Check the base for a tip over safety switch. It needs to be pressed in. Can't find a manual for it as it appears to be an Amazon, Walmart special. Try it in another outlet, or put something else in that outlet that is known to work like your cellphone charger.

SOURCE: I have a Patton Heater ( Brand New ) that was

One thing that I would do is to remove the back cover and make sure there are not any obstructions by fan motor or contacts for heating elements. Don't know where you are located but around here we have a real problem with mud dauber wasps getting in almost anywhere. I have had several power tools fail to work and upon disassembly have found nests. Thank you

Have a patton space heater. Light is on when plugged in but will not start. Can you tell me how to fix?

If the light on your Patton space heater is on, but the heater will not start, there are a few things you can try to fix the issue:
  1. Check the power source: Make sure the heater is plugged into a working outlet and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped.
  2. Check the thermostat: Make sure the thermostat is set to a temperature higher than the current room temperature. If the thermostat is set too low, the heater will not turn on.
  3. Check the safety features: Some space heaters have safety features, such as a tip-over switch or overheating protection, that will shut off the heater if it is not positioned properly or if it gets too hot. Check to make sure the heater is positioned correctly and not too close to anything that could cause it to overheat.
  4. Clean the heater: Over time, dust and debris can accumulate in the heater, which can cause it to malfunction. Unplug the heater and clean it thoroughly, making sure to remove any debris from the heating element.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, there may be a problem with the heater's internal components. In that case, it is best to contact the manufacturer or a qualified repair technician for further assistance.

Comes on then goes off (stay on for a few sec.)

Your Patton Heater may be on the Voluntary Safety Recall List. For more info call Patton Electric Co. toll- free at (800) 528-6050. You will need your Model # and Serial # before calling.

I have a Patton Heater ( Brand New ) that was given to me. when I plug the heater in it lights up but the heater or fan does not come on. This heater has never been used. What could be causeing this?

Try spraying a LITTLE WD-40 on the fan bearings, with the heater unplugged, of course. You may have to remove the case to get access. Before you spray, try to spin the fan with your finger. Spray then try again with the finger. I think this will do it. If you don't have WD-40 ... try sewing machine or other light house hold oil.

Thanks for visiting today.

I purchased a Patton heater PUH9000 in March 2006. I never opened the box until the other day 1/15/2011 when my blower moter on my furance stopped working. I unpacked the heater and pluged it in........

If it is the same as mine it takes a minute or two to start after you plug it in...this is a safety thing,in case it tips over...if it is tilted to much it will shut off...but will sart back up in a few minutes...

This heater was the determined cause of my total loss house fire. I thought the company would atleast help me find some where else to live, they seem to care. But, as of lately they are doing nothing.
I am told this heater-(prh11- 2008 model- purchased at walmart for about $27.00)
- Had wiring that wasn't up to standards
-1/10,000 units cause fires
-something wrong with the heating element-stops working
- wouldn't stand level
-heating coils
-fires like mine have happened to a few other people
This came directly from a person at Jarden corporation(aka patton-sunbeam)
