Why can't it be used in an unheated area, as one person commented?

We live in Wisconsin and it gets real cold here in the winter. We have had our 10 cu ft freezer in the garage for 13 years. Works great and I am guessing that it doesn't run much during the cold spells. Jim

I can't really speak to that particular question, but I am not happy with its performance. It doesn't keep the temperature consistent and half the time it seems like things are actually warmer than when I put them in there.

Yes. You could be risking moisture on electrical components. Temperature controlled environment would be a better way to go.

I don't think a wood product would be a good idea under something that radiates so much heat. At the very least that repeated high heat would at the very least shrink and warp the wood.

Yes. As someone already mentioned, the loss of heat through the exterior wall indicates a serious insulation issue. It can't keep anything hot if the heat is escaping.

this device doesn't product mosture, it's dry heat. this isn't a stream sauna.

For the record, we only use this for its effects so the heating capabilities have been turned to off. Anything further would be speculation on my part.

Sounds like a good idea...? Using it dry may tend to generate a lot of heat and tear it up.

My first response would be yes but always be sure that it doesn't get too warm. The heat may even irritate the area.

Don't know; never tried it because I assumed it was vulnerable to high heat.

It is not intended for outside use although it is rated for humidity 20-80% and thus might be able to be used in a covered porch for example. The strict answer is no though.

Don't see why it couldn't be used - as long as you don't leave it in the upright position when you're not home.

It says to use it in a " covered location" it can be a damp location, but it's rated indoor and outdoor

Way too risky. Would need a thermostat to control temp and if ever exposed to air would burn up instantly. Try a submersible drink warmer maybe.

I would think that it needs to be firmly attached to the object to be heated, otherwise the heat transfer won't occurand it could overheat.

I used it in a crawl space for an outside spigot. But I don't see why it couldn't be used on a hot as well.

I'm not sure unless it had too much moisture to start with or the vent wasn't opened up far enough. I haven't had that problem.
