QUESTION

Why does the blower fan not work

after I have turned on the heater

power button?

ANSWER

The blower fan will not work until

the heating element is hot enough to

heat the air passing by. It will normally

turn on after about 10 seconds.

Why does the blower fan keep

running after I have turned off the

power button?

The blower fan will continue to run

until the proprietary heat chambers

have cooled down. After a few minutes

the fan will shut off automatically.

Why has the heater airflow seem to

have diminished?

Make sure the rear intake is not

blocked and that the filter is clean.

Follow the filter maintenance

procedure to clean the filter.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The heater has shut itself off and a red

LED light is illuminated on the front of

the heater. What does this mean?

The heater has gone into Auto

Recovery mode. This occurs when the

internal temperature of the heater

exceeds a pre-defined limit. Simply wait

a few minutes for the internal

components to cool down, and restart

the heater. Check to make sure no

other appliances are operating on the

circuit used to run the heater, as this

could also cause overheating. Be sure

to clean the air filter on the back of the

heater, as this could cause the unit to

overheat.

Once I initially plug the unit in and turn

it on, how long will it take to heat

my room?

Generally, it takes less than an hour.

Please remember that with any type

of heating process there are many

variables: size of the room, how well

the room is insulated, how many

doors/windows, how much bare

concrete (which acts as a heat sink

with any type of heating), the opening

and closing of an exterior door, and

the outside temperature etc.

WARNING TO USER

PERFORMANCE SUGGESTIONS

To assure maximum performance of the heater, please note the following

recommendations:

1. For best results, do not locate the heater in an area with a high rate of air filtration

and movement as the warm air will be exhausted.

2. Try placing the heater near a warmer inside wall and direct the output towards a

cooler outside wall. The cooler outside wall will tend to draw the generated heat

towards itself, which will allow for more efficient heating.

3. Placing the heater next to a cold air return will draw the heat away from area to be

heated. Try closing or covering the cold air return. This will allow for more efficient

heating. Experiment with the placement of the heater to see what works best for you.

4. To ensure maximum efficiency, a 40% (minimum) relative humidity should be

maintained in the heated environment.

5. When the heater is placed in an isolated area, i.e. basement or recreation area, the

delivery registers and air return grills of the existing system should be closed in that

area if possible.

6. Try placing the heater a few feet above the floor in rooms with large areas of bare

concrete. Make sure the heater is secure and won't fall. This will allow for more

efficient heating since concrete acts as a heat sink and will tend to draw the heat in

its direction.

7. Try lowering your central heating system to a lower temperature and placing the

heater in the area you spend the majority of your time. Now set the heater to your

comfort level. This will help reduce your overall energy consumption.

8. When heating larger areas, place the heater in a central location. If a ceiling fan is

nearby, try using it at the same time to help distribute the heat evenly.

9. If used in an extremely dirty or dusty area, the filter must be cleaned more frequently

as the filter can clog and cause the heater to stop working. Please refer to “How to

Clean the Air Filter” in this manual for cleaning instructions.

10. The heater grill is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch the hot

surface. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes,

and curtains at least three feet from the front of the heater and keep them away from

the sides and rear.

11. CAUTION: Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near

children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.

12. To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.

Always unplug heater when not in use.
