FAQs

Can this heater be used in a bathroom?

This heater is not designed for use in bathrooms or other high-humidity environments. It should be used in dry indoor locations only.

What is the power consumption of this heater?

The heater has two power settings: 1000W and 2000W. The actual power consumption will depend on the setting selected.

How large of a room can this heater effectively heat?

It is most effective for heating small to medium-sized rooms, such as bedrooms, studies, or offices. For very large or poorly insulated rooms, its effectiveness may be limited.

Does the fan function when the heat is on?

Yes, the fan circulates the heated air when the heating element is active. You can also use the fan function independently for cool air circulation.

What safety features are included?

The heater features an automatic safety thermal switch that turns off the heating element if it overheats or if airflow is blocked. It also has a general overheat thermostat.

Is assembly required before use?

No, no assembly is necessary. The heater is ready to use straight out of the box; simply unpack and plug it in.

Troubleshooting

Heater not turning on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a functioning wall socket. Check if the mains switch on the heater is in the 'on' position. If the problem persists, try a different power outlet.

Heater stops working after a short period

The automatic safety thermal switch may have activated due to overheating or restricted airflow. Ensure vents are clear and the heater is not covered. Allow the unit to cool down completely before attempting to restart.

No heat is produced, only fan operation

Verify that the heater has been set to one of the heating modes (1000W or 2000W) and not just the fan-only setting. Check that the thermostat is set higher than the current room temperature.

Unusual noise during operation

Ensure the heater is placed on a level surface. Check for any obstructions in the fan vents. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
