OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
OPTIMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
To get the most out of your Soleus Air Micathermic heater, follow these helpful hints:
1. All electric heaters are limited to maximum of 1500 watts (per UL and ETL requirements). Due to this
limitation all electric heaters can heat approximately 150 square feet. Micathermic heaters fit in this
category, but they are able to provide a more comfortable and consistent heat than other heating
technologies.
2. For optimal performance, place the heater in a room and close all windows and doors. This will confine the
heat to the area that needs it most.
3. To save energy and in turn save money in the winter, place the heater in a room or area that needs extra
heat instead of raising the thermostat on your central heating system. This heater will function very well as
an additional heating source and can easily maintain the temperature in most rooms and attached
bathrooms. There is no need to increase the heat in the entire house when you only need comfort in the
room in which you are currently located.
ABOUT ECO MODE
ECO mode is an energy saving function that limits the amount of electricity consumed by the heater. Once the
heater reaches a preset temperature, ECO mode will automatically turn on. Once ECO mode is on, the heater
will decrease energy consumption to 1000 watts while still maintaining the set temperature on the digital
thermostat.
