Filter Maintenance
POLYTRON STATIC FILTER SYSTEM
The SunTwin
®
Heaters come equipped with a lifetime washable
POLYTRON static filter which is easy to clean. The manufacturer
recommends the filter be cleaned once a month or as needed. To do this,
follow these steps:
1) Pull up on the latches on each side of the filter to release the filter. Remove it
from the rear of the unit by tilting out and lifting up at at the same time.
2) Run warm tap water over the filter, the opposite direction of air flow,
until water runs clear. The filter might excrete some filtered residue, so
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 (don’t forget to rinse with clean water after soaking filter).
3) Shake the filter over a sink until excess water is removed and allow it to
drip dry completely before reinstalling. DO NOT force the filter to dry
using any alternative methods.
4) Reinstall the filter to the rear of the unit and secure side latches by raising
them up and locking them down in place.

Benefits
Safety
The SunTwin
®
Heaters have an excellent safety record.They produce safe,
clean, economical heat by using Infrared Quartz Heating Elements. The
unique SunTwin
®
Heaters use a process that virtually prevents wasteful
accumulation of heat on the ceiling. These heaters deliver ultimate comfort by
keeping the heat virtually even from “head-to-toe.”
Zone Heating Control
SunTwin
®
Heaters provide heat only where and when it is needed. These
heaters are less expensive per heated square foot and do not require costly
duct installation. The heaters use standard 110 volt current and do not
require special 220 volt wiring or a chimney vent.
Healthy Heat
SunTwin
®
Heaters produce heat that is as safe as the infrared rays of the
Earth’s sun, producing natural outdoor heat indoors.
The SunTwin
®
Heaters have low operating and maintenance costs. The fan
motor is the only moving part and is equipped with quality trouble-free
controls. There are no burners to rust, corrode, adjust, and no pilot light to
waste energy. Safe, clean, long-life infrared Heating Elements provide the
heat energy. They are easily and inexpensively replaced when needed.
Average element life is 5000+ hours or approximately 3 to 5 years. The
heaters are constructed of lifetime metals (copper and galvanized steel).
Ultimate Comfort
SunTwin
®
Heaters provide even heat distribution and warm floors. The
heaters thermostatically control, circulate, and recycle heated air at the floor
for maximum use and comfort. The floor to ceiling temperature differential
is minimal.
As the Quartz Infrared Elements operate, you will notice the heater’s ability
to heat does not depend on a high-speed flow of air. Instead, the gentle
flow of air promotes more effective heat mixing action and air stability at
the floor.
These heaters will not burn, dry out, or otherwise pollute the air with
impurities. This protects the humidity level and air quality important to
breathing comfort and personal health.
SunTwin
®
Heaters have no messy tanks to fill, wicks to clean, wood to
hassle with, ashes to carry, and leaves no soot film on walls or draperies.
The heaters are convenient to use, just plug into any unused grounded 110
volt 15 amp or higher circuit receptacle.
