Does the thermostat work well for auto on and off? I want to use this for back up to furnace in second home. Set it to go on at 50 degrees, off at 55

I send this Duraflame Portable to my daughter. She loves it ! Her E-mail is dianamaine@gmail.com. Send her an E-mail and she can tell you more. She has been using it last winter and is using ising it already now.

It won't do a range but does well with staying with 1 or 2 degrees of where you set it.

Mine has worked very well. I have 2 and am extremely happy with them, I dont have to heat the whole house now. I don't set it for a double setting Just set it at 55 degrees and it will come on when below that and go off when it reaches that temp.

Hello, any temperature 35F and below will make it automatically come on....good luck,stay warm.

My old thermostat had to be switched from heat to cool. The Hunter works perfectly in this application (gas furnace plus air conditioner). If you have a complex system such as multi-stage or heat pump, I'd consult with an expert.

I would say No...it has a "thermostat" dial, and in our large garage it keeps it at 45 degrees at the lowest setting during the winter. The first on e I bought would not cycle on and off , so make sure its working like it should.

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.

The temp range is maybe 70F-140F degrees on the thermostat ... There is NO an on/off setting.This unit is in my attic and I haven't been up there in a while-- so those temp ranges are just a guess. Thanks!

This can be set on "hi" or "low", both of which bypass the thermostat and are not auto off. Or you can use the thermostat settings which are auto off based on room temp (though the thermostat temp settings seem inaccurate)

Each time the unit is powered off, when powered back on (which you need to do manually), it starts off at 75 degrees. You then need to adjust it to your preferred setting.

automatically sets at 85 for cool and 62 for heat. you can program it much lower or higher. I did not check to see how far it goes but pretty much like a thermostat on central unit

with the th115-a-120s thermostats set it and forget it. i have never run one in my home witout the 115. 4 units /th115 code where i live. i have 10 units. i think they are cheaper to run than go thermmo. 1000sq ft. home for about 8 yrs.

It has a thermostadt that can be digitaly set to the desired temp. Now whether it can be set as low as 45 degrees I am not sure but you surely can set if for 50 degrees and it will function very well. I have a 400 square foot den and on the coldest days, and I am talking 20 degrees below, it will run you out of the room when set on 70 degrees. I had to set it at about 65 degrees to tolerate the heat. This heater really performs well. To answer your question will it turn off once the temp is reached...the answer is YES it will and turn on when it drops below the desired temp too.

Mine has never got too hot. It cycles on and off depending upon the temperature setting. I set mine on 70 degrees and leave it there. When room temperature reaches 70 it shuts off - first the heat and then the fan after it cools a bit. Works just like your whole house thermostat.

On at 85 yes but mine seems to go off at about 80, not sure where you saw the off at 65. I have my office in an attic room so I can hear when this fan goes on/off. I have found no way to adjust the on/off temp.

The heater will kick back off and on - I set my thermostat to what ever temp I want and it works just fine.

It should switch automatically based on your set temp. If it needs to cool down it will switch to cool and vice versa.

My unit is behaving exactly as what you (and the user manual) describe. I set the thermostat temp to a comfortable 68 degrees. The unit heats up to +4, which is 72 degrees, and then it shuts off. That's great. However, as soon as my room temperature drops to 71 degrees, which is about 2 minutes later, the unit kicks back on in LOW mode. This is WAY too sensitive. When the room temperature reaches 72 degrees again, which is about 30 seconds later, the unit shuts off again. The unit cycles between 71 and 72 degrees, and therefore, turns on and off continuously every couple of minutes or so. Mind you, neither 71 nor 72 is my desired temperature. The constant clicking on/off makes this feature unusable. It is quite ironic that this feature is called Save Smart. It should be renamed "Waste Dumb" in my opinion.

Yes the heater does turn off and back on but the temperature indicators are in increments of 5°. It shows high and low settings of 60, 65, 70, 75 and 80°
