Does the motor put off much heat? The only place I can put this will be under the furnace/AC thermostat.

It puts off a small amount of heat .... It comes out from the back of the freezer ....I hope this helps. ...otherwise it has been a good freezer keeps food at below 0 .,,,

The component that shuts off power below temp is inline on one cable, you can unplug it and get continuous power, but i dont know if the motor was designed to run continuously.

Probably not for long as there is no auxiliary heater included, which would be required to maintain the temp, as the heat loss is greater than the motor friction can generate.

I have mine in my milk house, I leave it plugged in all winter. I have never had a problem with it, but never had it around gas or diesel. I would like to add, the outside of the heater has never felt hot.

I don't know for sure, but I doubt it. I do know that the fan motor has an internal thermal switch which makes it shut down if it gets too hot. So my best guess would be that it is not a good choice for that application, unless the motor is well insulated from the high temperatures.

I've only had my fan on about five times; however, I never noticed any heating of the motor.The fan runs quietly and I like the idea of the THREE speeds instead of two.

I have not had any issues with the motor or the heater. Was installed in December 2012. LOVE my ipool!

it should not get very hot or smell hot , make sure it matches old motors specs ie. amp draw ,horsepower, & correct voltage & rotation

I'm not that good of an electrician so I can't truly say, but I can tell you that we love the remote therm. because we can make it control wherever we are. Ours is a small apartment with a loft, so to control just the loft would be cold below and vice-versa, warm on the bottom and really hot upstairs. Hope this helps with your decision, P.S. you can lay the remote anywhwere you want it and call it hardwired, HA, Ha. just kidding.

The key will likely be do you have enough ventilation...It does not include a thermostat, so something with one might be a better idea.It does have a much stronger motor than most permanently mounted fans that I've seen...

I use this in a 2-car garage and it heats relatively well. My garage is not insulated, so the area I work in is warm, and the entire garage gets relatively warmer. I turn it on only when I am working.

I think it has a small fan. i am using it at present and can heard a very quiet motor that is not the hard drive. If I leave it running for some hours it gets comfortably warm.

Make sure you have adequate clearance for air intake, the motor gets hot. Also, very loud, even at low speed - but it does move a lot of air.

Should not be a problem as it is a heating element, not a motor where AC frequency is important. I have used mine a few times without issue since it came last week.

If it does t put out any more than the one I have you won't need a thermostat. I can literally hold my bare hand directly in front of heater. It doesn't put out nearly enough heat!

When my unit stopped putting out the heat, I found that dust was interfering with the circuitry. As I recall, I removed the lower back panel and used a vacuum and/or hair dryer to remove the dust from the wiring and the motor. It's worked fine ever since. Good luck!

Yes it will get hot if you don't have any fans I have the dual integy fan on the motor and it keeps it running good with the 10000 mah
