FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ’S)
My heater emits a “strange” odor when I first open the box/when I turn the heater on for the first
time. Why is this happening?
This is normal
. This heater is treated with a special heat safe/resistant coating. This odor will
sometimes be present when the box is opened, and may be compared to a heaters version of “new
car smell.” Also, similar to all hearth appliances (woodstoves, etc.), the coating, exposed to heat, will
produce this particular odor during the first few hours of operation. This will dissipate after the break-
in period.
If you are sensitive to odors, you may want to pre-burn the unit in a garage with the
door open until the initial odor dissipates.
