How to Clean the Air Cleaner
Fig. 12
Your heater comes with a PCO (Photo-Catalytic Oxidation) air cleaner that combines high-intensity UV light with superior activated carbon honeycomb filter technology. The lifetime washable air filter needs to be cleaned on a regular basis to ensure maximum performance of the air cleaner and of the heater itself. To clean the air cleaner filter, follow these simple steps: 1. Remove filter cover by unscrewing two screws holding rear filter cover in place. See Fig. 11. Carefully remove activated foam and honeycomb filter. See Fig.12. 2. Clean the filter by vacuuming it with an attachment or run warm water over it to remove dust. Run the water in the opposite direction of the air flow until the water runs clear. 3. During this process, the filter may excrete some filtered residue, be cautious not to drip on any stainable surfaces such as carpeting. You can also soak the filter in water mixed with a small amount of mild dish soap. Be sure to rinse out filters completely. 4. Clean the air cleaner filter every 30 days or when the filter appears dirty in order to maintain performance. 5. Shake the filter over a sink until excess water is removed and allow it to drip dry completely allowing up to 24 hours before reinstalling filter back into the heater. Do not force the filter to dry using any alternative methods. 6. Reinstall the filter in to the rear of the unit and screw the cover back in place.

WARNING
WARNING: The manufacturer shall not be liable in the event that the instructions in this manual are not observed and followed.
Cautions and Reminders
• 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 pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least three feet (0.9 meters) from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear. • Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended. • To disconnect the heater, turn power off, allow the heater to cool down and fan to stop. Turn master power switch to OFF position and remove plug from outlet. Always unplug the heater when not in use.
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 it will effect the unit's thermostat 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 heating environment. 5. This heater is designed to operate for maximum efficiency up to 80-82° F. (26.7-27.7° C.) range. Soft heat concept makes temperatures of 68° F. (20° C.) feel as though it were 72° F. (22° C.). This is due to the heat mixing with the humidity evenly for full body comfort. 6. When the heater is placed in an isolated area such as a basement or recreation area, the delivery registers and air return grills of the existing heating system should be closed during heater use in that area if possible. 7. 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 will not fall. This will allow for more efficient heating since concrete acts like a heat sink and will tend to draw the heat in its direction. 8. Try lowering your central heating system to a lower temperature and placing the heater in the area that you spend a majority of your time. Now set the heater to your comfort level. This will help reduce your overall energy consumption. 9. When heating larger areas, place the heater in a central location. If a ceiling fan is nearby, try using it at low speed at the same time to help distribute the heat evenly. 10. 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 Cleaner" section of this manual for instructions.

Question Why does the heater fan not work after I have turned on the heater power button on the control panel?
Solution The heater fan will not work until the heating element is hot enough to effectively heat the air as it passes by the element. The fan will turn on automatically.
Why does the heater fan continue to run after I have The heater fan will continue to run for a few minutes turned off the heater on the control panel? until the heating element and air filtration system has cooled down. The fan will shut off automatically. The heater's airflow seems to have diminished.
Make sure the rear air intake is not blocked and be sure the filter is clean. Follow the filter maintenance procedure to clean the filter.
The heater has shut off by itself.
The heater has gone into overheat protection mode. This happens when the internal temperature of the heater exceeds a pre-defined level. Simply turn the master power switch on the rear of the unit to off position. Unplug the heater and let it cool down for 20 minutes. Plug the heater back into the wall outlet and restart the heater.
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: room size, how well the space 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 exterior door, the outside temperature, etc.
Can I use the heater to heat multiple rooms at the same time?
Yes, keep in mind that heating will vary based on how open your floor plan is and the sizes of the rooms involved. In some cases running a ceiling fan will help in heating multiple rooms simultaneously by placing the unit in a central room.
My home is not insulated very well, will this heater help me?
Yes, but it will take a little longer to heat the room initially and the outside temperature will also have an impact on heating time. Once the room has reached the desired temperature, it will cycle on and off accordingly.
Can the heater be used in a bathroom?
No, it is NOT recommended due to the high level of moisture in a bathroom and similar locations.
Will I be able to use this heater in a basement?
Yes, but keep in mind that rooms with little insulation will not retain the heat as efficiently. Bare concrete floors which act as a heat sink with any type of heating will absorb some of the heat. Placing the heater a few feet above the floor will allow for more efficient heating.
Can I use more than one heater at a time?
Yes, but you should make sure that each heater is on its own circuit not servicing other electrical needs.
Can I use the heater on a job/construction site?
This heater is designed for household use only. The heater was not designed to be used in high dust construction environments. Using the heater for this purpose will void the warranty.

Question
Solution
Can I use the heater and another appliance at the same time?
Yes, as long as they are not on the same circuit. Zone heaters are considered an appliance. You should not run more than one large appliance on a single circuit breaker. Your freezer, refrigerator, microwave oven, washing machine, dryer and other such appliances should not share a circuit breaker.
Can I use an extension cord, surge protector or power strip with my heater?
It is NOT recommended. It is designed to be plugged directly in to a grounded 120V AC, 15 Amp or higher circuit receptacle.
I don't have a grounded outlet, can I use a cord adapter or remove the grounding plug?
NO. If you don't have a grounded outlet, contact a licensed electrician in your area for advice. Removing or altering any part of the heater is unsafe and also will void the warranty.
Can I move the heater around while it is operating?
It is NOT recommended to move any portable heater while it is operating. We recommend moving the heater only once the fan has completely turned off.
What is zone heating?
Zone heating is about focusing heat where people spend a majority of time, while keeping the rest of the home cooler.
