First Check These Suggestions For Best Performance

• Maintain a Minimum of 30% Relative Humidity: Using a hygrometer to measure the relative humidity will increase the performance of the Comfort Furnace and Heat-Heat Infrared Furnace. It is ideal to have 35% to 40% relative humidity in the area.
• Placement: Placing the heter with the back facing an inner wall and the front facing an outer wall will help the machine maintain and read the temperature in the area more accurately.
• Cleaning Filter: Checking and cleaning the filter once a month will help the maximum amount of airflow through the machine which in turn will spread out across the area evenly.
• Concrete Floors and Walls: Concrete naturally absorbs any heat that is in the room. Place the heater a few feet above a bare concrette floor to resolve this problem.
• Heater Warm Up Phase: The infrared heater you have purchased may have been in the cold for several days. Please allow the heater to warm up in your home before turning the unit on.
• Extended Warranty: If you are unable to purchase a warranty at a factory direct sale, we invite you to contact us directly at 1-888-778-8453 with the first 30 days of your purchase. This extends your warranty from three-year coverage on everything to a five-year coverage on everything. It also extends your three-year warranty on the elements to lifetime coverage on the elements.
