Frequently Asked
Questions

WHY DOES THE FAN TURN ON AND BLOW COLD AIR EVERY THREE MINUTES? When the heater is set on the auto mode and the room temperature has reached the desired temperature or the
room temperature is warmer than the preset temperature the unit will stop heating (both the fan motor and the bulbs will shut
down). The heater is designed with a feature that will detect the room temperature every three minutes. This feature
works by having the fan run for around 20 seconds every three minutes, the purpose is to draw the air from the room into the
sensor to get a more accurate reading of the room temperature so that the heater is not relying on temperature right around
the unit which typically remains warmer due to the heater still inside the unit. The purpose of this feature to give
the heater better control to maintain the temperature in the room more evenly.
HOW MANY KILOWATTS PER HOUR DOES THE HEATER USE? The EdenPURE 1000 Gen 3 was tested by an independent lab in a home environment and determined to use 1.38
kilowatts per hour in Full Power Mode and 0.9 kilowatts per hour in Energy Savings Mode.
The power light will come on automatically when the unit is plugged in. Once the power button is pressed the
temperature level light bar will illuminate.
CAN THE HEATING ELEMENTS BE REPLACED? Yes. If at any time during the three year warranty something would happen with the unit, we will replace/repair
your unit. During or after the warranty period, please submit a service request (available through the troubleshooting guide
for your related product). If your warranty is expired, we will submit your information to a qualified service center to assist
you with your product.
- Unpackage heater. Cut open tape area, fold back flaps and gently turn entire box upside down. Lift
box from styrofoam packing. Remove styrofoam, turn upright. We recommend keeping the packaging for off season storage and
any transporting needs.
- Find a level and unobstructed location to
place the unpackaged heater.
- Plug the power cord directly into an
unused grounded110 volt 15 amp or higher circuit receptacle. Insert 2 "AA" batteries into the battery
compartment on the remote control.
- Push the "power" button
located on the front of the heater or the remote control to turn the heater on. Set the Mode Key to "Auto".
Adjust the "temp up" and "temp down" buttons until the desired temperature is reached. Once the
desired temperature is reached the heater will cycle on and off to maintain the room temperature. When the GEN3 is set
on the "Auto" mode and cycling off and on, it has been equiped with an Energy Savings feature. The unit will
run on full power until it gets to within 2 degrees of the desired temperature. At this point it will augomatically
go into an energy savings mode which shuts down 2 of the heater elements and lowers the fan speed. Not only will this
save energy, it also keeps the room temperature closer to the desired temperature. If the room temperature should fall
below 2 degrees of the desired temperature, the unit will reuturn to the full power mode until the desired temperature is
reached.
- Switch the Mode Key to "High" in order to have
the heater stay on high heater and not cycle on and off.
- To turn
the heater off, press the "Power" button, the fan will continue to run until all of the heat has been expelled and
will then turn off.
- The heater is equipped with a temperature limiting
control contained inside the unit. If the heater stops working, shut the power off and let the unit cool down.
Turn the power back on and resume use.
ABS is a heat resistant copolymer (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene).
MY HEATER WILL NOT TURN ON. - Make sure the power source is good. Plug in a lamp to see if it works correctly.
- Make sure the front power switch/button is set to the “ON” position.
- Unplug the power for 30 minutes. Plug the power back in and try operating the heater again. This will reset the internal
sensors.
- Unplug the power for 30 minutes. Plug the power back
in and try operating the heater again. This will reset the internal sensors.
- The heater is designed to be operated in temperatures less than 75 degrees Fahrenheit. The heater will not operate
when the temperature is too high. Test the heater in a room that is below 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bring the heater inside to warm up for at least one hour before operating if it has been stored in a freezing or
near freezing environment.
- Make sure the filter is clean.
- Remember, it will take a few minutes for the heater to warm up.
The fan will start to blow after the heater has warmed up.
WHY DOES THE FAN SPEED CHANGE WHEN OPERATING IN AUTO MODE? When the unit is set on the "Auto" mode and cycling off and on, it has been equipped with and Energy
Savings feature. The unit will run on full power until it gets to within 2 degrees of the desired temperature.
At this point it will automatically go into an energy savings mode which shuts down 2 of the heating elements and lowers the
fan speed. Not only will this save energy, it also keeps the room temperature closer to the desired temperature.
If the room temperature should fall below 2 degrees of the desired temperature, the unit will return to the full power mode
until the desired temperature is reached again.
CAN I USE THE HEATER TO HEAT MULTIPLE ROOMS AT ONE TIME? Yes. Keep in mind that heating will vary based on how open your floor plan is and the sizes of the rooms involved.
We have heard back from many customers stating that with the help of ceiling fans they have been able to heat multiple rooms
simultaneously by placing the unit in a central room. Our suggestion is to just give it a try to see if it works for you.
MY POWER CORD OR PLUG IS HOT. This is usually when the cord is plugged into a loose fitting receptacle. It can also be caused by overloading
the circuit with more appliances than recommended, using an unapproved extension cord, plug adapter or power strip.
MY HEATER WILL NOT TURN OFF. - Make sure the front power switch/button is set to the “OFF” position.
- Remember, the fan will continue to run until the heat chambers have cooled down. After a few minutes the fan will
shut off automatically.
- Unplug the power for 30 minutes. Plug
the power back in and try operating the heater again. This will reset the internal sensors.
WILL I BE ABLE TO USE THE HEATER IN A BASEMENT OR GARAGE? Yes, but keep in mind that rooms with little insulation will not retain the heat as efficiently. Bare concrete
floors, which act as a heat sink with any type of heating will absorb some of the heat. Placing the heater a few feet above
the floor will allow for more efficient heating.
DO THE HEATERS HAVE FILTERS? HOW DO I CLEAN THE FILTER? The EdenPure and SunTwin heaters come equipped with a washable lifetime filter which is easy to clean. The
manufacturer recommends the filter be cleaned regularlly as needed. To do this, follow these steps: - Press the tab on the top of the filter to release the filter and pull it straight out.
- Run warm tap water over the filter, the opposite direction of air flow, until water runs clear. The
filter might excrete some filtered residue, so be cautious not to drip on any stainable surfaces such as carpeting. You can
also soak the filter in water mixed with a small amount of mild dish soap (don’t forget to rinse with water after soaking
filter).
- Shake the filter over a sink until excess water is removed and allow
it to drip dry completely before reinstalling. DO NOT force the filter to dry using any alternative methods.
- Reinstall the filter to the rear of the unit by positioning the filter back in place.
Zone heating is about focusing heat where people spend the most time. After all, there is no point to heating
multiple rooms to 68+ degrees when they are not in use.
CAN I USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH MY HEATER? Avoid the use of extension cords because the extension cord may overheat and cause a risk of fire, however
if you have to use an extension cord, the cord shall be no. 14awg minimum size and rated not less than 1875 watts. The extension
cord shall be a 3 wire cord with a grounding type cord and plug connector.
CAN I USE THE HEATER AND ANOTHER APPLIANCE AT THE SAME TIME? Yes, as long as they are not on the same circuit. Zone heaters are considered to be an appliance. You should
not run more than one larger appliance on a single circuit breaker. Your freezer, refrigerator, microwave oven, washing machine,
dryer, and other such appliances should not share a circuit breaker.
When the heater is not going to be used for an extended period of time, please do the following: - Unplug heater.
- Wind up electrical cord
so as to keep it off of the ground.
- Cover the heater to prevent
dust from accumulating on filter or internally.
- Store the heater
in a dry, low dust environment.
