As I live in a cold weather climate, does this operate with the heating system as well?

According to installation instructions, the unit is powered continuously, that is to say, once installed, you plug it into an available 115 vac outlet. That means that the operation of the UV unit is not associated with heating or cooling. The effective life of the bulb in continuous operation is about a year, so I plan to replace the bulb as part of my annual routine HVAC maintenance. The effectiveness of UV light on mold is unaffected by temperature. I am satisfied with the ease of installation and operation of the unit.

It is installed in the duct work of the HVAC system. It does both. Extremely simple install.

I haven't used it with the heat yet. I put it in the return air duct. It should be good with heat. I have noticed less mold on food and the air seems treasure.

hmm not really a question but here we go if you place the unit in the outdoors protected from weather it will turn on around the temp it says and shut off at the warmer temp if u use a timer in there it would be pointless being it would only work when it was cold or it might not get power when it needs to turn on good luck

Yes, it only operates on 110 degrees and is very reliable. Heat is consistent based upon setting.

It uses a thermostatic valve. All you have to do is provide hot/cold water supply. All the systems work at the same time and work well.

I am no expert, but I think that basically you have a heat pump (w/ Aux & Em) like I do, so this thermostat should work as expected; actually, for me, it is a great unit, better than a more expensive model I had before!

In heat mode, mine vents cold air to the outside through the same hose as it blows cold air when in air conditioning mode. In heat mode mine blows hot air out the vents in the top. It is heat pump, so it won't work if it is too cold. If you vent air in from the outside and it is 45 degrees or less out, then the heater won't work. Disconnect you air intake hose so it is using the room air and it should work. I'm not a technician, but this is my understanding.

Yes. If you check the control unit from time to time you'll see it's sometimes hot and sometimes just a little warm. This is how they work...when they work. You'll be fine!

I use this with an inside gas heater, and an outside Heatp/AC unit. Automatically switches between hot and cold, to maintain your settings. I believe there is a newer model. Basically the same, but has different color choices on the display. I am happy with the device!

Yes, this heater does turn on and off and keeps temps regulated. Plus you can see the temp and set the temp that you want. In hot weather (if your house gets hot) you may have to pull back on the temp and visa versa if your house is cold but it does a great job. Best small heater I've ever purchased.

Sure it defrosts as needed. It is operational for heating down to 5F, in cooling down to 32F. Ambient.

I live in Indiana so we have had some cold weather however I have not been through a winter with it. It seems to work well all the time. I like to use the cover that comes with it that keeps the unit clean and from getting soaked. Hope this helps. Thank you

Yes but it has temp control to turn on & off at 40 or higher if you wish. I have left it unattended in my pump house all winter.

I am using it indoor. Not sure whether it can resist the cold weather or not.

No, weather doesn't seem to affect it at all. Works great unless the power goes off.

Yes I have had no issues with unit so far. And with the sub zero temperatures lately it is still working fine.

Winter where I am has not been consistently cold enough for me to be sure. We have had a few cold days. The dehumidifier kept running without freezing over but extracted moisture at a slower rate. It also provided some heat. I'm not sure, but I believe the manufacturer claims the unit can run at lower temps. I hope this helps.

It works great, however, if the outside air temp is below 10-15 degrees fahrenheit or so, the unit will not work. So, when it's really, really cold out, for some reason the system has a safety mechanism that prevents it from working. Sounds crazy, but true. Once the day warms up enough, it kicks back on.
