Didn’t work

Would Not Recommend

I wanted to use it in conjunction with one of the oil filled radiator type room heater set on the low setting to keep the chill of the motorhome setting in the back yard. I have wireless thermometer in the house with the sending sensor in the coach. The other morning we had a frost, the thermometer showed 31 degrees in the RV, it’s supposed to activate at 34 and off at 49. Didn’t work.

Bought 2 and never saw either one work!!

Would Not Recommend

I have gotten 2 of these and have yet toget them to work. I took the first one back thinking I got a dud but I can't get the second one to work either. Put it in the deep freezer and still couldn't get it to come on. These things are useless as far as I am concerned. I would pay double the price for a simple temperature set thermostat before I trusted one of these.

Heat wrap controller

Would Recommend

Nice easy plug in controller for water pipes and faucets. It would be better as a wired in unit as opposed to a plug in. This design is no good for outside exposure. So you have to provide a link between the outlet and the heat wrap. Also, the on level at above 40 degrees F. is a little high. For true energy savings, a more narrow on and off range would be preferable.

Great Idea

Would Recommend

This is a genius invention. Have my heater in the garage plugged into it and when it gets too cold, it comes on and keeps my water in the garage from freezing.

EasyHeat Freeze Free Pipe Heat Cable Controller

Would Recommend

Since the temperature hasn't gotten low enough for this to activate I haven't been able to test and see if it works(the first one that I bought worked for a winter, last two that I bought didn't work at all).

Electrical Thermostat for Well

Would Recommend

This Electrical Thermostat for Well works great turning the heat lamp on at 35 degrees and off at 55 degrees. Don’t waste electricity by having to leave the heat lamp on all the time.

Product works as intended for a couple years.

Would Recommend

After 2 winter seasons inside a well house, product may not work. I have had 4 of these and that is about how long I can expect to work. Easy to set up and when it works, it’s dependable.
