Opera� ng Instruc� ons
The opera� on of our heaters is convenient and economical. The heaters charge over night. Radia� on
from the casing provides a low level of background heat. The fan can be switched on as desired increa-
sing heat output.
Heater Charging Adjustments
Our heater charging can be controlled either automa� cally or manually.
Automa� c Control
The most common method of control for hea� ng systems consis� ng of three or more heaters is an au-
toma� c charge control. This control uses a weather (outdoor temperature) sensor to set the maximum
charge level and sends a signal to the heater. At the heater, residual heat le� over from the last charge
cycle is compared and the maximum charge se� ng is adjusted. When an automa� c charge control is
provided, there is normally no need for manual adjustment unless an individual heater is oversized for
the space. The manual adjustment does, however, provide a convenient method of reducing the heat
output in unoccupied rooms or rooms where hea� ng requirements vary, such as bedrooms, etc.
Manual Control
When only „Manual“ adjustment of the heater is needed, the exterior mounted control knob must be
installed. This is the knob that was found in the cardboard shipping support used between the heater
elements. The heater‘s thermal charge level can now be adjusted by a simple turn of the knob.
Suggested knob se� ngs for maximum hea� ng comfort and effi ciency are:
