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 more steady room temperature and less
on/off cycling of your central heat. You will notice that the comfort 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.

For Best Heating Results 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.
