Can a thernostate be connected to the heater

The control knob has a high and low setting. Given the smaller nature of the heat output, I do not think you need a thermostat. I heat a large 11' slideout camper just fine.

No because you have to start it manually We have it in a small truck camper it is super

It's just a gas flow control valve that regulates temperature. So I would say no unless you were some crazy nasa scientist who wanted to throw a few thousand dollars at it to make it happen.

No, a thermostat cannot be connected to any of the Olympian Wave heaters. If you want an unvented heater with a thermostat Kozy World radiant heaters above 10,000 BTU would be a good choice.

Yes. I have two on one thermostat. Each heater has it's own breaker and two pole relay. In your case you would have three breakers and three relays. Then all you need to have control voltage through your wall thermostat (120 v) to energize the control relays.

The short answer is "yes", you need a separate thermostat. The longer answer varies from "maybe" to "no". We bought the Dimplex heater to replace a similar one that we have been using of 25 years with just a switch - no thermostat. We have 2 of these heaters in bathrooms for the specific purpose of warming the bathroom when one was taking a bath or a shower. We are in Maine with primarily wood heat, so various rooms differ in heat levels quite a bit. Works fine, turn the heater on, take your tub or shower, then turn the heater off. If you want to use this heater to maintain a certain temperature in a room, then "yes" a thermostat is required. I believe the Dimplex heaters have provision for a thermostat to be mounted in the heater, not an ideal situation from my perspective, but it could work for some installations. Manual or Dimplex website has more info on this thermostat. Hope this helps. Richard, Camden, Maine

Doubt it. Thermostats are low voltage. Cost would be high but you can use a step down transformer. In real life - just turn the stupid thing on or off!

No, I would think that for most in-the-floor heaters and especially for bathroom usage, one must power this thermostat and the heater with a GFCI circuit. I know I had to rewire my system to add (convert) another GFCI circuit for my new in-the-floor heater.Rob2's answer makes me wonder if this thermostat has more capability than I remember -- will try to find the manual and check later.Checked the manual, and it says nothing about GFCI. Either use a GFCI circuit breaker (expensive) or an 'upstream' GFCI receptacle.

I don't see why not. However, you will need a 240 volt circuit and have to wire that heater for 240 volt operation. The thermostat requires this voltage.

No regarding the wattage. While the thermostat does control draw, user can't restrict it to only certain wattage.

No. This is just a mechanical thermostat. When the temp reaches the manually indicated setting, the 12v system (in my RV) 'connects.'

I run my heater all the time. It's also possible to use a thermostat with these heaters.

Anytime this unit is on, the heater runs. So, if so, I haven't figured out how. But for my purpose I need the heater.

I don't know. This heater worked for one season and never worked again. There is NO customer support. You will be on your own. I'd recommend another unit.

Yes. The unit is not a traditional heating element heater. You can touch the unit and you will not get burned.

Make certain that your circuit breaker has adequate amp to operate the heater
1901781
Yes you can,As long as the unit does not have a night feature.you will also have to wire (If the unit has regular light) the light,exhaust fan and heater together for the timer switch(Which means you have no control over the heater being off if you don't need it)unless the timer switch has an additional switches.

No, but you can use honeywell Prestige IAQ thermostat, which communicates wirelessly (redlink) with a control box you can mount next to the heater

Hi Glen, NO you cannot. The unit has a sensor bulb mounted on the rear , that is the thermostat for the heater there is a small capillary tube on the sensor and most units have that tube coiled inside, you can CAREFULLY ! pull it out about 6 inches to better sense the room temp. I did this on my porch heater to keep it off the back of the unit, The actual thermostat is the control knob just monitor your room temp to find youre sweet spot. hope this helps, Jon.

You sure could do that. Just set it to your choice of fan speed, heat setting, etc. with the outlet timer ON, leave the heater at that desired settings, timer goes OFF so does the heater and then it will come to life when the timer energizes the heater. Guess the only issue would be if your timer has the appropriate rating to operate the heater.
