Very nice little heater unit - expecially for a workshop type space that you need to knock the chill off of. Super great that it is a connected device so you can pre-heat the shop prior to going out to work. You're going to need that this week and this coming weekend, for sure.
Quick tip, I like to tin or solder stranded wire in some applications. This keeps the strands all in one solid connection, especially under lug screws. I'm getting ready to order a shop heater, and this video was great! I'm going to look closer at this heater. I would recommend to anyone, use a Romex connector through that 3/4 hole in the heater. Also I would have used a different ground lug. That one with the heater looks cheap. Thanks for the video. This was great information.
Please check wiring diagram because you could be switching the neutral instead of the active, if that's the case when you turn the unit off everything inside is still live.
Once you pair up the external thermostat, does the unit then use that to determine the temperature setpoint? Like say you had it paired up and put the external thermostat in a cold corner. Would the unit then keep running until that cold corner was warmed up to the desired temperature or is it still based on the unit itself and the temperature of it?
Ok you got heat yay 🎉 but now what are you going to do when it comes to summer? Why didn't you ask a mini split company you can sponsor them? That way you would get heating and cooling for free since you would be sponsored by then.
@@desupernoodle oh I’m happy for him, I’ve got a heater just like that one, it works super awesome, costs me 15$/day to run in my shop though, it’s a hog
Ive heard good and bad reviews on this model. I like the power and wifi capability. But, is this chinese junk? I would appreciate any input from those who own these. Thanks.
@@LandtoHouse We are in between homes right now. Looking to sell where we are presently. It would be ideal to have a wifi heater to throw additional heat in house during winter months when temps are below zero, while mot there. I just worry that things made in China may cause a house fire while not there. Do you feel this unit is of high quality? I appreciate all your input.
I think a cable clamp / strain relief should be installed where that cable enters the heater

Gonna need another 30 solar panels to offset that electric hog monster
Yes it cheaper than wood at 1.59 a gallon
Would u used this in ur home?
Ventless red glow Propane heaters is the cheapest way to heat in Missouri

Yes that's exactly how it work. Great for warming up the whole room.
Can you wire this unit directly to a 240v circuit with a junction box rather than a plug in?
Yes you absolutely can. One of the reasons I wired my heater as I did is because I wanted to visually see it was unplugged.
@@LandtoHouse Thanks for the info

And it could be ran off solar
Why can't people just be happy for others anymore.

This shop has a window AC unit for summer cooling.

This heater has kept my 14x20 shop at temp all winter. I am very happy with it. The unit stays on the 3000w setting. So far no issues.
