Small size, good control.

Impressed by the small size. The air velocity easily hits the opposite side of my 22 foot space and circulates back making the air temperature more even. Quieter than I expected. Smaller fan sizes generally have to generate more noise to do the job of a larger fan. Some non-electricians may think they can install but are confused by the one black, one white, and one yellow/green striped wire inside. You may think that white is neutral and connect it to a 120V source (you can also use a 2-wire #10 sheathed wire with ground terminated with a black, white, and bare wire for 240 VAC, 1-phase load is supplied. ) Some 240VAC appliances like this one are equipped with black, white grounding. They use both black and white for heating. If you connect this heater, or any other 1/2 voltage heater, you will get 1/4 heat since the wattage is proportional to the square of the voltage. So 1/2 squared is 1/4. Also with this heater the fan can also be 240v or run on 120v but you must get the manufacturer's approval. It's a heating element, and any heating element that isn't working properly can burn everything down. The thermostat on its lowest setting keeps the room at around 40 degrees Fahrenheit and outside at 30 degrees. My shop is 230 square meters. On my heater, the thermostat won't turn off the heater. If the switch powering this heater has a switching capacity rating, you should have no problem turning the heater off at the panel when needed. Of course, the in-line thermostat on your store's wall is usually set to "off," and that might work better. In this case, set the thermostat on the heater block to high and let Line Stat take over.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
