What is zone heating?
Zone heating focuses heat where people spend the most time. After all, there is
no point in heating multiple rooms to +68 degrees when not in use.
Can I use an extension cord, surge protector, or power strip with my
heater?
No. The DR. INFRARED HEATER is designed to plug directly into a grounded
120V 15 Amp or higher circuit receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or
relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
How many kilowatts per hour does the heater use?
The DR. INFRARED HEATER MODEL DR-998 uses approximately
1.26 kilowatts per hour.
What is the BTU Rating for the heater?
The DR. INFRARED HEATER MODEL DR-998 is approximately 5200 BTUs.
The power cord feels warm to the touch; should I be concerned?
It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or
cord which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may be a
result of a worn electrical outlet. Worn outlets or receptacles should be
replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging this heater into a worn
outlet may result in overheating of the power cord or even a fire.
I don’t have a grounded outlet; can I use a cord adapter or remove the
grounding plug?
NO. If you don’t have a grounded outlet, contact a licensed electrician in your
area for advice. Removing or altering any part of the heater is unsafe and will
also void your warranty.
