How warm do they get a room?

Is really depends on the size of the room. It's great for a small room but for a big drafty room it does not provide enough warmth.

If you leave it on all the time, it will keep a small to medium sized room fairly warm. It will not heat a room right away or keep a room warm if its really cold. The one issue I have with this heater is that it cracked after normal usage.

Probably too small for a heater. Would believe that ambient temp will suffice for normal room temps.

16ft X 24ft room easily @70°f, as long as good insulation and windows and not big open entrances to other rooms.

If the room is well insulated and the outside temperature is in the 30 degree range it wil probably heat it reasonably well. There are to many variables for a really accurate response.

Obviously, it gets warm. We have 2 of them and use them both under a 9 foot patio cover with a drywall, painted ceiling which has about a foot of clearance. We have not had any issues.

A room about 10 ft long by 13 to 15 ft wide (130 -150 square feet) with average insulation. The 475 watt envi heater has been specifically designed to heat an average room measuring 130 - 150 square feet in floor area, to between 68 and 72 degrees, even in the coldest parts of the country. In rooms that have one or more of the following conditions: inferior insulation, many windows, staircases leading upwards, adjoining rooms that cannot be closed off (open plan) or outside entrances - this ratio may have to be lowered slightly. For rooms with above average insulation or warmer climates this ratio might be able to be increased. You can add as many heaters as you like to heat any size room, home or office. For rooms with no insulation or for rooms such as sunrooms with entire walls made of glass we recommend a ratio of one 475 watt heater per 60-80 square feet of floor area.

To be honest, we have such hot weather that I'm thrilled it knocks our temperature in a huge window-lined room down more than 10 degrees. Our room also has the disadvantage of having a huge archway that opens into a mud room and the rest of our home. It was 98 degrees outside and I was thrilled my sunroom was 80 degrees. I think expectations should be adjusted depended on load, how open the room is to other areas, and the external temperature. One thing this is NOT is central air. We have central air and there is no comparison. That being said, I still think this is the best portable unit on the market today and we are still very pleased with it.

We heat a kitchen/den about 15 ft. x 20 ft. We live in upstate S.C., so we don't have severe cold weather.

My bonus room is 12 X 24 with a 7 foot high ceiling, knee walls and is insulated with R19. In heat mode it will run you out of there. I live in VA so winters are not that harsh but I have no problems in heat or cooling.

We are using ours in a room that is 14 by 24 and it gets nice and comfortable. This is a closed room in our lower level. It gets to temp and shuts off. We are happy with ours.

Strictly UV, not a source of heat for the enclosure. They might get a little warm, but they are not to hot to touch or anything even when they have been running for hours.

There's no easy way to do it. You can fiddle with the settings. The temperature also depends on the size of the room.

Brinsea says 20, I have had from 2 to 23 under it. When they are small they will get under it and keep their backs warm like getting under a hen, when they get older and bigger they get under it and on top of it. Works great, uses far less electricity than a heat lamp, and much safer. The height is adjustable.

It should be decently warm out. Mine were hard to put in on the front windows . i had to tweak them a bit to get them in

They will be just fine at room temperature, unless your home is very warm. Just keep them in a cabinet out of light and away from the kitchen and you should be fine.

It isn't going to completely heat your room up, I would suggest a larger model with more power. Or get two. I have the same size room and have Spanish tile, so it gets cold! I have 2 heaters, which makes it warmer with 2.

They are pretty good... we have 3... they easily heat a room 15x15 or bigger... and have a thermostat so you can select your temperature...
