where have you set the thermostat knob, had it at 40(fully counterclockwise) and the thermometer read 36 degrees

I have it at the lowest setting. I heat a small space which has thick 4" foam insulation (my pump house is about 4' x 4' x 4'). The thermometer usually reads about 60° F. A little warmer than I need, but acceptable. The lowest setting is supposed to come on at 35° F. I also have a second heater for back up.

I just have it about in the middle, I have the unit inside a pump box about 4 ft square & 5 foot tall, it is working now for the 2nd year. I am not concerned about the exact temperature, I just keep it more than warm enough to keep it from freezing.

About half way keeps my pump house at 45-50 degrees depending on the temp outside. Sub zero temps keep it a bit cooler inside, so I set it higher when I know the temp will drop low. My pump house is insulated well.

That doesn't sound like it is working properly but it is above freezing. Fully counterclockwise should still keep the area over 40 deg F. I have mine in a small (3' x 5' x 4') pumphouse enclosure for my well pump and filtration and it kept it well above freezing even turned all the way down as you describe. Fully clockwise (all the way up) kept it at 70 deg F or so.

Mine's been running at -8 degrees for a couple of months now. It seems to be quite accurate.

The Temperature alarm set point is 45 degrees F You are suppose to be able to Set it from -66 t0 301 degrees F We left our on Factory 45 degrees

good evening,the set point temperature range is 45F TO 90F which 45f would be the lowest set temp.i hope this helplove the unit work really well.

It sounds like you need to set the thermometer to Fahrenheit instead of Celsius. 98.6 degrees F is equal to 37 degrees C. Unfortunately I don't know how to change the setting.

That's the heat control. Clockwise is hotter. There's no thermostat so you'll have to play with it to get the desired temp b

generally, thermostat set too high ,above180try turning the stat down.hope this helps.

The thermostat has a maximum setting of 100 degrees. I keep mine set around 90 degrees. I have never put a thermometer on it to see how the set temp compares to actual temp. When I first installed the heater it took 3 or 4 days to reach the set temp. This was in the middle of winter and the water temp was probably around 50 degrees when I turned the heater on.

60 degrees, one problem I found the heater does not have a wall thermostat therefore the temperature control is not good.

50°-90°F (10°-32°C) is the thermostat range, with a 1 degree differential. That said, you can't really set the thermostat on a particular temperature, but it doesn't take long to figure out where you want to set it. I have mine marked with a red sharpie so I can remember.

Unfortunately, there is no calibrated thermostat; there are two adjustment knobs, neither with very specific markings. I have mine set on the minimum for both knobs to keep a 100 sf room in the mid 70s when it's already in the mid 60s. I really like it, though; it's not space-greedy and cools down very quickly for storage.

The thermostat is attached to the unit. Unfortunately, the thermostat is of little value since it does not measure the room temperature. You may want to set it at "99" all of the time and turn it down if you are too warm. The T400 thermostat displays the temperature at the end of the temperature probe, and is typically and probably different than the ambient air throughout the room. The numeric reading on the T400 thermostat should be thought of more as a scale. In that, if the thermostat is set at a specific numeric value, and you are still cold, then you should increase the setting up to "99". If you are too warm in the room, then the setting should be decreased accordingly. When the heater is turned on, it will run until the temperature probe reaches a measurement of 72 degrees. Once it is turned on, it first reads 72 degrees, and then after 3 seconds, it will display the temperature at the end of the temperature probe. (And while that reading is accurate, it is typically and probably different than the ambient air throughout the room.)

It should be set the same as the top thermostat. They come set at 120 from the factory which is usually not hot enough for most. Should be around 130-140 degrees.

When I originally put mine back together, I assembled it incorrectly - limiting my hot water. I went back and realigned the gears on the temperature selector so that it would give me the entire range of temps.

It is a low medium high type of deal. I think it will go down to 50 degrees just fine but you'll have to figure out where the thermostat had to be set. With dial set on low ours keeps the temp at about 60 wish. Its not very precise.

I would say 32-150f? Basically just calibrate it at the same temperature you will be using it at. I like this unit a lot.

No problem with it showing but I don't believe it's a correct temp. It always shows much higher than the thermostat and what I believe it could be therefore I don't really go by that.
