I've had mine since May and really like it. I don't know about an energy star rating on this model. It has a remote that you can set at the temp you want and it will maintain that temp. Not sure if that's what you're asking. I have an indoor thermometer and the air conditioner keeps the temp within 1 degree (up or down) of my setting.

Does have the energy star rating emblem on control panel. Don't know anything more on that. Ours is used on enclosed patio and is set at 70 during the day. Has remote. It seems to maintain that temp and is accurate.

yes the unit has the energy star emblem on the front and does have a remote that you can keep anywhere in the room.

I cannot find anything for an energy star claim. the main thing is to use it on a system that does not have aux heat if you are using a heat pump. it is apparently NOT a fully smart system.

I don't see an Energy Star label on the carton or in the manual,but rated power consumption is only 60 watts.

Works as a replacement to my Sanyo RCS-KS09 remote and allows me to turn the Split AC unit on/off and set temperature, fan speed, mode. BUT my unit requires a temperature sensor in the remote to sense the room temperature and send a signal to the AC unit to turn it off when the desired temperature is reached. The HQRP A/C Remote Control does not have an internal sensor, and so the A/C stays on forever until you manually turn it of. Newer units have the temperature sensor built into the AC unit itself, so it's not a problem for them. If you set it at night in your bedroom, you wake up to a freezing cold room in the morning, and ultimately, a more expensive electric bill.

High Tech Man, if I can find the manual I will check to see if it provides degree ratings but my recollection is that it does not. Neither the remote control nor the unit itself provides degree indicators, just lights signifying low, medium, high. While I have no way of knowing the temperature setting, I can tell you that the lowest setting is pretty low. Sorry I couldn't be of more use.

I guess they mean that you can control all the functions of the unit from the remote? But this unit does not have a remote temp. sensor. The newer ones do. but this unit works fine. I have no complaints.

The Answer is Yes - AND - No. I have three separate units plugged in outside right now. Two, in separate locations, function off of one remote, and they are working perfectly. One is outside, the other is in an unheated metal building about 80+ feet away. Both turn on simultaneously using the one remote. It is 10 degrees out right now, at night.The third unit functions off a second remote (i.e. different frequency) and as approximately 45 to 50 ft. further than the metal building and from where I am, in my home. It will not turn on right now. It operates perfectly when it is at least 20 degrees or warmer. The deeper cold seems to affect range. The other two units turn on and off fine. Hope that helps.

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.

Yes. Its got a big Energy Star Sticker and I've noticed a decrease in my electrical bill in the 9 months its been operational.

they are controlled by an internal t-stat and only shut off once they reach the temp you set. But 900 sq ft heated to 105 might be stretching a single too far. I would suggest two units.

It is a comfort heater. I live in a small apartment and it it will keep up as long as the temperatures don't fall below 30 degrees. It does not heat the carpet. The narrow outlet towards the top of the unit blows forced air over some sort of heating element. It is quite powerful, but not the same as a built in appliance. You can touch the unit anywhere and it will not burn you. It is very safe for children pets. It is a 1500 watt unit. multiply 1500 x hours x your rate in kilowatts/hour and you get the cost of operation.

sorry, I cannot see a temperature scale on it. however, if you really only want to use enough electricity to prevent freezing, this unit is not appropriate because it will be on much more than the minimum to do what you need. Suggest you look at greenhouse thermostat, which will control a heater to come on at any temperature down to freezing, and costs about $35 on eBay. It will control up to 10 Amps, which will be a heater of about 1200 Watts, more than you will need to prevent freezing. What do you do when the power goes off, or does it not? My solution would be to use a heat pipe to bring heat up from the earth below. You can make one with a length of copper pipe.

The operating temperature for that unit is 34-114 degrees. Anything more or less will affect the performance of the unit.

My unit is behaving exactly as what you (and the user manual) describe. I set the thermostat temp to a comfortable 68 degrees. The unit heats up to +4, which is 72 degrees, and then it shuts off. That's great. However, as soon as my room temperature drops to 71 degrees, which is about 2 minutes later, the unit kicks back on in LOW mode. This is WAY too sensitive. When the room temperature reaches 72 degrees again, which is about 30 seconds later, the unit shuts off again. The unit cycles between 71 and 72 degrees, and therefore, turns on and off continuously every couple of minutes or so. Mind you, neither 71 nor 72 is my desired temperature. The constant clicking on/off makes this feature unusable. It is quite ironic that this feature is called Save Smart. It should be renamed "Waste Dumb" in my opinion.

I found I had to set the temperature a few degrees higher for it to come on. I believe this is because the sensor/antenna is close to the wall. I am trying to remember how the programming works. I just have mine set at 72 round the clock. I will check when back home. But I love this unit! Nice steady heat and electric bill did not go up.
