It doesn't produce heat.There is actually a cool refreshing breeze that flows out of the front of the unit.

This unit does produce any heat. On the contrary I sometimes use it as a fam

No it does not produce heat. It actually blows cool air. So in my apartment living room I point it towards me because it gets so warm in there during the winter when we have the heater on. I am very happy with my purchase. If you buy it, don't forget to vacuum off the filter at least once a week.

It does have a full off setting ..... but ..... if the ambient room temp drops low enough it will occasionally energize. I agree with GuitarChaser. If you want the unit to last blow down the heat elements at least once a year, a bit more frequently if in a dusty environment. It'll make the elements thrive or ...... at least last a reasonably long length of time.

I use mine in a basement and it works fine. I've not noticed excessive heat production during the past several months. :-)

Hi we use ours everyday sometimes for 6 to 8 house and we have never noticed a heat problem. It is activated now and it is cool to the touch.

I really like this heater but I am not comfortable leaing any space heater unattended. It will be interested to see what other answers u get.

I have not encountered the above problem with my unit. It does a satisfactory job of drawing the room temp down, but I open the sliding glass doors and let my home central air help cool the room. My whynter unit is used to supplement the home central air in one room only.

No. I have had this unit for almost two years. It has performed as expected and I have not noticed any excessive heat.

Surprisingly, no. Initially, I installed it in a cabinet with a sound science 2-speed fan on top that pushed any generated heat out the back, but I never really got an impression of extreme heat. Great unit by the way!

The exterior does not get real hot. I have never worried about leaving the room with it on.

It is very small and does great for one room. I have not noticed any heat coming from this unit. There is minimal noise. I am very satisfied with it for alternating with our bathroom and kitchen area.

I have two of these heaters fans each in bathrooms and I have not noticed any significant changes in my electric bill. Of course they're only used on cold days. But again no real big change even during the winter months.

No I didn't notice anything about that. And I'm not sure how energy saving it is. I use it in a small bathroom.

We have it in a media cabinet behind a glass door but the back panel of the cabinet is off allowing heat to be released. Haven't noticed much heat output and I believe it has an eco mode, allowing it to run on a cooler temperature. I'm really happy with this unit

No, my unit works without any heat problem. I recommend this product very well.

Yes, it does heat the room a up little but, since ours is in the basement, it's a plus. I wouldn't say it heats the room up a lot but, since there's a fan running to circulate the air, the entire room is a nice even temperature. Cost depends upon the amount of usage but it's probably comparable to a small air conditioner.

well, it gives off heat radiating it via its body. I need to tell you though that I dont think this is a good indoor unit. It does not contain much wood, and goes through it pretty quick, its also leaky. If you ar heating a remote wood cabin ... fine ... but your living room ... nope, dont do it.
