Suggestions for Best Performance  
To assure maximum performance of your Oreck Heatwise™  
Infrared Heater, please review the following recommendations:  
• Do not locate the heater in an area with a high air exchange  
rate in and out of the room. Heat produced should be  
contained in the room.  
• Try placing the heater near a warmer inside wall and direct  
the output toward a cooler outside wall. The cooler outside  
wall will tend to draw the generated heat towards it, which  
will allow for more efficient heating.  
• Placing the heater next to a cord air return will draw the heat  
away from the area to be heated. Try closing or covering the  
5
 
cold air return. This will alow for more efficient heating.  
Experiment with the placement of the heater to see what  
works best for you.  
Operation  
To ensure maximum efficiency, a 30% minimum relative  
humidity should be maintained in the heated environment.  
• The heater is designed to operate for maximum efficiency  
in the 68-74 degree range. Due to the soft heat concept,  
temperatures at 68 degrees F feel as though it were  
72 degrees F. This is due to the heat mixing with humidity  
evenly for head-to-toe comfort.  
• When the heater is placed in an isolated area, i.e. basement  
or recreation area, any existing HVAC heating system vents  
should be closed in that area, if possible. This allows the  
heater to maintain the isolated area more efficiently.  
• If placing the heater a few feet above the floor, such in  
rooms with large areas of bare concrete, make sure the  
heater is secure and won’t fall. This will allow for more  
efficient heating since concrete acts as a heat sink and will  
tend to draw the heat in its direction. Optimally, concrete  
floors should be covered to provide some insulation factor  
from the concrete.  
• For zone heating: set your central heating system to a lower  
temperature. Place the heater in the area you spend the most  
of your time. Now set the heater to your comfort level.  
• When heating larger areas, place the heater in a central  
location.  
• If the heater is used in an extremely dirty area, the filter  
must be cleaned more frequently to maintain heater  
performance.

Maintenance  
The only maintenance that is required for the heater is the  
periodic cleaning of the heater’s electrostatic filter (located at  
the back of the unit). This cleaning should be performed at least  
once a month, or earlier as dust becomes visible on the filter, to  
ensure efficient operation of the heater.  
Cleaning the Electrostatic Filter  
Clean the filter often to provide for maximum performance.  
When necessary, wipe the cabinet clean with a soft damp cloth  
and/or furniture polish.  
Removing Filter  
Replacing Filter  
1. Power the heater off by pressing the Power Button, located  
on the left side of the Control Panel. (Note: The sound of the  
heater’s fans will continue until the heat has been completely  
vented, thus protecting the unit and preventing waste by  
cycling the remaining heat into the room. DO NOT unplug  
the heater until the sound of the fan has stopped. Doing so  
may cause damage to the unit.)  
2. When the heater’s fans have stopped (the heater will become  
completely silent) unplug the heater.  
3. Release the Electrostatic Filter by pushing the filter up from  
below.  
4. Remove the Electrostatic Filter by pulling the filter down  
and out.  
5. Clean the filter by vacuuming the filter until clear.  
6. Replace the filter by sliding the top upwards into the spring-  
loaded slot on the back of the heater, then gently press the  
bottom of the filter into place.

Maintenance  
Storage  
When the heater is not being used for an extended period of  
time, observe the following steps to preserve the life and per-  
formance of the unit:  
• Unplug heater (Do not unplug heater while heater is running).  
• Gently wrap the power cord into the cord storage compartment  
in the back of your heater. This will help prevent undue wear  
and tear on the cord.  
• Cover the heater to prevent dust from accumulating on or  
in heater.  
• Store heater in a dry, low dust environment.  
NOTE: Before resuming use of heater, ensure the filter and  
front grille are clean and free of all dust and dirt. Also check  
the entire length of the power cord to ensure no damage has  
compromised the integrity of the cord.
