Does this have an internal thermostat to turn the heater off when "its warm"? If so, what is the turn off temperature?

Adding one comment to the earlier answer. If your water level gets low (this is a fairly tall heater so you should never go below about 6" of water) and the outside temp is low, there is no safety turnoff. So if it's 30 out and the livestock drink the tank down to a couple inches of water, the heater will glow red until you add water. Not a problem with the product since it can't tell if it is surrounded by cold water or air, just a tip to keep the water at a minimum depth so you don't waste power.

I had to ask the manufacturer the same question and the reply was "yes, on at 32* and off at approximately 45*" It is interesting that in none of their literature is this mentioned. I'd think that might be something a potential buyer might like to know. I have not verified the temperature range but this is what I was told by the manufacturer. So far however the heater is doing it's job very nicely.

What if I want it to heat the water to 125 F? Is there any way to adjust the shutoff temperature?

I'm not sure about the 45* temp turn off, I checked it because the temp was in the 40's and I thought it automatically turned off above 32* and it was still on. I will just unplug it when it's above freezing.

It does have an internal thermostat but I don't know what the turn on/off temperatures are.

Not sure. I haven't used that feature. But I'm guessing it is used to set when the heater need to turn off not on. I'll let you know on my next post

Yes, the unit has an on/off switch. It does not have thermostatic control. Nice air flow

If you set it to 73, it should turn off when the ambient temperature is 75. The temperature you see on the display when you're not adjusting it is supposed to be the room temperature. I do know from personal experience that this heater has a lot of problems and is not one that I would buy again.

The thermostat is just a dial...high to low. I just set it to the lowest setting. According to the specs, the lowest setting has the heater coming on at 35 degrees.

This model doesn't and I doubt any of them do. The digital thermostat can be set to the temperature you wish, but it is not programmable. It has a high setting to get a room warm fast, a middle setting to maintain temperature and a low setting that doesn't let the room drop below 68 degrees. Use the high setting to get up to temperature and then leave it on the low setting (which costs next to nothing to run) all day or all night. When you come into the room, if it's not warm enough, you get go up to the middle setting to whatever you like. Run this way, you can maintain a good temperature all the time without spending much for power. I don't live in a cold climate, but while it was dropping down into the low 40s at night, I would run the heater as I describe with no problem. I can't vouch for really cold areas, however.

This heater has a thermostat built in that you can adjust to your desired temp. once turned on it will turn on if needed and not run when not needed. It also has a built in auto-shut off in the unit gets too hot, fire prevention device. Works and heats very well.

I believe there is an internal one but I'm not sure. It has one button for just the flames and another to turn the heater on. There is no adjustment for temperature but it is a comfortable one. H&M; vacuum in Spokane WA sells them. I bet he could answer your question.

There is not a temperature that shows on the heater. When it feels to warm I just turn mine down. I have been very satisfied with that. It works well and does not cost a lot to use.

There is no "off" setting. The lowest temperature setting is 40°. It will turn off when the power to the furnace is turned off.

No, the heater does not turn off once the room reaches the designated temperature. I'm happy to hear your heater works. My heater stopped working.

I have not. But, when this heater reaches the desired temperature as set on the control knob, the heating element shuts off while the fan continues until the elements actually cool down. Adding an external timer or thermostat would remove all power to the unit and defeat the units cool down process.

When you say "off setting" There is a switch in the mounting bracket of the unit. You will have to remove the front assy to access it. You can also lower the temperature and leave the unit on "Hold". And the heat will not come on.

It's not really specific. We have a thermometer in the room so we allow the room to get to 68 degrees and then turn the heater off so it knows to keep it about that temp, but the heater doesn't actually have a visible thermometer/thermostat on it. Hope this helps.

It does have a thermostat, so it will turn off when the air around the unit reaches the set temperature, but, it will continue to run and blow heat as long as it needs until it reaches the temperature you set it to. This unit was a workhorse when I first got it, its only now that I've had a problem.

No, neither. It does have a dial that is considered a "thermostat". You can't set an actual temperature, but you can set it to come on as often you want based on the temp in the room.

The dial on my unit spans -10 degrees F ~ 100 degrees F. I use it in an non-insulated 24 x 24 garage set at approximately 60 degrees F, I believe the thermostat uses a 10 degree window. If set at 60 degrees F, the heater turns on around 55 degrees F and turns off around 65 degrees F.
