Can it heat without the fan being on?

You don't want to have any semi-small heater running without a fan because the heat density is too high. Convection heaters such as radiator or baseboard type have a much larger surface area and if designed well, usually involve heating a volume of liquid to reduce the thermal density even more, or are a burn hazard.

No. It uses the fan to move the air over the heating elemens to blow warn air, and beleive it or not, to also cool the heating coils so they don't over heat and cause the unit to shut down because of it getting to hot.

Not that I'm aware of. I imagine if you knew what you were doing, you might somehow override the settings and stop the fan - but I don't see why you would want to when it so effectively projects the heat outward in order to quickly heat an area. Without the fan, the heat would largely remain localized, so anyone/anything more than a foot or two away wouldn't feel it.

Nope! It's heat only. It's small and if you're looking to heat even a small room, you'll need something bigger. But if you just want to heat a personal space - like around your desk at work - this works fine. The small fan moves the warm air pretty well. As long as you know it's on the small side, it's a good buy!

It has a fan only on, heat only on, and then it has a knob that you can control the fan speed with, but no thermostat.

Yes, you can, and by the way, it's a very powerful but still silent fan, the heater has it's own fan and only operates with the heater on. My unit does not have a light but it is available also.

It has a small fan and you must plug in the cord if you wish the fan to run. The heater will work just fine without the fan an you do not have t use it, but the fan does increase the comfort further away.

I have not left it on if I am gone, however the heat element does turn on and off automatically according to whatthe thermostat is set for. I think you would probably be ok.

Not a problem. It is definitely safe to do this. No, it doesn't have a fan, but the heat dissipates because your hard drive is not enclosed. You'll be fine as long as you're in a climate-controlled room. There is also an on-off switch if you do choose to turn it off to save energy when not in use.

No....the heater has two settings. High and Low but the fan must be running when it is emitting heat.

Probably not the fan is made so that it sits on top of a heating unit specificaly a wood stove. The fans housing conducts heat and converts that into energy to turn the fan. So you need direct heat of 175-200 degrees.

Yes. There is a switch for the light, and a separate switch for the fan so that they work independently. So you could have the light on without the fan, or the fan on without the light, or have them both on at the same time.

I would say yes. As long as air is getting to the heatsink, I think it would work fine without the fan.

Yes, if you hook the fan to a thermostat, it will run the fan alone when the room is at the proper temperature, and engage the heat element as needed.

Yes. U can have either the fireplace on with the blower or u can just have the flames on without it blowing hot air.

I wasn't aware that it is available without the fan. I rarely use the fan, and believe you could do without it, unless you use your laptop under hot conditions.

No, the fan will run while the heater is heating, but both the heat and fan will shut on and off according to the temperature you have it set to. (There is no actual number or degree of heat you can set, you just turn the dial on the far right, and when the desired warmth has been reached, slowly turn it down til the heat/fan turns itself off. When the room temp falls, it will automatically turn itself on again.

Nope! I've used mine without turning it off, or taking breaks, for well over an hour and haven't felt it get hot yet.

Hi there,Yes, the fireplace can be used without expelling any heat. The thermostat on it can be changed, as well as the brightness of the flames.Thanks for your question-Wishack
