How long is the electrical cord? Do you use an extension cord? We would use the unit in our garage, not sure if heater cord will be long enough.

The cord isn't too long, if used in a garage you might need an extension cord. I would say about 7 feet long (estimate).

The box says it is 5 1/2 feet. I have some of mine plugged into a power bar.

The cord is maybe 3-4 ft long.Typically not long enough for most situations. I use a heavy duty ext cord designed for use outdoors. Plugs into an ext. outlet. I LOVE my bunny's heating pad! She wouldn't have made it thru last winter without it and nor thru this current cold weather either. It is an excellent product.

Looks like the cord is 6 ft. long. We do not use an extension cord with it. We put this in a box section of out cat tree. Our cats love it!

I use a 100 ft extension cord, no problems with over heating. The cord I use, would be considered heavy duty, but not the most expensive brand. Use something that you could run a circular saw or similar type of products.

I don't see why not if it's a utility grade extension cord. The cord that comes with the unit is pretty long. You may not even have to use an extension. I have used both an outdoor plug and one in our garage. I really do like this little machine. I even used it to blast the paint off our 500 gallon propane tank to prep it for repainting. Don't be fooled by it's size. It packs a punch. Good luck!

Not very long maybe 3 feet. If you use an extension cord make sure its is rated for appliance use.

I plugged the unit into an outdoor grounded/ground fault outlet and ran an extension cord to our outdoor lights --- I don't see why you could not plug it into an extension cord as long as it is a grounded cord. But this would expose the unit to the timer to the elements

I gave that to a friend to use and told her I might borrow. I called her and she has no idea how long but says she does use an extension cord when she uses. Didn't offer to go measure :))

The cord comes out of the left side and it seems only to be approx 4 feet long. I will have to get an extension for mine. But I must tell you that it is a great heater! Ask them to ship it with extra packing. Mine did come with a few bends.

I live on the first floor apt. building and I plugged it in my wall socket in the livingroom and fed it outside to grill. I had more cord than I actually needed...it was great but if you are a distance from your plug, then I would suggest a grounded extension cord.

This unit is operated with an extension cord. You would need to supply the cord yourself.

If you do not use an extension cord, keep away from flamibles I would say it should be safe. I use mine in a travel trailer without any problems. Best heater I have ever owned , nothing gets hot anywhere around heater.

About 4ft, I believe, but I have not measured it because it is long enough for most setups. Do not use an extension cord as the unit draws too many amps and the cords/plugs get too hot. I had to create a cord using 12/3 heavy electric cable with a heavy plug on one end and an outlet box on the other end for safe operation. I bought the cable and ends at the local home improvement store. The cable is sold by the foot, so you can make the length you need.

As long as it's rated for 110v it should be fine. (most are). It comes with a 5' cord, so I haven't found a need to use an extension myself.This unit can heat our workshop 100 square feet with a concrete floor, in about 2 hours in freezing temps.

The cord that comes with the unit is about 6 feet long. The unit also comes with a short, maybe 1 foot adapter cord for using a 110V outlet. Making an extension is pretty straight forward and you can get the parts at a Lowes or Home Depot. If you are uncomfortable with this find an electrician friend.

Fairly short. About 3 feet. We used an extension cord but we loved the heater. Worked great.

The cord is 2 1/2 feet long. This heater will need a larger object placed on top to keep it in position if you place it submerged in a bird bath, such as laying a brick or rock on top. An outdoor extension cord will be needed to make up the distance for how short the supplied cord is.

The heater plugs in but the cord is short. The directions say to avoid extension cords so if you don't have a receptacle under the cabinet you might need to add one. If you use an extension cord make sure it is rated for heavy duty appliances.

The unit blows out approx. 1 foot, however it did heat entire home. We did have a incident with the unit just this week. We have had the unit for two winters, and just this week the blower went out, forcing the electricity to go out and flip a breaker. When this happen sparks we're spitting out, so potentially a dangerous situation.
