When the room temperature is 84 degree, should I leave the heater on or off?

When the room temperature is close to the optimal temperature for bettas (75 to 80F or so) leave the heater off. All it does is add heat to the water so if it is on the tank will get too hot.

Off. Only need the heater if the ambient air temp is less than what you want your tank to be.

I just leave the heater plugged in. I have a gallon tank and it stays at the right temp range of 80 to 85 degrees. I don't think this heater would be good for a smaller tank, it would get too hot. I hope this helped. This heater is great... bought it over a year ago and it's still working.

I bought the Coralife thermostat (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DI4TO/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) so that I know what the water temp is at all times. If the room is warm, though, then you probably don't need the heater.

If I were you, I would leave this one off. Since this heater cannot be adjusted, it will only overheat the water. That's what happened to me. I still blame this heater for the death of my daughter's fish!!!

There is no thermostat, so if the water is warm enough without it then unplug..

I leave my heater on for very long periods of time, all through the night, or if Im not burning wood during the day. Just make sure where you have it plugged into the wall doesnt feel hot, I recently updated many of the wall plugs in my home.

If it is a well insulated room and on a long time. Better to take temp up from 55 to 65.

Don't really know, but since the Heater has it's own thermostat which is attached to the top tube of the freezer's evaperator coil, it probably itself off when the temperature reachs 32 degrees F inside the freezer, My understanding is that the Heater turns on when the timer shuts off the system, in my case, every 8 hours.

From the manual: With the thermostat dial at minimum and the mode selector on MAX, the appliance maintains room temperature atabout 41° F (5°C), preventing freezing with minimal energy consumption

I leave the setting right on 73 and it goes off when room is warm enough.....

It is difficult to determine, the temp on the front of the heater is the desired temp of the room. I set my heater 2 degrees above my heat pump thermostat. The heat pump does not come on. I had trouble with my humidifier unit, called customer service and had a new one in 3 days. I am very satisfied with it. My son bought one too.

If the room temperature is 65, why do you even need the AC onBut for that moment I would set it at 75 to insure it does not get any higher than this

i got a simple small tank heater, in which you can place underneath the thanks. Keep temp at 78

113 degrees is the lowest I could set. The temperature indicator may start at 78, since that is what it indicates the temp is at power on, and I think the room is colder.

Yes, we leave it on all the time! Absolutely no negative issues with this heater! Five star all around!

I think the best thing to do is to call the manufacturer and ask them that question, but I don't think you would need to since the heater can be kept at the desired room temperature by clicking the dial clockwise and stopping when you hear a click sound.

I have an open floor plan with my double wide mobile home and only have one bedroom out of three closed and have the Envi heater pretty much in the middle of the house and set with thermostat on 68 and it keeps my heater from coming on till real late at night.That's with it at 28 to 32 degrees. It radiates heat and heat rises and then it begins to come down. I love mine cause it sure is easy on the electric bill . Hope this old school gal has helped you.

What you need is a thermometer in the area you want to be 40 degrees. A heater itself can't determine that because of other factors in the room.

It really depends on the size of the room. I never leave it on if I'm not home or in the same vicinity as the heater. I will say I do like this unit better than any other I've tried it warms my living room quickly, and I have a very high ceiling. Another big plus is the size, it doesn't use a lot of real estate and can be almost flush with the wall.

Not a full answer: I estimate the maximum temperature at which the unit turns off one the thermostat is set at maximum to be around 80, perhaps 85.
