Does this particular unit throw out heat or just cold air?

It has no heating element - just blows whatever air through, like most fans.

It's supposed to create hot or cool air flow but the hot air is actually just mildly warm & a big disappointment.

Its not a heater nor an air conditioner. It circulates the air in the room like a blade fan would except there are no blades to catch dust or fingers.

Don't think enough heat is emitted to matter, in any event the fan blows it away from the unit downward

yes it does. It gives off a soft heat, not like most heaters that blasts heat and dispences to the ceiling. Works best when it really cold. Not when its mildly cold.

The heater has two power levels. When you turn it on lo, a fan comes on but I really don't feel that it is forcing air out of the heater. I think it may be a fan that is keeping the internal components from getting to warm. I bought one last year and like it so well that I got another recently. Of all the brands that I have tried, this one is the one I can recommend and the one I like the best.

When removing the moisture from the airThe air is dry and only feels warmer.The unit does not have any heaters and cannot generate any heat .

If it's a inside wall. Econo- Heat say's no outside walls either block or framed Cold air will effect the way the heater operates. I found out some of my heaters burned out after a few years. I still have one that is three years old.

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.

While I have only used for cooling, you can feel some warm air coming from the fan. You must make sure not to have that blocked. The warm air is barely noticeable but I have never had anyone in the back seat where it is placed. I must place my hand against the fan grill to feel the air. Unit works great. I usually freeze a battle of water to act like as ice cube. Very satisfied.

It works far better blowing the hot air out of the cabinet. Unless you can tie it directly to an AC vent, blowing air in simply won't be cold enough to make a meaningful difference.

I put one of these in our always cool, 14x20' lower Family Room. While it has made a somewhat noticeable difference in temp, I'll probably add at least one more. The information supplied by the manufacturer seems to be accurate regarding the size of room and number of units needed. Also, these things provide what I would call " ambient heat". There is no sound, movement, blowing air, etc. just a warmth that emanates from the unit. It kind of fools you into wondering if it really works, but it does!

Mine does the same thing, the motor for the blower heats up in use, as a result, the air is warm do to the fact that air is pulled past the motor inside the unit. But there will be a significant difference in heat when the heat is turned on either on low or the high setting. If there's no heat difference then you may have a problem. Hope this helps.

No, my unit works without any heat problem. I recommend this product very well.

I cannot remember but I was not impressed with its performance and had to return it. It may have been a bad unit but even when the room it was in was at 40 - 50 degrees F, the unit were run a few minutes (blew hot air fine) and then shut off because its thermostat thought the room was warm. Somehow the sensor was too close to the heated airstream.

Based on the quick start guide the unit will work with a system that is Heat Only or Cool Only. There is a selection for only heat or air.

Good question! My unit has been running non-stop for at least 3 months. I just checked it for any trace of heat and there is none whatsoever, either on the unit itself, or in the air coming out, which is relatively cool. I have not owned the unit during a hot season, though, nor do I live in an area that normally gets extremely hot for long periods of time. (I live high in the mountains of Colorado where most people don't even have air conditioning.) Still, I believe that this unit won't contribute additional heat to your room.

have not noticed any heat given off by the unit, it is very quiet and well worth the money
