual Bluetooth speakers and the infrared heater operate independently, so you can stream music without turning the heat on — great for warmer evenings when you still want the ambience and sound. Both functions are controllable via the Bluetooth app or included remote.
How does infrared heating differ from a fan heater or gas heater?
Infrared heaters like the Heat & Beat warm people and objects directly — similar to the warmth of the sun — rather than heating the air around them. This makes them more efficient outdoors because wind doesn't carry the warmth away. Unlike gas heaters, there are no fuel canisters to replace, no fumes, and no open flame — just plug in and enjoy instant heat.
What does "Ultra Low Glare+" mean and why does it matter?
Traditional infrared heaters use bright gold lamps that emit an uncomfortable orange glow. The Heat & Beat's Ultra Low Glare+ lamp produces 94% less glare — so it provides the same warmth without harsh light ruining your ambience. The lamp also has a long lifespan of 5,000–7,000 hours, so you won't need to replace it often.
How is the heater mounted and installed?
The Heat & Beat comes with a 1.8m power cable, an L-shaped wall bracket, and all necessary fixings — everything you need for a wall mount is included in the box. It can also be used on a compatible floor stand (sold separately). No electrician is required — it runs off a standard 220–240V Australian power outlet.
Is it safe to use around children and pets?
Yes. The Heat & Beat includes a built-in safety guard that protects the heating element from accidental contact. The ultra-low glare lamp also means there's no intense visible light that could startle children or animals. As with all heaters, we recommend keeping the immediate area around the unit clear.
What are the running costs compared to a gas patio heater?
At 2400W, the Heat & Beat uses 2.4 kWh of electricity per hour. Based on average Australian electricity rates of around 30–35 cents per kWh, that's roughly 72–84 cents per hour to run — comparable to or cheaper than bottled gas heaters, with no gas bottle purchases or replacements ever needed.
What devices does the Bluetooth app work with?
The Heat & Beat connects via standard Bluetooth to both iOS (iPhone/iPad) and Android devices. You can control heat settings and speaker volume from your phone, or use the included remote if you'd prefer a dedicated controller without reaching for your phone.
Does Hark offer warranty and support in Australia?
Yes. Hark is an Australian brand backed by a local support team based in Dandenong South, Victoria. The Heat & Beat is covered by a manufacturer's warranty, and support is available directly through harkbbq.com. You can also pick up in person from our Vic warehouse if you're local.
