I have this but don't use it anymore. Is it possible to use this as a space heater by disconnecting the water and installing fans to drive air thru it

I don't think that will be very efficient. You'll spend more money on electricity for the fan than you would an oil filled radiator.

I don't know why you would want to do that. This thing runs very cool without any additional cooling other than a fan.

Pamela, I see you got several answers. I cannot say specifically yes/no without looking up this model.As it was, I ended up changing out my hot water heater to a different brand.Are you looking for a replacement fan motor assy? Cause I still have my original, it is used, so I could offer it to you appropriately.Let me know.

I would not use this for what you have in mind, it would over heat you need to find one that has a large heat sink with a fan.

You could, but the heating element does not heat up the water very hot (in my experience).

Yes, you can, and by the way, it's a very powerful but still silent fan, the heater has it's own fan and only operates with the heater on. My unit does not have a light but it is available also.

Yes you can. Search youtube for Ocean Wonders Aquarium Low Water Fix. Its a couple screws to take it apart then letting the pump suck up water.

It would be dangerous to use as a heater. Better off just buying a heater if that's what you need. Mine is still in the box. I t wasn't what I expecter and I couldn't assemble it.

I believe the tank is too small for this purpose. I have one located in my garage just for washing hands etc. and the hot water doesn't seem to last that long.

I haven't used it for that purpose - just for cooling down rooms once it starts to cool down outside. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Yes you can, I've used water and the heater,runit for 2 cycles and they come out great.

Joe, you can do it, but it will reduce the volume of air that it is pulling through. By reducing it may cause problems with the fan in the future.

There is a double wall on this heater. I was thinking like you where this is concerned. I had an older heater of this type that i could leave a pot of water on. The top of this one is only warm.

Yes, it can, but like any water heater, you will need to route the water somewhere. I disconnect mine and remove it from the wall and drain outside, as I take mine out in the winter months as it is in an unheated area. It is very easy to do this.

No ... its not big enough for that. Or cost effective either for that. You would be better off with some kind of large heat heater that blows so you don't have to clean

I don't think you can. Well you can but it will probably over heat. I would attach a fan to cool the ESC.

I'm sorry but I'm not an HVAC guy and really couldn't offer any technical advice. I only know of the application in my system which is to drain water that's been removed from the air- dehumidified. Sorry I can't be of any assistance.
