Frequently Asked Questions - Hybrid 1500 Real Flame

How do I install the Hybrid 1500?
The Hybrid 1500 can be placed on a flat surface as a freestanding unit or mounted on the wall using the included bracket. Ensure at least 0.5 m clearance from flammable materials. For wall mount, follow the drilling template in the manual.
Can I use the flame effect without heat?
Yes, press the Flame button on the remote or panel to activate the flame effect independently of the heater. This allows you to enjoy the ambiance year-round.
Why does the heater turn off automatically?
The heater has a built-in timer (set from 1 to 8 hours) and safety features like overheat protection and tip-over switch. If it turns off unexpectedly, check if the timer was set or if it tipped over. Also ensure vents are not blocked.
How do I clean the glass front?
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the glass. For stubborn smudges, slightly dampen the cloth with water and dry immediately. Never use abrasive cleaners or spray directly on the unit.
What is the recommended room size for the Hybrid 1500?
The heater is suitable for rooms up to 37 m² (400 sq ft) with standard ceiling height. For larger rooms, it may serve as a supplemental heat source.
Does the Hybrid 1500 have a remote control?
Yes, a remote control is included. It allows you to adjust heat settings, flame brightness, thermostat, and timer from a distance. Batteries (2 x AAA) are included.
How do I replace the flame bulbs?
Unplug the heater and allow it to cool. Remove the screws on the back panel to access the bulb compartment. Replace with the specified E12 base bulb (7W max). Consult the manual for exact model.
Can I use an extension cord?
It is recommended to plug the heater directly into a wall outlet. If an extension cord is necessary, use a heavy-duty cord rated for at least 15 amps and ensure it is fully grounded.
Why is there a strange smell when first used?
A slight odor is normal during the first few uses as components burn off manufacturing residues. Run the heater on high for 30 minutes in a well-ventilated area. If smell persists, turn off and contact support.
How do I reset the heater after a safety shut-off?
If the overheat protection or tip-over switch activates, unplug the heater for 10 minutes. Ensure the unit is on a stable, flat surface and vents are clear. Plug back in and turn on. The reset is automatic.

Commissioning the powerflue systed is an additional requirement to commissioning the appliance. The appliance must also be commissioned as per AS5601.1.2013.

In order to select a suitable fan, it is necessary to determine the volume and temperature of the flue gases. Before this can be done the percentage of CO2 in the flue gases shall be decided.

If discharge is at a low level, 1% CO 2 may be used in the design formula. For other situations, values between 4% and 8% may be used. These values will give flue gas temperatures of 140°C and 220°C respectively.

For appliances with modulating burners, the CO2 concentration in the flue shall be considered when the appliance is operating at normal rate, i.e. 8% CO2 in the combustion chamber.

The quantity of flue gases to be handled by the fan may be determined by the following simplified formula, which is sufficiently accurate for most flue gases currently distributed. A suitable fan may then be selected.

Q = T/R

Where Q = volume of flue gases, litres per second

T = total gas consumption of appliances connected to flue megajoules per hour

R = desired % CO₂ concentration by volume in the flue gases at the discharge point
