WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR COMFORT FURNACE

The Comfort Glow portable comfort furnace is not intended to replace your central heating system nor is it intended to be a sole heating source. Your comfort furnace is intended as a supplemental zone heating source. The goal of this heater is to reduce the total home heating costs by allowing you to turn back the central heat system and provide supplemental heat to the rooms being occupied.
The Comfort glow portable comfort furnace is not an instant room heater. It may take 24-36 hours for your heater to reach maximum efficiency. The portable comfort furnace will warm all the elements in the area being heated (furniture, floors, walls etc.) This will take some time based on the size of the area, insulation ambient temperature and many other factors but once these elements are heated they will help to maintain a steadier room temperature and less on/off cycling of your central heat. You will notice that the furnace does not rely on high speed flow of air. This sensitive flow is by design. The purpose of the built in circulator is to move a large volume of air without creating hot/cold spots in the area being heated, and thereby promoting a more consistent room temperature.

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.

WARNING : It is normal for the power cord to feel warm to touch; however, a loose fit between the outlet and the plug may cause overheating of the plug. If this occurs, try inserting the plug into a different outlet. Contact a qualified electrician to inspect the original outlet for damage.
