WALL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE

  1. The appliance must not be located immediately below a socket outlet.
  2. Your Panel Heater should be installed with at least 150mm clearance from the floor and any other surrounding parts including other appliances and side walls.At least 300mm clearance from ceilings, shelves and soft furnishings.
  3. Do not run the power cord behind the heater.

WALL-MOUNTED HEATERS ARE ONLY TO BE MOUNTED ON HEAT-RESISTANT WALLS THAT COMPLY WITH CURRENT SPECIFICATIONS & BUILDING REGULATIONS

WALL MOUNTED

  1. Make sure the appliance is unplugged and the power switches are off.
  2. Position the panel appliance within one metre of the wall socket. Do not mount in front of orbelow the wall socket. Ensure there is at least 150mm clearance on all sides of the appliance.
  3. Position the mounting bracket in the wall mark the hole positions with a pen or pencil and check they are horizontal with a spirit level. Ensure the two bottom mount holes are at least 150mm from the floor and drill holes as required.
  4. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall with the mounting screws. (For masonry walls use the plastic sheaths).
  5. Insert the back of the device into the mounting bracket. First, find the bottom plug, align and insert it, then align the upper hole and push it toward the wall. You can press down on the protruding part above the bracket so that the bracket slot can better enter the hole position.
  6. lug appliance into a standard 120 volt AC electrical outlet.

  • The remoter is already connected to this heater, so it can be use. But if you need to replace a new remoter, please long-press the ON/OFF of the heater and new remoter at the same time for 4 seconds to reconnect.
  • It is normal and harmless for a new product to smell when it is first used. It is recommended to heat for 2 hours at the maximum power in a ventilated environment, and then it can be used without smell
  • The set temperature may deviate from the room temperature by 2-6°F, depending on the volume and insulation of the room. For large rooms that are easy to cool quickly, we recommend setting the temperature 2-6 F higher than the desired temperature, which will help improve heating efficiency.
  • If the product triggers overheating protection due to misuse, it will not work properly, you need to contact us at BalluCustomerService@gmail.com

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 odour, 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 odour. It is also possible that the odour 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 : The convection heating process is soft and comfortable, and generally needs 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 C ). 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 nossible to hear the switch switching sound at that moment

  4. What is the difference between this Ballu convection heater and another 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 medium (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 temperature will be lower. Ballu convection electric heater directly heats the air through special alloy heating 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 a 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 conditioner 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 consumption 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.

CARE AND CLEANING

  • The heater requires regular cleaning to ensure trouble-free.
  • Unplug the heater from the main supply before cleaning.
