Unfolded, the ZappBug Heater measures 23 inches-by-37.5inches-by-23 inches. It is the perfect size to heat treat shoes, books, papers, clothes, electronics, and other items. It is also an excellent choice for a business or nonprofit to exterminate pests from bags, backpacks, files, cushions, and other items where bed bugs and other insects may hide. Because our chambers utilize convection, it is unnecessary to bag or box awkwardly sized items before treatment. Peace of mind Bed bugs have an uncanny ability to adapt to even the newest and most advanced chemical treatments. Heat above 113℉ is one of the few tools that is consistently effective. ZappBug’s programable heaters and wireless thermometer allow you to be certain that items were heated to the appropriate temperature for the desired amount of time. What's in the box? Manual Support Blocks (2) Support Net Thermal Unit Fabric Shell and Carry Bag Features The ZappBug Heater is a reliable way to kill bed bugs in all life-cycle stages – eggs, nymphs, and adults using only heat. Kills bed bugs and other pests in all life stages, including eggs, nymphs, and adults. Heat-only treatment solution Easy to use: Set up, load with items and switch on. Convenient size: Measures 23 inches-by-37.5 inches-by-23 inches. One person setup and folds flat for easy storage. Best Practices Airflow is the key to success. Leave at least 2 inches of space around items for hot air to circulate. All items need to be placed on the included blocks and support net to allow airflow around the bottoms, tops, and sides of items. It is best to place the ZappBug Heater on a carpet, area rug, or blanket during treatment. Hardwood flooring, linoleum, or concrete will absorb heat from the unit during the treatment. Placing the Heater on a carpet, thick blankets, towels, foam pads, or even cardboard will provide the necessary insulation for effective operation during the thermal treatment. It is best to load the ZappBug Heater more often with small to medium-sized loads. Large loads take longer periods of time to heat the items and are less efficient. Thermal Units The ZappBug Heater includes one 120-volt, 1500-watt thermal unit, which requires an independent 120-volt circuit to operate. The thermal unit includes an integrated programmable timer. Once the selected time is complete, the unit will shut off. The thermometer and wireless sensor (included) will monitor the temperature inside items within the chamber. The battery-powered wireless probe sends the temperature reading to the thermometer base station. Once a sustained temperature of 120 degrees Fahrenheit is reached, bed bugs will die within minutes. When placing items in the ZappBug Heater, it is essential to allow 6-to-12 inches of space between items inside the chamber and the thermal unit. If the vent is blocked, a hazard light and alarm will indicate the unit is beginning to overheat, and the thermal unit will automatically shut down. If the hazard light is on, remove any items blocking airflow from around the thermal unit and allow 20 minutes to cool before restarting the treatment. Easy Eradication and Prevention The ZappBug Heater will eliminate current infestations or prevent future problems for those exposed to bed bugs. The ZappBug Heater can kill pests quickly, and reliably. The ZappBug Heater can be easily transported and within minutes set up to eradicate bed bugs, moths, carpet beetles, and other pests without hazardous sprays, powders, or other harmful products. The ZappBug Heater is an effective system used by homeless shelters, nursing homes, hospitals, and thrift stores to keep bed bug threats at bay and prevent re-infestations. Travelers can quickly heat-treat, luggage, clothing, and other items, and rest assured that unwanted pests will not follow them home.
