OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
OPTIMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
To get the most out of your Soleus Air Micathermic heater, follow these helpful hints:
1. All electric heaters are limited to maximum of 1500 watts* (per UL and ETL requirements). Due to this
limitation all electric heaters can heat approximately 150 square feet (the HM1 is limited to 1000W and
100 sq ft.). Micathermic heaters fit in this category, but they are able to provide a more comfortable and
consistent heat than other heating technologies.
2. For optimal performance, place the heater in a room and close all windows and doors. This will confine the
heat to the area that needs it most.
3. To save energy and in turn save money in the winter, place the heater in a room or area that needs extra
heat instead of raising the thermostat on your central heating system. This heater will function very well as
an additional heating source and can easily maintain the temperature in most rooms and attached
bathrooms. There is no need to increase the heat in the entire house when you only need comfort in the
room in which you are currently located.
