1. Is using the True North Heater at 110V and 50 HZ safe?
We cannot advise the heater to be used at 50 Hz. CSA and UL have tested this unit to only be used at 60 HZ, 120V.
2. Can I mount the True North Heater upside down on the ceiling for use as a window defroster?
No, this application is not suitable. The heater must be used in the upright position and has not been designed or tested to be used upside down. Inappropriate use of the heater could create a safety risk.
3. What temperature does the True North Heater turn on and turn off?
The snowflake represents 3°C (38°F) and automatically turns on when the temperature drops to 3°C (38°F). The heater will shut off at around 5°C (41⁰F). The maximum temperature of the thermostat is 55°C (131⁰F).
Each setting is based on wattage. Temperature readings are not available for each setting.
4. What is the wattage and amp draw on each setting of the True North Heater?
The wattage and amp draw for each setting is as follows;
Low – 600 W
MED – 900 W
HI – 1500 W
The snowflake setting on the True North heater can be used on each fan setting (Hi, Med, Low) and would use the same amps. The anti-freeze setting is a separate operation. When turned to the anti-freeze snowflake on the thermostat control knob, you can turn the fan to any setting you choose.
When used on the first setting, the air temperature will take longer to rise and become warm enough for the heater to shut off.
5. I have a True North Heater and the lights are not working, but the heater is functioning. What should I do?
The lights are a safety feature, and they should be functioning. Please get in touch with our Customer Service Team for assistance.
6. Can the motor on the True North Heater cause a spark?
The motor is sparkless. However, it does have an open element. If dust or hair were to impact the element, it could create a spark.
The True North heater should not be used in the following applications;
- Not to be used in areas where gas, paint or flammable liquids are used or stored.
- Not to be used in a calf warmer.
- Not to be used in the engine compartment of a boat.
7. Will the True North Heater turn back on if the power were to go out and then come back on?
Yes, the True North heater is designed to turn back on after a power outage.
8. What is the operating range of the thermostat on the True North Heater?
The operating range of the thermostat is 6⁰C - 55⁰C (42.8⁰F - 131⁰F).
9. Can the True North Heater be used in a greenhouse?
A True North space heater should not be used if the greenhouse is damp or humid. The heater must be operated and maintained as detailed in the owner's manual. It must be kept dry and used only indoors. This heater was designed for home use in bedrooms, living rooms and recreation rooms. It was not designed for damp environments. If the greenhouse is fully enclosed and dry, and the heater can be operated as indicated in the owner's manual, then it is safe to do so. If there is any doubt, then the heater should not be used.
10. Do you offer internal replacement parts for the True North Heater?
Due to CSA (Canadian Standards Association) and UL (Underwriter's Laboratories) safety regulations and compliances, we cannot provide internal replacement parts for our AC corded products, nor can we authorize any self-repairs.
11. Does the True North Heater have an overheat protector?
The 9206 True North heater has two separate overheat protectors/fuses that will safely shut the heater down if it overheats. The first fuse is resettable; as when it senses, the heater is starting to overheat, it will activate and shut the heater down. This fuse can be reset by unplugging the heater for ten minutes and plugging the unit back in.
The second fuse is a "one-time" fuse, which will sense if the heat is significantly overheating. If this were to occur, this fuse will activate and permanently shut down the heater. This fuse cannot be reset, and the heater must be replaced.
12. How long is the power cord on the True North Heater?
The True North heater is equipped with a 6-foot power cord.
13. Why is there a discrepancy between the ambient room temperature and the temperature of the True North Heater?
The thermostat is specific to the internal temperature of the heater, not the actual heating area. Therefore, the temperature of the room and the temperature where the heater is placed could be two different temperatures.
14. Can the True North and the Pali Engine Compartment Heater be run on the same circuit?
No, it is not recommended. Each heater should be used on its own circuit to ensure it will work safely when required.
