is it any good in a garage that gets below freezing? I live in Colorado! Brrrrrrr!

I think it's HAS to help at least a considerable amount. I don't see too many below freezing days however we do get a few really cold days. I had it on a porch and put big heavy tarps around the porch.I didn't spend hours outside though, I don't know if you work in your garage or how long you'll be out there, if so you may want to position it so you can be right under it

I used mine all winter long in the basement here in central il. Havent had any issues and the thing works great! Ive unplugged it a few times but for the most part it runs 24/7. I know for sure it ran alright around 50°f maybe lower.

This is the 6th of these I have installed in varying garage and shop sizes and locations. Each has performed flawlessly for my intended purpose of keeping gear and equipment from cold damage. I hold at about 50-55 degrees F when I'm not actively in the space.

We live in the North West. The Auto Floor Guard fits perfect in the garage and the slush, snow remaine inside the barriers surrounding the perimeter of the guard. Works like the litature said.

As you have found out in this last week, It can get cold enough to freeze in the winter, even in Yuma. That being said, if you have an insulated garage, that would be your best bet.

I think you have to look at the space your heating and how well it is insulated. I installed one in a 2 car garage, fairly insulated, and it keeps the temp. just above the outside on very cold days.

We have ours inside, but we live in a hotter part of SoCal than you. I would bet that garage storage in such a mild climate like yours, doesn't really affect it much.

I leave my battery, weedwacker and charger in the garage year round (upstate ny) and haven't had any problems! Winters are freezing and snowy and today it's 93 and hot and humid! I would imagine wherever you are it should be ok as long as its dry!

I haven't had an issue with my unit chilling. In fact I've had to turn it down. My little refrigerator stays in my garage so it's subject to hot weather in Texas.

I am also in MN and it worked like a champ when I installed it this last january. (Garage not heated)

We live in Wisconsin and it gets real cold here in the winter. We have had our 10 cu ft freezer in the garage for 13 years. Works great and I am guessing that it doesn't run much during the cold spells. Jim

We live in the Pacific NW so freezing is not really an issue here as it rarely drops below zero. We have ours stored in the garage and didn't have any problems over the winter.

Depends on the size of the garage and what you mean by super cold. If the cats have a nice box with a blankee in the bottom. If you leave the heater on to heat the garage and not just turn it on at the last minute. If it's going to be sub-zero. Your best bet would be to get a cat bed heating pad that they sell here on Amazon. Then you won't have to heat the whole garage and they'll be toasty. It'd save electricity too.

Lord no! Don't put that thing in your garage! It really stinks, but it really works! We put ours on the edge of the woods where they will get sun. Try our best not to get downwind of them.

good point. this will be my first summer using it. it did wonders for the winter. my bedroom and bathroom over the garage hit 80 degrees for the first time since I owned the house. I will definitely keep an eye on the temps this summer. Worst case I should delicately be able to remove the insulation for the summer. Shoot me a message in August. I will let you know if my house burned down. lol

It hangs in my unheated, but insulated garage in a north central state. It is used more occasionally than regularly, but has been used in all seasons and operates satisfactorily. No problems with its operation.

I use it in a 24x28 garage. I do work in the garage in the winter and it will keep it at 70-75 degrees. I was usi9ng milk house heaters before and they kept burning out the thermostats . For me this heater works great. Lloyd Jones
