HEATER OPERATION

Fan Delay

On a call for heat from either the remote (fl oor level) 
thermostat or the unit mounted thermostat the elements 
will be energized.

When the thermostat is satisfi ed the elements will 
be deenergized.

The fan will continue to run until the residual heat is 
removed from the heater. Then the fan will stop.

Automatic Reset Thermal High Limit

 

OHV heaters have an automatic reset thermal high limit 
that will deenergize the heating elements if the interior 
temperatures of heater exceed its setting. The limit will 
automatically reset when the heater interior temperatures 
fall below its setting.

SERVICE

The heater motor is permanently lubricated.

Occasional cleaning of the inlet grille will prevent 
clogging. Use a vacuum with a brush attachment.
