What is the operating temperature for this unit? Thanks. I live in the N.E. and the last dome unit I had would not move with it got below 34F. I didn't know it went down to -20F in Reno. Just wanted to make sure this one works in cold weather without having to put heat tape around it. What is the operating temperature for this unit? Thanks.

I had some trouble when it was -20F. the heater that comes with the unit is adjustable. It gets very warm/ hot when you turn it all the way hot. The water still freezes over some on the top.

While I can't directly answer the operating temperature range, I can say that I have mine mounted in the dash, and it's weathered a 110 degree summer and below 0 winter. Almost a year in and it's still working like a charm.

I really have not used mine yet. I just got and it has not been cold enough to use. Here is the link to their user manual, it should explain it. http://www.laskoproducts.com/digital-ceramic-tower-heater-with-remote-control-model-5119/

The temp range is maybe 70F-140F degrees on the thermostat ... There is NO an on/off setting.This unit is in my attic and I haven't been up there in a while-- so those temp ranges are just a guess. Thanks!

How many months you got? My experience with this device is unhappy and I am still waiting for the alarm to go off. I trusted this thing and it read 2 degrees below zero all week, come saturday I went shopping and got some frozen food, went to put it in freezer and it was like a sauna in there...been that way all week. I went and checked the readout on the monitor and it still insisted that my freezer was 2 below zero. I junked the freezer and am stuck with the monitor.

Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before. Otherwise it must not be working right. We have our unit in a second house which I know dates back to about 1900, so it is not well insulated nor does it have energy efficient windows. The downstairs is 30' by 25', with four rooms that are all connected, so you can make a circle through the rooms. We have the unit in one room and a large fan in the opposite corner of the house to keep the air moving. We were just there and for 2 days with temps in the high 80's the EdgeStar kept the downstairs at 69-70 degrees. Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before.

The heater control is not intended to bea thermostat that will keep an area temperature no lower than a setting. It keeps the heater no colder than a setting so my heater came on briefly when the temperature was 25F. It didn't significantly heat the area. I would not trust this heater to keep an area from going below freezing, The outsidetemperature plays a major role in the temperature that this or similar heaters heat an area. By experement you could find a setting that would keep an area at 40F but if the outside temp. took a dive the inside temp will also go down but not as much.If you need to freeze protect an area plug your heater into a Farm Innovators TC-3. Find one on Amazon. It kicks on at 35F The heater control is not intended to bea thermostat that will keep an area temperature no lower than a setting.

I bought my heating cable at the beginning of last winter. I has worked fine for me. I used my heating cable inside of a building where it was not exposed to the weather other than low temperatures. I guess the lowest temp. to have been around -10 degrees.

In all honesty I do not know what the wattage is. I know that it comes on at about 36 to 38 degrees and does not get hot, but it does have just the smallest amount of heat to keep plastic, PVC, or copper water pipes from freezing. All it does it keep the pipes above freezing. that's the reason you have to cover the tape with foam wraping, to hold the small amount of resistance heat next to the pipes and not let too much free air get to the tapes. I leave mine on all winter and our electric bill has not risen at all and we've had temperatures in the low teens. Depending on where your from, that many not be much but I really don't care as I don't have to spend the money to dig up frozen pipes to fix them. In all honesty I do not know what the wattage is.

purchased two of these, and either terribly unlucky, or an inferior product. their radiant heaters (ones that mimic old-fashioned radiators with fins) by delonghi are superb, these smaller units broke down within a month or two. had to return both of them, so unable to answer your question about temp range. we've replaced them with a BIONAIRE BCH9214 unit and it's been running like a champ.

It has been my experience with these units, (I have 4 In/Out temp units) that it is best to run them thru the firewall to a point in front of the radiator. (bout 6 inches away from the radiator itself. This allows air to flow across the sensor when you are moving thus giving a realistic outside temp. Of course the temp reading goes up when you are sitting still, but it's still good. The next best option is to run the sensor wire along the dash and down the door post and into the cavity in front of the door. This gives a reasonable temperature indication, but will be erroneous when the vehicle is sitting in the sun, and will not respond a fast as it would in front of the Radiator. Good luck.

I somewhat agree with ChrisMP. This unit can heat a large area (20X20) but not much more than that. I agree that the unit will be on all the time. It does not produce a lot of heat (hot air). It is best used to supplement your house heating system, used at a lower temp. I was using the Enerzen as a primary heater for my finished basement. On cold days (20's or below), this unit could not heat the room above 62 degrees. That's a little to cold for me. Now, on very cold days, I use the Enerzen to supplement a Vornado ATH1 that I purchased. The basement gets quite toasty. I hope this helps. I somewhat agree with ChrisMP.

at room temp 20-22C runs warm to touch but not hot... avoid boxing it in and hot conditions, running nonstop may reduce lifespan...i try not to run it nonstop but if i do it just runs warm and i keep it suspended

The remote control goes down to 59, however the most comfortable setting is around 68. Depending on the size of the space cooling is no problem. One of my units handles 800 square feet like nothing. We find ourselves cold on the hottest day. For us the units work great. Right now we have -1 degree and its still cranking out heat unbelievable. I hope this helps!

I don't know nothing about the LV area, is the temps going below 50 at anytime? otherwise I have to agree with the other 2 comments posted 9 nov 14 about this question,, sorry I couldn't be of more help
