I purchased this with the thermostat kit to heat a 160 sq. ft shed that has an attached greenhouse. The thermostat kit was very straightforward and the instructions were very clear and simple. It's nice to set a temp on the thermostat and have it held within a couple of degrees. It's had no problem keeping the shed above 55 degrees even with temps dipping below 20 degrees this winter. If you can't do the electrical wiring yourself then you'll need an electrician to install a 240 volt plug. Very pleased with it so far.

I originally tried to use the heater without this external thermostat but it was erratic and hard to control the temperature in the greenhouse. After adding this thermostat, it has been “set it and forget it”, the temperature stays within a two degree F range through the cold nights.

It was easy to install and the directions sent with the thermostat were easy to follow.

System is working well at this point. Was a little upset it wasn’t American made product like the old hulk. Waiting to see if it will cost less to run! Only loaded one photo. This is the greenhouse it is heating.

 

Every 220 volt heater I could find was only available with a dial thermostat built into it. It has been my past experience that none of them are very accurate and tend to be the first point of failure. Finally I found one with a separate thermostat that I can place away from the heater! I now have the thermostat mounted where it is easy to read and make changes to, and it does not constantly cycle on and off like those cheap ones made into the heaters. THANK YOU!
