Setup and Installation
The ENVI heater is designed for quick and easy installation, typically taking only two minutes. No specialized tools or contractors are required. The packaging itself includes a template for precise mounting.
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Wall: Identify the desired mounting location. The heater is designed to be wall-mounted and will only operate when securely attached.
- Use Mounting Template: The product packaging doubles as an installation template. Position it against the wall and floor to mark the screw locations.
- Install Mounting Clips: Secure the two mounting clips to the wall using the provided screws and drywall anchors. Ensure they are firmly in place and level.
- Mount the Heater: Carefully align the heater with the installed mounting clips and gently press it onto the wall until it locks securely.
- Connect Power: Plug the heater's power cord into a standard 120V electrical outlet. The cord features a right-angle plug for a neat appearance. Any excess cord length can be tucked into the cavity at the back of the unit.

Operating Instructions
The ENVI heater features simple and intuitive controls for ease of use.
Controls:
- Power Button: Located on the control panel, press to turn the heater on or off.
- Thermostat Dial: Rotate the dial to adjust the desired room temperature. The heater will automatically maintain the set temperature.
- Power Light: An auto-dimming power light indicates operation. It dims in dark rooms to minimize disturbance.
