Is this opener meant to use in areas where temperatures can drop below freezing? Ex: night low 15 F, day high 50 F Thanks

Yes, the cylinder closes well before deep freezing and opens again with no problem.

The description does not say that. I think if you live under climate where the temperature do not drop under the freezing temperature it will work.

It is perfect for that use...there is no setting that refelects the temp (it is a low, med, high, type) but the lowest setting seems to keep our spare/seperate from house bedroom in Colorado nice and toasty when used, and "not freezing" when not used....just set it and forget it. Unit MUST be installed by electrician....it has no wires included.

I live in az... So cold weather for us is 35f.... It does state in the manual not to operate below about 30ishF (I remember reading it).... As far as tripping breakers: it works fine on a 15A 110v circuit witha stereo plugged in as well.... So maybe it pulls 10A peak when it starts at most... Hope this helps...

I think you would be OK. I keep mine in the garage and the temperature there is often in the low thirties but doe not freeze. I use to power my snow blower and it works great, never get hard or become difficult to wind up after use. You could probably ask the manufacturer and see what they say.

It will go well below 40 degrees, in fact, I had set at at the coldest setting and the cans were freezing and bursting openSo I backed it off to about 3/4 of the way and they were still freezing, it does a good job of keeping things cold

I have used it below 50 and it was fine - below 30 would be freezing - so no for that

works fine with the gate opener. I dont get very cold but it works fine in the twenties

It can not be used outside where temps go below freezing. However, it can be used inside as in a basement.

I don't recall reading any prohibition about cold weather. I keep mine in an unheated shop and pulled it out the other day when it was well below freezing. It worked like a champ.

I don't think so. My door can only open 90 degrees. I think it can operates door to 120 degrees at most

The lowest is about 35 degrees. Just enough to keep things from freezing in the shop. It depends on the amount of space you have, and how well insulated it is. I am heating the equivalent of a one car garage and it is not well insulated. This heater would work better in a insulated garage.

I live in South Florida so freezing isn't an issue. I do not know if it will freeze. It is a fantastic product, works beautifully

If you live in a warm weather climate you can leave this outside. With the temperature changes we have had recently I would hesitate to leave it outside in case of freezing. This is a remarkable little unit and the only drawback is the cheap handheld sprayer they give you. I went out and purchased a new sprayer and this unit works great.

I used mine at an indoor range at 25 yds. Don't see why it wouldn't handle colder weather. Think my fingers would freeze before this thing. You might have problems seeing the red dot on a sunny day the farther you go out. It's a cheap enough product to give it a try.

I've never had this happen, and I've used it at temperatures below zero. But, I suppose it depends. If you're using it in the Arctic or Antarctic, then it probably would freeze some what. I bet if you're not out too long it would work at temperatures around -10C to -15C for a long time. Colder than that, and it might begin to freeze over a bit. I would check out the manufacturer's specifications and make sure that whatever temperature you plan to use it in is within the spec range.

I guess it depends on how you define 'cold weather', we have two units that were placed outside from the beginning by our installer and no problem to date, we are in south central Texas. 'hope that helps you, good product
