Like most portable heaters, a Pelonis oil-filled heater doesn’t require any special installation beyond taking precautions to not place the heater near items that can catch fire from a spark or the heat that the heater generates.

Things You Will Need

  • Vacuum
  • Lint-free cloth
  1. Turn your new Pelonis heater over. Attach each caster wheels base assembly to one end of the heater onto the U-shaped screws and then screw the butterfly nuts onto the screws until tight. When finished, return the heater to its original position.

  2. Place the heater near a wall outlet – approximately 3 feet from all walls and any combustible materials, such as furniture, curtains or paper. Move the heater to the spot you’ve selected.

  3. Unwrap the cord from the cord wrap and plug in your heater.

  4. Select a power level -- high, medium or low -- by pressing the “Power” button repeatedly until you reach the selection that you want. Select a temperature between 65 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit by pressing the “Temperature” button repeatedly. Select a time for the heater to turn on using the same method – for example, press the “Timer” button repeatedly to cycle through two-, four- or eight-hour options.

  5. Wait for the heater to begin heating the room.

  6. Clean the heater regularly to remove dust or other materials that might burn by vacuuming it with a brush attachment when it’s not running or hot. Before and after each heating season, turn off and unplug your heater, wait for it to cool and then wipe it with a dry cloth.
