Installation instructions
Ensure that the heater is properly installed before use.
The heater should always be installed horizontally and should only
use the mounting brackets provided.
TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION
3/16” drill bit
Philips screwdriver
HEATER LOCATION
When choosing a location for your new heater, ensure that the general
instructions are followed.
Your heater must be installed on a provided mount or tripod.
The heater should not face the ceiling or ammable substances.
Ensure that there is no possibility of ammable material coming
into contact with the heater or lying near the heater.
This heater is weather resistant (IP65) and can be used indoors or
outdoors. If using outdoors, use a waterproof outlet and cable.
Cold climate installation note
Placing the unit under a window or on a poorly insulated wall may result
in the heater reading a colder ambient temperature than the actual
room temperature.
DO NOT USE in the following areas:
Locations with gasoline, paint, or ammable liquids
Wet or moist locations
Closets
Do not use directly near a bathtub, a shower, a swimming pool
POWER CONNECTION GUIDELINES
Heat Storm Heaters are classied as appliances. Each heater and
appliance should have its own dedicated circuit.
This heater is designed for standard 120-volt, 20-amp outlets and
should only be connected to a properly grounded outlet. Plug the heater
directly into a wall outlet with the cord fully unwound; do not use
extension cords, surge protectors, or relocatable power taps. If you have
to use an extension cord, the cord should be No. 16 AWG minimum size
and rated not less than 1500 watts. Do not use this heater with a timer
background
device that automatically turns it on while unattended (e.g., Alexa or
Google programmed plug).
Ensure the cord is not concealed under carpeting, rugs, runners, or
similar coverings. Avoid routing it under furniture or appliances and
position it away from high-trafc areas to prevent tripping hazards.
Regularly inspect your heater cord and plug connections. A loose-tting
outlet can cause the plug to overheat or start a re. Ensure the plug ts
tightly in the outlet. Check frequently during use to ensure the plug and
outlet are not hot. If they are, discontinue using the heater and have the
outlet replaced by a qualied electrician.
Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances, and overheating of the outlet
may occur even if it has not happened with other appliances.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This heater operates on 120 volts. The cord features a three-blade
grounded plug, shown in gure A. If using an adapter to connect a
three-blade grounding-type plug into a two-slot receptacle(gure B),
ensure the grounding lug extending from it is connected to a
permanent ground. Do not use the adapter if a three-slot grounded
receptacle is available.
CAUTION
High temperature, risk of re, keep electrical cords,
drapery, furnishings, and other combustibles at least
3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the heater and away
from the side and rear. To reduce the risk of re, do
not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of the heater.
