generAl OPerATIOn
Steffes ETS room heating units utilize off-peak electricity available during those times of the day or night when the
Power Company can supply electricity more economically. During off-peak hours, the room heating unit converts
electricity to heat and stores the heat in its ceramic brick core. The heater stores heat at varying levels depending
upon outdoor temperature, owner preference, utility peak conditions, and the requirements of the space being heated.
A small amount of heat is radiated through the heater’s cabinet; however, most of the heating is accomplished by
a thermostatically controlled blower. When the room temperature sensor senses a temperature below the room
temperature set point, the blower circulates room air through the brick core. This air is heated and discharged back
into the room to maintain a constant, comfortable room temperature.
COnTrOl PAnel
All operational functions of the heater are stored in a microprocessor and accessed through the control panel. (See
Figure 1.) Generally, the user will only need to use this panel to adjust the room temperature.
The four digit LED displays specific operating information. In standard operation, these digits continuously display
current room temperature and one of the following brick core operating modes:

in which case both the AM and PM lights illuminate.
