Sorry, that would be better answered by CTeck Support, there are temp and ventilation concerns for the areas where you charge the batteries. So honestly I am not sure.

Yes. From the manual; "Ambient temperature -4 to +122F (-20 to +50C), output power is reduced automatically at high temperatures"

Theoretically, my answer would be "yes" if the unit is kept on the ground and away from the car. You'd possibly want the extension although the amount of extension you get with the product is sufficient for me. At the same time, call CTEK Customer Service to get a "real" answer. You want a practical answer, not a theoretical response.

111 degees in Boise for over a week. No issues with mine in the garage with the heat. 5 months? Time to move.

the unit has a heat source so it doesn't seem to matter the temp of the room (above freezing). I have it in my garage and it is often in the 40 degree range. The unit does put out heat when operating (when removing humidity--if humidity is at or lower than your setting the heat turns off but fan continues to operate). You should be fine. I love this thing. I moved from Eastern WA where humidity is hardly ever above 50%, to Western Wa where it is in the 80-99% most of the time. I am allergic to mildew/molds etc and this unit keeps my home dry and no musty scents. I was prepared to purchase a second one for the upstairs but this dandy unit keeps both floors perfect.

I would say it depends on how harsh your winters get. If much below freezing, to be on the safe side, I don't think I would. I live in Minneapolis where it can get down below zero so I have kept mine in a heated garage over winter.

Not long. You want the temperature change to be slow anyways so it wont chock the system

Yes you can just put the system on just heat or just air.. Hope this helps =)

My shop is in my unseated garage. It doesn't get below 40* The humidity is lower when it's cold so the unit runs a lot less than in the spring and summer, but it functions fine. Of course, if you mean below freezing when you say low temperatures, it wouldn't work, it would ice up.

I live in Austin, TX and use the product in my Motor Home. It is stored in a lower storage compartment in a plastic tub and I have had no problems in six years. In the summer, the road and ambiant temperature can well exceed 100 degrees.

My unit seems well insulated............placed in the shade of hot Arizona sun. Small cooler will fit inside.Charles Burrows

Muncy I live in Plymouth, Ma. and on a typical weekend in the summer I use 2 gallons per hour for about 5 hrs. to maintain 78 degrees both Sat. and Sun.

It will be less but it sounds like you have a ventilation problem to solve if temps are too high with T5s in such a small space.

This is easy. Do nothing. Just leave it in a general area to acclimate. I live in Phoenix and received the thermometer in the summer, so I just left in the air conditioned house for about 15 minutes.

We have it a few months and are quite satisfied. We live in AZ and our a/c is on 24/7 now.

yes with all factors involved at absolute constant. this means desired temp already achieved..etc. the numnerrd may be maniipulated so as not to include costly factors siuch as normal cyclings which includes relative energy vulping restart of the comptessor etc as opposed to a constant running devvice which has already rdached it s desired 5emp with no variance... not even opening door...at all.

I keep mine in an unused bedroom we have turned into a store room. Living in Texas it's not really an option to keep the cooler in the garage, at least not for about 9 months of the year. The air conditioning is usually about 74 degrees in my home and the cooler has little to no effort in keeping an internal temp of 52-55 degrees. Even though the door is supposed to be UV protected I make sure and keep the curtains drawn as to keep sunlight from hitting the door directly.
