Q. The temperature on my heater does not match the display on my wall or external thermostat,
why?
A. This is completely normal. The display on your heater may vary from another thermostat (like the
one on your wall or an external thermostat). This is because the sensor on the heater reads the
temperature directly around the heater. With the heater near the cold floor (and heat rising), any
readings on elevated or external thermostats will differ to the readings on the heater. It is best to set
the unit on high and dial up to a temperature that is comfortable. Then, leave it at that temperature,
regardless of the mismatch. The heater will cycle off when the set temperature is met or slightly
exceeded.
Q. Can I use more than one heater at a time? Can I use the heater with another appliance at the
same time?
A. Yes, but make sure they are not plugged into the same circuit. Each heater requires its own
minimum 15-amp circuit with no other items plugged into that circuit or outlet. This is because heaters
are considered appliances and draw out high amperage. If you are unsure your circuit meets these
requirements, verify with a certified electrician.
WARNING: Risk of fire, damage to property or injury could result if requirements are not met.
Q. Why does my heater's fan keep running after the temperature is reached or the power is
turned off?
A. This is normal. The fan will continue to run, even after the heater automatically cycles down. It
continues to run so every bit of heat is blown out of the heat chamber, while allowing the unit to
continue filtering your air. Once the internal components cool completely, the fan should shut off on its
own. In this case, allow a few minutes after the heat cycles off (with power on). The fan shuts off faster
when power is turned off.
Q. The display shows the ambient temperature to be in the 20s – I know it is warmer than that,
so why is this happening?
A. The display is set to read temperature as Fahrenheit. If your heater is heating but shows it is in the
20's, the setting is most likely in Celsius rather than Fahrenheit.
Q. The power cord gets warm. The cord is showing signs of heat or melting at the outlet, is this
normal?
A. A warm power cord is normal. These power cords are rated safe for up to 105℃/221℉ by the UL,
CSA, or ETL. However, if you detect heat, smoke or signs of melting at the contact point of the wall
outlet, it may be due to loose or worn wall contacts (or arcing). Please top using the heater
immediately, contact warranty support for a replacement cord, and have certified electrician replace
the wall outlet as soon as possible.
