The 1000 without a temperature that shows on the heater- what do you do? Is there something I'm missing by not seeing a temperature showing?

It won't show a temperature just turn on until room is comfortable or adjust the heat button up or down depending on how the room feels & it will turn on & off automatically.

There is not a temperature that shows on the heater. When it feels to warm I just turn mine down. I have been very satisfied with that. It works well and does not cost a lot to use.

I have not had a problem without a temperature reading. Adjust the heat level up or down for comfort. It works great, and is economical.

There is no numeric temperature setting. After I run it for a while I check the room temperature on the thermostat connected to my furnace. As others have said, you can just work it up and down until you find a comfortable temperature. I've found that each increment corresponds to about a 2 degree difference in room temperature.

It has different levels of heat range you can set. You need to experiment to see what degree you want. We just usually run it on high (most efficient) until our thermometer reads what we want, then shut it off. Cost less than our heat pump forced air unit to run.

Sounds like you have a bad control board. The temp can be set on both the front face of the unit and with the remote control. Take it back and get a new one!!

it must be preset, there is no temperature control. i don't remember temp. playing into it at all.

I never had occasion to check the unit for temperature, and having moved, no longer can do so. I am surprised at a report of heat, especially high heat. I suggest contacting Paradise directly as to a possible defect of this unit.

The LED should turn off when the temperature is reached. Turn the temp all the way down, then turn it all the way up. Once you pass the temp of the water it will turn the red LED on. Do you have a accurate thermometer to check your water? If it is at 85 then the unit is working. If not then you might have to return it since the calibration is off. Mine is set to 80 and it work very well.

My unit has not over heated. If its really hot, I would think it is a defective unit.

I have no idea what the temperature is. It gets pretty hot and I think that's what happened to mine. I am guessing that it overheated and the motor burnt out??? No other reason for it to have stopped working after a few months and under 10 usages. Maybe someone else actually clocked the temp.

DittoI tried to put a heater in and found the same problem - if anyone knows how I'd appreciate info too. Thank you!

The current temp should always be displayed. Mine sometimes goes blank and shuts the furnace off. I believe it to be caused by poor solder joints at the connector. I have not attempted to repair it yet.

Did you try and replace the heating element with the spare one that comes with the set? At 217 degrees, that's not even close to melting solder. I know my station has to be set about 100 degrees higher than where I normally would set it, which tells me that the thermostat isn't very accurate, but other than that I've used mine to build hundreds of circuit boards at home and actually prefer my solder station over the ones I use at work. If the 2nd heating element doesn't work, I would contact the seller.

Yea happened to me too. I emailed them and they sent me a replacement part. I was told not to max out the heat temp. So I kept it less then a 100 deg. C from the max temp after I replaced the thermol . They did not charge me for the part either. So basically if I were you and if you have time to return it for a full refund and buy another one and keep it 100 c under the max temp you should be fine. You could email them and see if they will give you the replacement part but it was a little hard changing the part. But it can be done. It's been working fine ever since.

I haven't checked mine, but it's nowhere close to 140-150F; it's more in the 200F Range. Something is definitely wrong with your Machine. Did you descale it regularly? Maybe that's something to look at.

did you turn up the dial to maximum heating temp?.sometimes it gets turned down by error. IF it is all the way up...check the electric going to the heater...(that it is on) IF good..they it burned out....get a new one...

Is it possible you did a temperature over ride by accident? That will trump the scheduled temperature and make the furnace run until the rooms temperature adjusts, or until the next scheduled temperature takes effect. The only thing other than that I can think of is maybe the wiring is wrong?

Because there may be many times when you don't need 10,000 W to do the job. Whenever the 10,000 W heater is running that's what it is using. If 5000 W will take the chill out you're using half the energy.

The temperature and other writing only show up when the unit is first turned on or if the settings are changed while the unit is on. After a few seconds (5 maybe) this goes away so you don't have to see it.

You're asking a lot out of that little heater. It's a general rule that heaters can only raise the water temp 10 degrees above the room temp. You're at the very edge of the threshold, so I'm not surprised it's taking a while. Give it time.
