    Why is there no power to my Dyno-Glo Garage Heater?

    Hi, I have a new Dyno-Glo Garage Heater that I connected to the breaker, and it won't turn on. Multimeter reads 120V going at each node in the heater. Breaker is a double-pole 30 Amp Stab-Lok, rated for 240V. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot further, and I'm hoping for some direction, please.
