The Venmar HEPA 4100 model may not start after installation if the main switch on the unit is not set to NORMAL/REMOTE when using the wall control. Also, ensure the unit is properly grounded, plugged into a 3-prong grounding receptacle, and not connected to an extension cord. If the wall control screen shows E2, the temperature sensor may be defective, causing the unit to switch to Off mode.
