User questions & answers

Question:	Is it normal for the plug to be hot
Answer:	I noticed mine was getting really hot. The instructions says not to use and extension cord but I HAD to so I ended up getting a heavy duty appliance extension cord. The plug only gets warm now, not super hot like before. Even if you’re not using an extension cord and gets hot make sure it’s plugged into a GFI outlet and that will solve the problem.
Question:	I know that infered heats a bigger room and gets hot faster, is there a difference otherwise? Pros and cons of each please. I don't know what infered
Answer:	From my understanding, infrared is 40% more efficient and heats faster (covering more sf as a result). However, the heat is direct and thus dissipates just as fast. Conventional heats the air unlike infrared and is supposed to last longer after the heater is off. Conventional also dehumidifies as a result. Not sure the extent to which all that is true with this specific product... I have the conventional one but not this one so can't compare.
Question:	Does this insert make a crackling sound
Answer:	This model does not make a crackling sound.
Question:	what side does the power cord come out on if your facing the fireplace
Answer:	it comes out the back. the unit is a superb heating unit.

Zone Heating Saves You Money

Zone Heating is a simple way to save money. In many homes, certain rooms, like bedrooms, dens, and basements, are unused much of the day, and don’t need to be as warm at those times. With zone heating, you can use electric heat to warm up the rooms you’re using, and shut off heated air blown in different sections, or zones, so unoccupied space isn’t heated. Turning down your thermostat by 10 – 15 degrees for 8 hours a day can bring you significant savings.*

Infrared Advantages

Like standing in the rays of the sun, infrared technology produces heat that warms you instantly, even as it heats a large area.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the flame feature be turned off for use at night in a bedroom (so the room stays dark
Answer:	Yes, the moving flame feature can be turned off. The logs maintain a very slight glow, that does not disrupt sleep if you wake up in the middle of the night. It's awesome.
Question:	What kind of functionality does the remote have? Does it have a timer to turn on
Answer:	The remote has four function buttons: power; flame setting; temperature; timer. The flame height can be adjusted from 1 to 5; level 1 is lighted embers, level 1 is a low flame, etc. The temperature can be set in increments of 2 degress from 62F to 82F. The remote will allow you to see what the temperature is set at, but you have to adjust it manually from the control panel. The timer can be set to turn the unit off, but not on. It starts at 30 minutes and increases in hourly intervals from 1 hour to 9 hours. Unlike the temperature, the timer can be set with the remote. Your local hardware store might have a timer you could attach to it to turn it on automatically. I don't know that for a fact, but I don't see why it wouldn't operate similarly to any other electrical appliance that can be used with a timer.
Question:	How much does it cost per hour to run
Answer:	It's a very good and responsible question, and yes, there is a way to answer it. It requires you check your electric bill and so some math, but you really only have to do this once. You're going to calculate how much you pay per kilowatt hour (kWh) which really is just how much it costs to run any electrical item in your home for each 1,000 watts. STEP 1: Find your most recent electric bill, look for any charges that are based on killowatt hours (kWh). For example... I live in NYC, and my probably outrageous bill had (Supply @9.1811 cents per kWh) + (Delivery @12.0324 cents per kWh) + (Clean Energy Benefit @ 0.6811 per kWh). I also note that Sales Tax is 4.5% and write all these down. STEP 2: Add them all up then apply sales tax. So for my bill, I get (9.1811) + (12.0324) + (0.6811) = 21.8946 cents per kWh. To factor in the Sales Tax of 4.5%, I calculate (21.8946) * (1.045) = 22.87986 cents per kWh. I round this up to 23 cents to make it easy, so that means it costs me 23 cents per hour to run a 1,000 watt appliance. STEP 3: Multiply your hourly cost by this appliance's wattage. The details indicate this is heater is 120 Volts at 12.5 Amps. To calculate watts is just (volts) * (amps). So (120 volts) * (12.5 amps) = **1,500 watts**. NOTE: this is very typical for major appliances such as air conditioners, space heaters and even running a clothes iron. With that in hand, multiply the kWh cost from STEP 2 by the wattage of this heater. So for me, since it costs me 23 cents per kWh to run something, that means at 1,500 watts it would cost me (23 cents * 1.5) = 34.5 cents to run this heater every hour. Yes, I rounded up a bit earlier (my real cost is 34.31979), but I like to overestimate just a little to play it safe. STEP 4: Multiply your cost to run this hourly by how many hours you might run it. This is where it gets very controversial because I think most people do not understand their own energy costs or usage and get a shock (no pun intended) from their electric bill. Let's say I run this heater 6 hours per day in a 30 day month. That's 180 hours * 34.5 cents per kWh = $62.10 just to run this one heater. STEP 5: Think about how you're heating your home. Remember that 1,500 watts is VERY common for major appliances as noted above, and other smaller heaters might be around the same, or possibly 1,000 watts. Let's say you're a family with a space heater in each room to keep people warm. Let's imagine those space heaters were 1,000 watts each. That means at 3,000 watts, you'd be paying DOUBLE in electrical costs instead of just having the family huddle together near this large heater in the living room. Summary: Do some due diligence and check your electric bill charges per kWh, then check the wattage of each heating appliance and do some simple math according to many electrical appliances you are running to heat your home. This exercise seriously shouldn't take too long to do, and you can use this same method to understand what it costs for air conditioning in the summer, and even how much it costs to run giant flat screen TVs or computers. Though for those panels it's far less... my 55" flat screen TV runs at 250 watts max, and my computer about 300 watts with monitor, computer and max gaming settings. Heating and air conditioning are what crush your electric bill, so do this and you'll see how valuable it is to have one large machine doing heating/cooling for a large area rather than multiple individual ones. PS: I haven't even bought this yet, but I wanted to help educate the person who asked the question, because this is a VERY important thing that so many people don't do, and I don't like seeing people throw money away. IMO, this is a very good purchase just for saving on electrical costs.
Question:	is it noisy
Answer:	Yes the machine is noisy. When the heat is on there is a low drone which isn't bad and is to be expected. The noise from the heater isnt the problem. It's when the flames and heater are on but the heat kicks off bc the room is at the desired temperature. At this point the flames make a very loud and annoying sound. If you lower the flames to the lowest setting this noise too will go away.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the flame realistic? Also, can I put the heater on carpeting
Answer:	My red Duraflame is in my living room. I've gotten comments from visitors to my house about how realistic the fireplace looks. I think it makes the room look cozy. Can you tell the flames are fake? Of course, but they look as real as any faux fireplace that I've seen (and I've owned five different electric fireplaces). I have a black Duraflame fireplace that's been in my three-season sunroom for about six years now, and it's on carpet. So yes, you can put the heater on carpeting.
Question:	How can I purchase remote separately ? I lost mine
Answer:	Try calling Duraflame at 1-888-674-7517 and ask if they will send you a another remote. The part number is P136. Good luck!!
Question:	Do the sides/front get very hot? I have a 8 month old and want to know if it would be safe with her crawling around
Answer:	No, the surface doesn't get hot. That's one of the reasons I bought it. I think it would be safe for an 8 month old, even if he/she pulled themselves up on it. It seems to be very sturdy with a low center of gravity, but I'm not sure I would totally trust a toddler to not pull it over.
Question:	Does this unit contain a thermostat. That is, will it shut itself off when the room temperature reaches a specific temp, and will it turn back on
Answer:	YES THIS UNIT HAS A THERMOSTAT, USE A WALL THERMOMETER AND THE KNOB ON THE LEFT SET TEMPERATURE .Turn the left KNOB fully counter clockwise, then turn the KNOB clockwise in 1/4 turn increments, stopping each time to allow room temperature to stabilize, check WALL THERMOMETER until desired temperature is reached. Leave the KNOB where it is and every time the Heater is turned on it will heat your room to the desired temperature set previously.

Question:	How noisy is this heater? I have Dr. Heater and it is quite noisy. just wanted to compare. thanks
Answer:	Less than 60 decibels. At the present time it is nestled under dining room credenza with 2 inches to spare (top and sides) and is very quiet. I would highly recommend and corner of a room nestled under a piece of furniture at a 45 degree angle so you do not block air intake and front sticking out about 2 or 3 inches so so it is not blowing any 120 to 150 heat on furniture. Front of heater must be at least four(4) feet away from any flammable items. Go to Home depot and get a pistol grip style Infrared thermometer with a laser that measures accurate heat on all objects. The home depot model is Ryobi model IR001, Store SKU #699814. Look it up on Home Depot web site. WARNING, DO NOT POINT LASER AT ANYBODY AND DO NOT LET CHILDREN PLAY WITH IT. Also, keep heater intake rear filter clean. Expect your electric bill to go UP.
Question:	How long is the power cord
Answer:	The power cord is five feet nine inches.

duraflame 9HM8101-C299 Portable Electric Infrared Quartz Heater, Dark Cherry

Portable electric heaters are an ideal solution for any small living space. Unlike a mantel fireplace, a freestanding heater offers you the luxury of easily moving the heater from room to room. The infrared heat helps to maintain natural humidity, for comfortable heat that doesn’t dry out the room’s air. The digital display thermostat and remote control provide added convenience and makes the unit easy to control.

Peace of Mind with Safety Features

Patent-pending Safer Plug fire prevention technology gives you peace of mind. Safer Plug monitors plug temperature with a built-in thermometer. Should the plug temperature rise above safe levels, the plug will immediately shut off, preventing overheating and potentially a dangerous fire.

Infrared Advantages

Like standing in the rays of the sun, infrared technology produces heat that warms you instantly, even as it heats a large area. Plus, infrared heat helps you create a healthier home environment because its gentle heat maintains natural humidity in the air, rather than drying air out, so your family’s skin and airways don’t dry out either. Infrared heating also reduces static electricity.

Zone Heating Saves You Money

Zone Heating is a simple way to save money. In many homes, certain rooms, like bedrooms, dens, and basements, are unused much of the day, and don’t need to be as warm at those times. With zone heating, you can use electric heat to warm up the rooms you’re using, and shut off heated air blown in different sections, or zones, so unoccupied space isn’t heated. Turning down your thermostat by 10 – 15 degrees for 8 hours a day can bring you significant savings.*

User questions & answers

Question:	How long is the cord
Answer:	It should. It just plugs into the AC outlet in the bottom area below fire box. We sure love the way it heats the great room and kitchen!
Question:	Why are there no reviews on this item
Answer:	not sure what you mean by "kit" but it includes the fan and wiring. I had mine installed last week and it works great.
Question:	I have an older home will the power draw cause a problem for me i.e. hot wiring etc. I heard it draws energy equivalent to a 100 watt light bulb yes
Answer:	No. The thermal switch is the control for the automatic on-off feature. Even though your fireplace may feel cool to the touch outside, the location of the thermal switch is likely still warm enough to leave the fan running and circulating. It's working as intended.
Question:	Does the DFI 8511 have an adjustable thermostat
Answer:	If I remember correctly it is on ball bearings, I am really happy with mine, it works great.

User questions & answers

Question:	An you use extension cord
Answer:	The wattage is 1500w, you should be able to use any extension cord you would use with a 1500w hair dryer. Because you will be using it for a much longer period of time than a hair dryer you may want to consider an extension cord of 14 gauge run the unit with full power for 15+ minutes and see if the cord gets hot. If it does go to a 12 gauge cord. Remember it uses very little power when used with the flame and sound, it uses the 1500 when you turn on the heat portion.
Question:	How many btu's is it
Answer:	I’m not sure about BTU’s but it is 120VAC, 12.5 Amps and 1500 Watts
Question:	Can it be used free standing if you don’t have a fireplace
Answer:	I wouldn't try it. It needs to be on a VERY SAFE spot for the heater. Away from drapes, furniture, etc.
Question:	What is the difference between this unit and the duraflame electric dfi030aru with the same specs, aside from the sound
Answer:	Aside from what the other person stated I believe another difference is that this one has heat regulation whereas the other one does not, however, both appear to have regulation of the flames.
