Lasted 1 year

Would Not Recommend

This heater only lasted us a year and a couple months Glad I got the protection plan. Got our money back to purchase a better one.

Do not buy

Would Not Recommend

Had the heater for 2 winters to heat single car garage. 1st winter it worked flawlessly. 2nd winter begin tripping 50 amp breaker when manufactered for 30amps. Contacted manufacturerer, about warranty and service. Stated warrany is only for 1 year and no technicians local. Would have to ship to California to be serviced (shipping and service fee and/or parts would be more than unit costed!) Would not recommend. 2 stars due to initial use and no issues.

Good Quality, Temperature Control and Airflow

Would Recommend

This was recently purchased as a backup for the existing unit that is in its fifth winter season heating a greenhouse. The unit is compact with good temperature control (± 3°- 4°F) and good circulation airflow. The heater is connected to a 30 amp 240 volt circuit using a NEMA #6-30P plug.
