TROUBLESHOOTING

Note : The troubleshooting section below is for solving frequently asked questions for the heater unit. If your problem persists, please contact customer support.

Questions and Answers

1. Why does it smell when I use it?
A : To protect the metal of new products, we add a layer of protective oil to the surface. During the first use of the heater there may be some odor, this is considered normal and not harmful to health. For first use, we recommend turning on the product at maximum power (86°F) for approximately 2 hours in a ventilated environment to remove the odor.It is also possible that the odor is caused by hair or dust in contact with the heating element. Please make sure that no foreign objects get inside the heater.

2. Why does the room warm up slowly?
A ：Convection heating process is soft and comfortable, generally need at least 1 hour to heat the full room, the specific time spent on heating is affected by the use of the area, house warming effect, the surrounding environment and other factors.During use it is recommended to close doors and windows to prevent heat loss and to keep the heater temperature set at a maximum of 86°F(30℃).This helps to warm up the room faster.

3. Why do you sometimes hear switch sounds?

A: The heater is equipped with a temperature sensor and automatic operation mode, when the set temperature on the heater is reached in the room, the heater automatically switches off the heating, so it is possible to hear the switch switching sound at that moment.

4. What is the difference between this Ballu convection heater and other oil heater?
A : Oil heaters heat the medium(oil) and then heat the air, which will cause too much heat to be wasted in the mediun(oil), resulting in low thermal efficiency. Because the heat loss rate of the room is fast, the thermal: efficiency of the oil heater is low and there is no continuous heating effect, so th room temperatrue will be lower. Ballu convection electric heater direcrly heats the air through special alloy hearting material, without intermediate medium, with high thermal efficiency, rapid room temperature rise, and by virtue of natural air convection, the indoor temperature is very uniform.

5. What is the difference between Ballu convection heater and air conditioner?
A : The air conditioner will cause the indoor air to flow sharply, which will make people feel dry and lack of oxygen, and because the installation position of the air conditioner is high, it will cause the experience of hot head and cold feet. In addition, the air exchange principle of the air conditioner determines its heating effect. When the outdoor temperature is very low, the air conditiner loses its heating effect.
The Ballu convection heater is based on the physical principle of hot air rising and cold air falling to achieve natural air convection without direct blowing, and can make the temperature of the upper and lower positions of the room the same, and the heating feels very comfortable.

6. How to save on electricity bills?
A : Power connsumption depends on the size of the room, the insulation of the room, and the temperature you expect. It is recommended to use in a space of 160-220 square feet(Can be used up to 300 square feet, but requires longer heating time), close doors and windows to reduce heat loss, and adjust the heater to the highest temperature and power for faster heating. When the room enters the thermal insulation state, the temperature will be stable, and the power consumption per hour will be reduced. At this time, a lower temperature value can be set. You can also save on electricity bills with different mode temperatures, which are used at different times of the day and in different situations.
