Is it designed to be run intermittently or continuously?

This is a small pump designed to be dropped into water jugs or some other source to transfer water from one place to another. We have used ours successfully for water transfer into our trailer when dry camping. connect it and it runs, it does not have a pressure switch like the pump in a trailer so I can't see how you would use it in a continuous mode. but you could try it and see if it would burn out or just fail in a short time. PS as time has passed it seems to need a bit of help getting going, as it is not a self priming unit any more.

Manufacturer inform that can be run continuously but always entering water to the pump (if NOT the pump suffer or be susceptible to damage). My particular opinion,must be run intermittenly.

Yes it will run continuously if it plugs in.But it usually have a switch on the wall to control on and off!

Yep! Once it reaches the temp you set it for it goes into a standby mode, it doesn't run constantly.

Yeah, had it have issues if I have had it running continuously. I just reboot the computer and it works fine.

Personally, I've only run the unit for 24 hours straight. I cannot comment on 'several days' but I believe that it should also be fine. Also, you should note that the settings can be configured for it to turn itself on and off AUTOMATICALLY. This means that, there is no need for the unit to run CONTINUOUSLY, for several days.

I run the unit 24/7. That is what is recommended in the owners manual. The unit has a very low power consumption and I would like to get the maximum benefit possible. It is small and therefore portable,so it can be rotated room to room.

It runs for the amount of time you set it to run & then cuts off. It does not cycle.

It isn`t off it`s set that way. It`s that way so it won`t constantly be running. You can adjust it if you wish.

I take that to mean that it isn't designed to run for days on end. I've run it for ~20 hrs straight, no problem.

I have not found out a way to make it run continuously. It stops every 30 minutes.

Non-stop and as needed are opposites. I had a filter that was meant to run 24 hrs. without stopping. So I wonder if it matters if this filter runs 24 hours a day or intermittently for optimal performance. Could you answer again, please? And thx.

It is not made to run continuously in my opinion. That's why I have had to purchase this one. It is made just to run as an exhaust fan for a bathroom.

The fan runs continuously unless the tank is full which shuts the machine down. It's the nature of the beast. It does run quietly. I have been happy with mine so far.

No, it does not have to run continuously but only as it is "connected" to the "heat" or "cool" modes. There is a selection on the remote that deals solely with "fan" - on, off, or auto. I am responding from memory. I have it installed on the Mr. Slim Mitsubishi which is in my aviary -- but I recall there is a mode dealing only with the fan. However, if the heat or air is on, then the fan runs in tandem, as required, for either of those two settings. It is great because I can set the temperature and simply leave it.

I have found it to be be sporadic. Initially, I would say no. But the more and more I have used it, it does. Not sure why that is.

I've never run it all night, but it has an on and off switch. I turn it on when I want it to run and turn it off when I am ready to stop it. If I didn't turn it off, I'm sure it would run all night.

I have had no problem, but I only run it for a few hours on low when i am in the room. It is a small room..I'm not sure that is a good idea, though.
