Does it overheat the wall if wall mounted

No but it does get slightly warm on the back so I used the wall spacers at the bottom to keep it from actually touching the wall. They are included with the heater.

The answer is no. The vents on the bottom pull the air through and war it up. If you turn the fan on in the back it will continuously warm up that air. The blue flame is a very good unit,you will be happy.

I have mine mounted to the wall and it seems to be running cooler than most routers I've used in the past. I used an extra nail towards the middle/bottom to offset it from the wall by about an inch. It allows airflow to reach the back vents instead of accumulating heat against the wall.

There are no mounts for it to be put on a wall. I would think something could be rigged up so it could be. The cooling vents are on the back and I bet it would over heat if you decided to do that.

Yes. You can leave the heat off. It still will 'jut' out from the wall because it has a vent system behind.

No. It builds up heat. I was told by my computer man never to leave them on when other computer components are on even if you are not using them.

I have used mine mounted to the wall for over a year now & have had no problems at all! Just make sure you use a strong enough lag bolt when doing so & you will have no problem!

no it does not, the wall does not get hot either. I would say yest you can, however I would check for the discoloration that gas sometimes can leave behind. I could also say the tv would get hotter than the outside, top or bottome of stove.

No, the directions recommend it be 3 feet from anything to decrease the risk of fire and the air flows into the unit from the back, across the heated coils and out the front. I think it would be a huge fire risk to mount it on a wall.

No. I have had this unit for almost two years. It has performed as expected and I have not noticed any excessive heat.

Yes. It did for me. Insulate the wall behind it for even better performance.

It does not seem to overheat. The big negative thing for me though is that it is very loud. I originally bought it for a bedroom and it is ridiculously noisy. Moved it to the living room and now will only use it when the TV is not on because otherwise have to have the TV loud to compete. I always buy Lasko fans and heaters but I will not buy this model again.

Though it doesn't get really hot on the outside when you have it on. I would not suggest it in an enclosed area. Look in the bookletand see what they suggest the distance from the wall. Just enjoy it for what it is. It is a great appliance. Louise

Mine doesn't overheat but it doesn't completely charge the batteries. I quit using it and bought 2 more of the type of chargers that come with tools.

My wife and I use ours daily and lobe it. Regarding your question, I would check with a reputable shop that sells electrical supplies. You want to make sure that anything between the unit and wall outlet will handle the electrical load without overheating.

Yes, I have mine mounted to the wall. I comes with a holder for the remote that screws into the wall. It works very well. I've had no problems.

It overheated once but it was because I was using a long extension with wire that was to light for the load. I started using a heavier gauge extension and then ran it for 6 hours with no problem. I am a very happy customer. Members of my family have borrowed it and used it without overheating.
