Why do you suggest this device be used in an unoccupied room? Isn't that an oxymoron? Is it NOT safe in an occupied room?

It shouldn't be used in an occupied room only when you turn on the Ozone Generator, since ozone is a dangerous gas for your lungs. It can be turned on/off with the left knob; while the right knob controls the air purifier function. The air purifier is safe for breathing. The ozone function might be used to leave the device in an unoccupied room and return after an hour or so and turn it off. It's necessary only to kill a very bad odor.

It's better than nothing. I can feel the difference in my bedroom when I get up in the morning with it turned on whole night. Not sure if it is safe used in a wet environment.

Trust me, it will not keep you up. It is safe to knoe the unit prevents electrical surges and is fire retardant. This takes safe to a new level. Not to mention the six outlets and 2 USB Chargers. I have purchased 11 units so far, and I love them. That is the truth.

I have always used it in a house but don't think it would be a problem! It is pretty quiet.

I use it as an air purifier. I truly do not think this will help a hot room. It has lasted a long time and is pretty good as a purifier in my hall. I only used it one time as a cold air unit. To me it was a nuisance, and it would have to be right in front of you. I have an additional window a/c unit for my bedroom that works well. You can get those pretty reasonable. I honestly do not think this particular item is your answer.

It isn't really the intended use for this device; and it is really loud, so using it inside of a closed car is probably not the best of ideas. You are better off with a vacuum.

It can only be used in rooms like garage, or barn. In a small room that is not ventilated can cause death. Not legal in some states. I use mine in a 20x20 room that has no door and I leave a bathroom window with a little crack openning.

I have mine hooked up in a 3 stall garage and haven't had any problems or concerns. I also don't see why it would be a danger in a small space especially with the thermostat control.

I wouldn't but I'm kind of a safety freak. (Just as I don't leave my dryer on when I go to bed.) My son feels safe with his left on at night mainly because it does have the tip over "off" safety feature. I think the company even recommends that it be unplugged when not in use.

I have not found that to be an issue, because my units are in a closet, turned video library. However, I can see your point and agree it could be an issue if placed in a traffic/walking area; but, without the enlarged base, the unit would be unstable and prove useless.

I would question the safety of using such a device in the bathroom. The law requires GFCI's and it would be easy to overload one with this. I would suggest replacing the outlet itself and/or adding more outlets to code. These devices are fine for lamps and such but when you start using them on hair dryers and such it is way to easy to overload the circuit.

I would not leave any heater unattended. The heater works well in a very small space. It will not heat a large room. It uses a lot of amps and resulted in blown fuse. I would not purchase another one.

I wouldn't recommend it. Because it could be fire-hazard, or treat it as one , just to be on the safe side. &#128549;

What Allen said. It's an open-flame design. Not safe at all for enclosed spaces.

Isabel L, I've never tried using it that way so I really can't tell you if that is a good idea or not. Although common sense dictates that it is not advisable because it such a small space and because there is no ventilation, it can be suffocating inside.

Rowdy Ron is correct. This is not a device that can be enclosed. Not at all designed for that. This is an open-air device as the instructions are very clear about. By the time & money you spend to get this enclosed you might as well have bought a whole house system. Beside that, I found this item to be untrustworthy for home back up. I suggest looking for another option for your need. Anytime you try to take an outdoor item such as this and try to "indoor" it you are asking for trouble. Better safe that sorry. Yes that sounds cliche, but in this case it applies. Safety first. I would like to have to answer a question for you again in the future. :) Rowdy Ron is correct.

Anytime! & EnjoyBut Do keep in Mind, It's Not something that will Circulate a LARGE Room. I believe the have Bigger units similar to this that's probably better fit for that kind of a job.Also, remember Not to keep things Such as Wires, curtains or cloth clothing and materials so close to it Because they will melt or catch fire but the warning label will tell you more of it.
