INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. Will the room heat up faster if I put the thermostat on 90 degrees when I
get home?
A. No. The thermostat is just an on-off switch that is temperature sensitive. The
heater is either on or off.
Q. My baseboards are on outside walls, should fan heaters be also?
A. No. A fan heater, recessed into an outside wall, will create extra heat loss
and air leakage for that room. An inside wall, facing a cold window, is the best
location.
!
Q. My thermostat is above my fan-heater. Why?
A. The fan heater blows warm air away from itself and into the room. By the time
the warm air has recirculated and reached the thermostat above the heater, a
comfortable room temperature has been achieved.
Q. Will my electric bill be lower if I use 120 volt heaters?
A. No. Same size 120 volt and 240 volt heaters will use the same amount
of power, measured in watts or kilowatts. Your electric company charges by
-
kilowatt hours.
Q. Should I clean my heater?
A. Yes. Once a year you must clean and inspect your heaters. You may request
a copy of the operation & maintenance for your heater if you have lost it.
Q. Why does my new heater produce smoke when I turn it on?
A. In the manufacturing process a high temperature stove paint is used, which
will burn when the heater is energized. The smoke will stop after the heater has
fully heated. There is no cause for alarm. It is recommended to open a window
during initial operations.
Q. If I need to replace my heater, can I use a higher wattage heater?
-
A. Your electrical system was sized for the original heater's wattage. A smaller
heater would be OK, but a larger heater may create a hazard. Have the circuit
checked by a licensed electrician.
Q. Are King heaters actually made in Seattle, Washington?
A. Yes. Since 1958 we have made quality residential, commercial and industrial
heating products in the same location.

Between 5-10 years you may want to upgrade your thermostat, as the sensing
element may not be as accurate as when new. The most accurate thermostats
are the electronic ES230 or ESP230 models. If, in the future, you decide to
remodel or add rooms to your home, you won't have to worry about the size of
your heating system. With electric heat you can add to the heating system, in
large or small increments.

Zone Control (setting the thermostats):
Thermostat settings are a matter of personal preference.
A few days of adjustments will help you determine the
setting that is comfortable for you. Most people keep
their living quarters at 68 to 72ºF (20 to 22ºC) and
sleeping areas at 65ºF (18ºC).
It is also wise to set living area
thermostats back at night, but
not below 60ºF (16ºC).

Temperature & cost relationship:
When setting your thermostat you may want to
consider the relative cost of various temperatures.
The chart at right shows how much higher your
heating bill may be if you like temperatures warmer
than 70ºF (21ºC).
