Questions & Answers

Questions

  1. Does the ECO reduce electric use? For example, with having the product plugged in, does the unit have a battery that is charged up and then when clicking on ECO, is the battery used to then reduce electric usage?

    1 answer

    1. The ECO mode is a computerized mode used to optimize the energy efficiency. It will programmatically select between high and low power model to heat up the room to the desired temperature in the most effective way. Once the desired temperature is achieved, the heater will maintain the room to the set temperature. ECO mode is the environmental friendly operating mode.
