is it hardwire or plug in

Hardware.... I had a contractor run wire from circuit box in my basement to a double stall garage that I keep my summer car in. And it was well worth it. I should have done this several years ago. The heater has to be run on a separate line due to the 5,000 watt...240 volt draw. You can set the thermostat low so that it only comes on once in a while. Amazing how well this heater works in a double stall garage. If you were to heat a single garage the next smaller unit would do the job quite well.

You can choose either way. I've done both. I like the versatility of plug in, although it is 220 volts so you need a 220 outlet wherever you choose to put it. I have one in my basement and one in my garage so I can move the heater when I'm in one or the other place. I'm usually not working in both spaces at the same time.

It comes with no cord so you would have to either add a cord and plug or hard wire it with BX (flexible metal conduit) and appropriate wire. Due to the rated current I think number 10 wire is needed for either wiring method. I purchased a length of heavy duty 'cord' from I think Home Depot and installed an electric dryer plug (30 amp) to match the outlet in my shop.

It is designed to be hardwired. I wired it with a 30a, 10ga generator cord and plug to make it more portable if needed.

This had to be hard wired. I also thought it might be able to be plugged in but no. However, I bought a plug and used the wiring to add the plug and it worked fine.

I had it installed and I don't think it had a plug. Pretty sure it had to be wired. I have it connected to a switch.

It needs to be hard wired. However, if you want to plug it into the wall you can buy a plug at a hardware store to convert it.

I believe it is a flexible wire that plugs into the back. I bought this as a gift.

It's hard wired. We've had it up in our kitchen now for several months and love it.

It is hardwired but it can be adapted to be a plug in (easily). Great light!

You either need to hardwire it or get a pigtail to plug it in. I suggest hardwiring it.

It is a plug in, maybe convertible to hardwire, but it was not included in the box. The cord is about 6 foot long.

No, it's hardwired. I bought one as a replacement for the aftermarket unit I had that quit working. It fit right into the bracket/power supply already installed in my car.

It is plug in, but it was easy enough to by pass and hard wire - which is what I did

Just saw this. Had to change the wiring for plug in. It comes for hardwire.

It is a plug in so you can see the cord which has a turn on/off switch on it..not sure if it can be hard wired. My lamps on each side of a headboard which is also black..not very noticeable.

Yes it has a plug, so you do not have to hard wire it. You have to cut the plug off to hard wire it, but if you are doing a hard wire, that should not be a problem!
