WARRANTY INFORMATION
2 years against all defects / 5 years on the heating element.
All CONVECTAIR heaters are subjects to a double warranty: 2 years on all parts and
manufacturing defects and 5 years on the heating element itself.
Warranty is applicable from date of purchase by the customer and under certain spe-
cific conditions. All details are furnished with each heater. Please keep your invoices
(purchase and / or installation).
NEVER USE ABRASIVE OR ACETONE-BASED PRODUCTS TO CLEAN THE HEATER
AS THIS MAY CAUSE DETERIORATION OF THE EPOXY FINISH.
ANY REPAIR ON YOUR CONVECTAIR HEATER SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY A
QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN AFTER DISCONNECTING THE HEATER.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
To keep your unit clean, regular maintenance is suggested.
To remove dust, use a soft cloth. To remove stain, use a damp cloth.
Never use this heater during construction work or other activities that generate a lot
of dust.
For a better performance and a maximum efficiency, it is suggested that dust and
lint be regularly removed from the protective grill situated at the base of your heater.
CAUTION: Before any cleaning, make sure the power has been turned off at
the circuit breaker panel and that the heating element of the heater is cool.
NOTE: In certain cases, the grill may become yellow after a while. This phenomenon
is not due to a manufacturing defect. It is caused by the smoke or suspended particles
present in the surrounding air, heated and blown out through the grill. This coloration
can be reduced by cleaning the grill on a weekly basis.
The first time your CONVECTAIR heats, a light smoke could be released. This is normal
and should disappear after about 2 to 3 minutes.
