please contact Schaefer Ventilation.

Disconnect the power before starting any
maintenance procedure including cleaning.

To ensure optimum heat effectiveness, it is
recommended that after the heater has been
used for approximately 80-100 hours, that the
front glass is opened and both the front glass
and reflector are wiped with a lint-free cloth
before resealing.
•
If at any time, a white deposit is seen on the
inside of the glass or on the reflector, either or
both should be cleaned with a dust-free cloth.
•
The heater is supplied with toughened safety
glass. In the unlikely event that this should
become cracked, contact the manufacturer only
for an immediate replacement.
