ZONE HEATING SAVES!

The concept of Zone Heating is simple. Use High Efficiency heaters to heat the rooms you use most during the times you use these areas and turn back the thermostat to your central heating system. To achieve the maximum benefit it is important to understand your heater and where best to locate it.

Please follow these suggestions:

  1.  Close doors to areas you do not wish to heat.
  2. Locate a three prong outlet along an interior wall if possible. Position the heater so that the warm air can blow unobstructed across the room towards the exterior walls.
  3. Check your windows and doors for the infiltration of cold air and insulate as needed to avoid heat loss. Rapid heat loss will minimize the effectiveness of your Infrared heater as it would any conventional type heater.
  4. Keep the area around the heater free of obstructions to insure maximum airflow. Keep electrical cords, drapery, furniture, and other combustibles 3 feet (0.9 M) away from the front of the heater and away from the sides.
  5. Avoid locating your heater in high traffic areas or in direct sunlight.
  6. Avoid locating your heater near your central heating thermostat.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER

WARNING: Before servicing this heater be sure to unplug heater from wall outlet. Do not only turn off heater from the main “ON/OFF” switch, be sure to unplug this heater.

Note: The power cord has a polarized plug (with one blade wider than the other) that will only fit in a polarized outlet one way. If it does not insert easily try reversing the plug. If it still does not fit contact your electrician to replace your outlet. DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
A 15 AMP, 120 Volt, 60Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the heater will be on a dedicated circuit. Other appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to blow when the heater is in operation. The unit comes standard with a 6′ (1828mm) long three wire cord exiting from the rear of the fireplace.
WARNING:

  • Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and all other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury.
  • Do not use this fireplace if any part of it has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the electrical system if necessary.

LEG ASSEMBLY

WARNING: Do not use this heater with missing, damaged, or broken legs.

  • Four (4) legs
  • Twelve (12) screws
  • Tools required: Phillips Screwdriver
  • Lay stove upside down on a padded surface to avoid scratches to the surface of your stove.
  • Line up holes in the leg with holes in the underside of the stove body. With the use of the screwdriver secure leg with the screws provided (3 screws per leg) as shown in the figure below.Comfort Glow ES4215 Freestanding Electric Stove-fig2

LOCATING YOUR ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

Your new freestanding electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere indoors in your home. However, when choosing a location for your new electric fireplace, ensure that the general instructions and warnings from pages 3 and 4 are followed. For best results, install the electric fireplace out of direct sunlight.

  • If you are placing the heater in an alcove, make sure that there is at least 6 inches of space on all sides to ensure good air circulation.
  • The fireplace heater must not be located over a fixed electrical socket. The socket must always be accessible in order to disconnect the heater from the electrical supply for maintenance.
  • Use your heater only in dry environments. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations. Never locate the heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container. Do not use your heater outdoors. Do not use near sinks, swimming pools or other damp areas such as flooded basements, garages, etc or anyplace where the heater could come in contact with water.
