I understand the thermostat is numbered from 1-5. Does the heater stops when reached a certain temperature when thermostat is set on low like 1 or 2?

Yes it does, you must make sure there is plenty of circulation in the room or it stops altogether.

Since I'm not home right now I will answer from memory. There are four temperature settings from which to select (I believe they are 70, 75, 80, 85 degrees) with green light to indicate when that temperature has been reached. At that point it will shut down like any heater with a thermostat. When the quick heat setting is used it will continue to run and put out heat even after it has reached 85 degrees setting.

No, all 5 come on at the same time. The thermostat will cut them all of when it reaches temperature. I'd recommend the optional blower - it's on/off/auto. The blower really pushes the heat out into the room. I use it in my shed workshop.

Probably your heaters have their own thermostats that cause the temperature cycling. I installed RLV4305 on a regular baseboard heater and there is no cycling on and off but the thermostat gradually reduces power as the set temperature is reached. And the same thing happens when room temperature drops below the set point. The thermostat gradually increases the power until the full power is reached if necessary. So the control is very gradual and completely silent.

Must be something wrong with your heater. When I set the heater temperature to 71 degrees the heater will stay on until reaching 73 degrees (don't know why). Once it drops to 70 degrees then the heater should come back on. The heater will tell you whatever the temp is in the room. When it's extremely cold the heater can't heat some rooms. Hope this helps.

I use this heater to heat my 650sqft 3 car garage. The thermostat setting are pilot light and then settings 1 to 5. You can lower the temp below the 1 setting by continuing to turn it down close to the pilot position, like it would be a .5 setting. This setting will keep my garage at 45 degrees. When I want to work in the garage postion 3 will keep it at 70 degrees. I have been very satisfied with this heater. Some people don't understand how this heater works with the thermostat feature. It is either all five heat elements on or all off. Only the manual heat control models turns the elements on indivdually. I use this heater to heat my 650sqft 3 car garage.

When you install it you also install a thermostat that has a sensor that goes under the tiles with the heater. You set the desired temperature and it will shut off when the temp is reached. I like the Honeywell with the timer so that it automatically comes on off when I want it to.

You can only set the temperature in 5 degree increments starting at 60 degrees, then 65, 70, 75, 80, 85 and MAX, whatever that is. It is preset to only allow you to choose those numbers. You can't set it for 63 degrees or 71 degrees or something like that. I don't understand these other responses because they don't really answer the question. I have owned the heater for 2 years so I know....

Stacie, I cannot say what the bottom shut-off is, but I can tell you that if I set it at #1 (and the thermostat functions a little below #1) the heater will shut of with the temperature in the low 60's. I have to bring it between 2 & 3 to get the area to the 68-70 degree range.

Not sure if this is what you mean but it can be set for high or low. Both of these settings can be set in increments of 5 degrees. I am at work but I believe it goes up to 80 degrees. When it reaches that setting it goes off. Really nice little heater.

I have mine set to 1 as well for that same purpose. Mine does turn on and off and has never went on once the tempature has reached its setting. I am in NY so its a basement unit and stays around the 40-50 degree range. there may be a probem with the unit. I would reach out to customer service.

"Temperature sensing mechanical thermostat" This holds the temp within a few degrees of where you set it. If the heater is "on" the pilot lite is always running. When the heater is turned off all gas flow is shut off. Restart of the heater requires override of the safety shutoff to get the pilot light lit and up to temp. (Just like a gas water heater)

The thermostat know has 10 indicated settings plus the on and off settings. The instruction manual says the following: Set the thermostat knob by turning clockwise to where you want it and allow the heater to warm up the room. When the desired comfort level is reached, lower the thermostat slowly until you hear the unit click off. Heater will now automatically maintain the desired comfort level. I paraphrased a little bit. In other words, once the desired temp. has been reached the heater cycles on and off. Works fine. There are no specific numbers on the heater knob. You just have to find what's comfortable for you.

My problem is If turn OFF the light is turn OFF, but heater is still ON, If you turn ON the heater the light is ON but heater is not ON not heating, sometimes when its ON and Its heating the thermostat numbers moves backward, from 90,85,80,75,and my room temp.showing 90degree Its funny ... I called Mickey Mouse Honeywell Heater, Ha,Ha,Ha, My Heater is just 2 months old, My Heater too make metal bending noise, I have to plug and unplug my heater every time from the wall socket to turn On and turn OFF ...to me Its a dangerous heater !!

Either the thermostat is set to low or it may be defective. Also the heater needs some outside air or it will shut off. Good Luck!!

Not sure if this is what you mean, but it has a thermostat and if its set at 70 it shuts off at 70. If the room cools below 70, it cuts on again...

I have not had an issue with the heater stopping and starting like that. More often than not, due to the rooms it is used in, it does not shut off (hit the temperture) though that is the room and not the heater. On the rooms where it stopped, I did not have that issue.
