Hey K6 Outdoors, thanks for the positive words and supporting Made In USA products! Happy to see you guys having an informative discussion about the KB ECO2S heater, as we are proud of the products we design and manufacturer here is Seattle!
Thanks for stopping in! I greatly appreciate it. So far my heater has worked really well am id like others to hear from actual use applications. Ive had many people express interest in getting one of these heaters and know of a few who have purchased them. 🍻
This just came in my feed and was glad I took the time to watch you! A lot of useful information here, which I truly appreciate as I am now in the market for something like this. I can tell your a man who doesn’t cut corners by the look of you shop/trim work! Nice setup! 👍🏽
Hey, thanks for stopping in! Its the finer details that make all it come together thats for sure! Good luck in your heater search and let me know if you have any questions!
Just wanted to say thanks for making this vid! Have pretty much the same exact size garage and insulation values and just put in the heater after seeing your video! Everything is working perfectly and I can't say enough how instrumental your video was in helping me make a decision on a heating solution!
Glad I could be of help and that everything is working as planned. Thanks for stopping in and stay warm! Appreciate the feedback it makes all of the hard work worth it!
Unfortunately, not all heaters are created equal. Ive seen many people have problems with the cheap units, and they just quit working in the first year. Amazon prices can vary wildly, this same heater is $799 at menards. Thanks for stopping in! King Electric 7,500W 240V Heavy Duty Digital Forced Air Electric Garage Heater at Menards® www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/heaters/electric-garage-heaters/king-electric-240v-heavy-duty-digital-forced-air-electric-garage-heater/kb2407-1-b2-eco/p-1461692447268-c-6328.htm
I bought one from Merard,s in Waterloo a few weeks ago and took my time figuring out where to put it. Settled on keeping the 8/2 wire cost down so 12' of the wire was all I needed. Previously I had a 32" wide Defiance wood stove with 8" flue but I'm getting too old to split wood and worry about the fire frying my 24x28' detached shop. I also had a 50 year old Dayton 5kw 220v. heater for the mild winter days, but it's heating element and cabinet get pretty hot and I'll prolly move it into the attached garage when I upgrade the house service. My King heater is also a 7500w like yours and the $469 price tag was about double the chinese stuff, but still $180 cheaper than the Dayton 7.5KW and the ads didn't say if it was US made or not. The USA made was a big selling point and I have a motto that goes like, " Buy the best and only cry once." One feature you didn't mention in the video was the safety feature of the heater where you here the click some time after the fan turns on when you first fire it up so there's always air circulating over the coils as they warm up. Likewise, when the thermostat shuts off the heater coils, .but the the fan keeps running to cool down the heating element. This should make the unit last a lot longer. My project now is to insulate my old shop one wall at a time so the unit doesn't run at the 7.5kw level 24/7.....lol. I enjoyed your review by the way and tossed in a thumbs up as well.
Good call out of the delayed fan settings, definitely knew about it just didn't mention it! I did similar on the wire length to save cost, stuff isn't cheap! I think youll be pleased with it and I'm a big fan of the USA stamp on the box. There are cheaper options but I agree with your motto! Stay warm and good luck with the insulation. Stay warm up north and happy holidays. Thanks for tuning in! 🍻
Great heater. I installed a ceiling fan a hugger they call it. I leave it on low in reverse and my garage is toasty warm and the Hester comes on way less
Thanks for the review, very detailed. I have spent this winter building out a workshop in my double garage and using a small 220 construction heater which adds a ton to the electric bill plus it runs steady throughout the day, it cannot keep up to the cold we have been having for the past few weeks -20 to -35c. I may have to bite the bullet and get the king. Cheers!
Thanks for stopping in! It's been a great heater so far. It's been cycling more often with the below zero weather. Been doing some math and it'll likely cost me about $50-$60 this month. Not bad in my opinion with as cold as it has been. Stay warm! Cheers 🍻
The construction heaters I looked at were 4800 watts . If theres any way you can insulate your big doors and seal any gaps of draft , it will make a big difference . I even thought of a curtains that drew to the sides , but too hard to seal . Sure beats nothing , or packing fire wood .
Thorough and well presented. I'm looking to replace the old garage heater with something more efficient. I'll have to check the amp on the panel and the wiring. Thank you again.
Great video! Explained everything in detail, so there's no guessing work. Appreciate you taking a time. I think this unit is definitely going to work in my garage.
Great Electric Garage Heater Sir 👍😊 Your garage is better insulated than mine, I heat my garage with two heater baseboard on the floor, I would save money if I was doing it like yours Sir 👍😊 Your heater fan make your garage dryers faster too 👍😊 You have a great and neat Garage Sir 👍😊 Safety is important and I rather paid extra to make sure that the heater is safe to use !!! 🧐👍 Have a great warm week Sir and Great video Cheers 👍😊
Got the 12,500 watt king unit a year ago from Northern tool to heat my 26’x 36’ insulated pole barn shop with 10’ ceiling. Does a good job and quickly heating up the shop.
@@k6outdoors I use it several hours a week. My shop is insulated and stays around 40° or above all winter and gets up to 70 in no time when it’s in the teens or 20s outside. Did not notice much increase in my electric bill because I’m not out there to all the time. I mounted mine on a corner wall and I did all the electrical wiring myself, retired electrician, used a 70 amp breaker because the heater is rated at 52 amps.
This is exactly what I needed to read. I have a 30x28 that I want to heat and was thinking of going with the King 12500 watt. What is the climate where you live? I am in Central Illinois where winters sometimes get below zero but not often and not for long.
I’ve had one in my garage as supplemental heat for my heat pump when it’s real cold and it works great. Highly recommend, even as a stand alone source.
I have been looking for a garage heater for my videos I do in the winter. people say stay away from Mr buddy heater and the little green tank heaters. Love the ideal of heater up out if the way. Thanks for the review. Rich Mowers and Blowers OutDone
Great detail, imo brand matters, good brands stake their lives on a good product, the last thing they want is to sell crap, can't say that about off shore no name brands, also, you get what you pay for, buy cheap, get cheap. The best thing anyone can do for themselves is stick with a good brand, research it, then research it again, read reviews, and the best way to know if a product is good, is people, people are not afraid to let others know if they bought crap, or afraid to say it was the best thing they did.
I’m wanting to put one in a 12x48 kennel shelter. I like that it’s only 110. We get -temps and holding a 50 degree steady temp is what I’m looking for. Thanks
I have to reach out to King Electric. I have the 10,000 Watt model (KB2410-1-B2-ECO). My unit is 3 years old and that “self lubricated” fan is making loads of noise off and on now. I’m still under warranty so I’ll see what they say. It’s been solid otherwise in my 3 car garage.
Nice unit! I'll have to look into those. I want something for the workshop in my barn. I prefer an electric heater. That way I don't have to run propane lines or worry about wood stoves, etc.
@@Room1sixtyfive keep in mind that in many areas heat is really only needed between 4-6 months. Lp is great and all but then you have ducting to worry about and LP tank rental each year or a 1 time purchase amount. In a shop big enough to need 6 heaters in going to cost regardless what option choosen.
@@Room1sixtyfive gas is the way to go or a pellet stove coal stoves get mega hot. Electric ia expensive especially if you have a big garage mine almost 4 cars so elextric wouldnt happen unless it was a beast even then again electric cost to much.
A great video you have convinced me into installing my electric heater. I do a lot of favors for friends and family. They're really isn't much I cannot do and since I'm retired I have spare time on my hands. Where I live we don't get a ton of snow but it gets extremely cold. So far 4 months or so I stay out of the garage. I have a brick garage and of course no insulation except for the garage door itself. It's rather large and when I need to do something I hook up my kerosene heater. It does a nice job as far as heating a large space but there's two problems. First one is that you cannot control the heat. It's either on or it's off no in between. The second thing is when it's on it is extremely loud. I cannot even hear the TV or my music. So a few years back I had a friend of mine that I was able to get his Jeep back on the road a little money went out and bought me one of these electric heaters. I've had it sitting in the garage for at least four winters. I just did not think it could handle keeping the garage warm. Now after seeing your video I figure it's worth a shot. The only thing that it might cost me is for some electrical wire. I'm not sure if I have anything heavy enough for a electric heater. Great video thanks for sharing your experience.
Thanks for stopping in! I'm impressed with how well mine does. We just got through a 2 week snap of negative temps down to -25 but it kept up just fine. It's not going to be free to run but it's better than the alternative! Good luck and stay warm!
Did you consider infrared heaters at all? Almost surely more $ upfront, but possibly long-term savings on energy costs. I think I would need a few infrared units, so there's some ceiling space issue (I have some ceiling rack storage, stuff on hooks, etc.), and I'm not sure if they would heat my space evenly enough. Thanks for your review. Definitely considering that unit as an option.
I did not consider infrared as an option for the garage. Ive always seen people have good luck with this style of heater so i went that route. Thanks for stopping in!
Cool, thanks! I'm debating getting one of these electrical heater boxes for my shop. I'm using 2 oil-filled radiator space heaters now, they work ok but are expensive to run.
Thanks for stopping in! Thus far I've been impressed with the performance. It isn't free to run and is only costing me slightly more than dealing with the hassle of an LP heater. 🍻
Yeh I'm seeing you saying it's costing you $30 and under per month to heat the space, that's impressive. Are you always maintaining some temp in there, or only turn it on when you're in the shop?
@@pondacres i leave it set to the minimum thermostat temp of 45 degrees 24/7. I don't want my liquids freezing. I can't promise you'll see the same electrical usage but unless it is extremely cold out ( bellow zero F) the heater doesn't run a ton.
Great video, I am grateful for your efforts. I have a 24 x 26 UNinsulated garage. I am not looking to keep the garage warm 24/7, I am simply looking for a solution that will keep it warm enough in January and February so that I can work on the sleds or play my guitar without my fingers freezing off! Do you think this Eco unit could fulfill this requirement and if so what size would you recommend. Thanks so much!
I definitely think it will be enough to warm up, obviously less efficient since you have no insulation. What are your normal winter temps? Based on what I know a 7500 or 10000 watt would help point you in the direction of warmth. 10000 watts is going to put out about 25% more heat, just cost more.
I got a 6000 watt cheaper Canadian Princess Auto version . Its only manually adjustable , but Im only down there once in awhile , so I dont mind paying a little bit to get some heat , when I need it . I usually only want to dry out wet collector cars . It easily heats 20 x50 ft . I noticed youve got an insulated large door . Ive got thin-slat all metal roll up doors like on store fronts . They have to roll in a ball so you cant insulate them , and they are both 9ft-6in wide . Thats where I loose heat , but Im not complaining .
Dumb question but is start/stop the same as power on/off? I am looking for a heater that I can just use on weekends and I want to be able to just turn it off. I have been surprised that most electric heaters cannot actually turn off but just maintain the lowest heat setting, or its expected to be turned off by the breaker box. They are expensive now at $620.00 at the local Menards but if I can turn it off then its worth it. Great video BTW! Nice to see such a detailed review. The "you want to run it in summertime, you can, that's your life" cracks me up. I played that over and over until even my wife was cracking up.
Appreciate you stopping by! You are correct, the start/stop is on and off. If you turn it off it wont cycle untill you "start" it, it works great. It is more expensive then other heaters but i can say it is built really well and your supporting US jobs. Covid and supply chain issues seems to be driving up prices, 11% rebate at menards :). Glad you found the comment funny! Good luck on the heater hunt, stay warm!
Installed this exact heater and it lasted 1 year and broke. Also developed a loud fan noise and had major vibration. After this broke I ended up buying a different brand for under $100 and it’s way better.
Depends where you end up getting it and what size Amazon is more expensive. I ended up getting mine at Menards, and it was almost half the cost. I heat my garage 24/7 at 45 degrees to keep everything from freezing, so it was this or a gas heater that would work for me. With the price of LP and extra installation headache, I decided that electric would be the best route. For the past 3 years its been working great for me and I never have to go into the shop to check the temp, it can all be monitored from my phone. Like you said, to each there own and everyone has whats best for them. Thanks for stopping in!
Our Temps here has been 0 with wind chill of -26. My shop is 44x32 with 8ft walls and it is 40 degrees in it without heat on. I think this might work for me
Great video! I just purchased an enclosed storage unit for my RV. The space is 14x36 and is 18 feet tall. It’s insulated. I’m looking for a heater that will just keep the space from freezing in winter so I wouldn’t need to winterize my RV. So I’d probably keep it at 45 degrees. Couple questions: 1) Do you think this heater would do the job for my application? 2) Just to confirm, this heater has an auto thermostat? In other words, if I set it at 45 it will cycle on and off to maintain that temperature without me having to be present.
I cant say with 100% confidence that it would work (this size anyways). I have no problem with similar square footage but you are almost double the cubic foot due to the wall height. That being said i have no issue taking up to 70 degrees if i wanted. To answer your second question, yes it has the thermostat built in and turns on and off on its own to maintain the set temp. I hope this helps!
@@k6outdoors maybe not "swivel at will" but it has a bracket that mounts to the top of the heater box and if you install the bracket "crooked" (or in this case aligned to wherever you'd like to point it at), that can be done. You may technically be able to swivel a bit if the screw isn't reffed o too tight, but could be a risk of the unit becoming loose and falling
Thanks for the info, someone do that for me and they using an existing space on the electric box, I see this video and I was there to check and there is an space with the label garage heater and is 2 of 30 amp together, is that ok or not, ?? I have a 2 car garage and suppose to be heater going to heat all the garage, it work but really I don’t feel this is the best heater or the guys who installed don’t do it well, heater is away on and I spend about 100 per month more in my electric bill and I still needing more heat, is warm but no enough
Definitely not made in usa. I got one for free when the electronics shorted out. I made a new control board with an arduino. It does heat nice but the korean fan motor is 5 years old and the bearings are shot. At least it is a common HVAC motor so not hard to find another one.
Excellent well explained video..! Just curious though... Will the 7500 watt unit do well in -20..? I live in NW Wisconsin, our winter weather can be a challenge.
I live in iowa and although we don't get quite as cold as WI it is cold. Last year when we had the cold snap of -30 F it kept up with no problem. Obviously remember that it'll run more often and cost more. During that really cold month it cost me about $60 to keep the garage consistently at 45 and easily heated it up to 60-65 when I am out there working. Hope this helps and thanks for stopping in!
@@k6outdoors Thanks bud. I'm in the process of remodeling it. Its a 24x18 brick garage. I am framing the inside and will insulate... R13-15 in the walls with a blow in for the attic area and hope to achieve ar least an R40 minimum in the ceiling...
I mounted mine down low and treat it like a fireplace I also put a 3 speed room fan behind it and leave it on the fan made a big difference on my bill . The fans supplied in these crap their drawers after about 2 years plus they just dont move enough air through the unit to create good CFM . Other than that they are really good for a well insulated 20 ft x 20 ft shop .
I mini-split will work fine for cooling, however it is not sufficient in my area to heat because it gets so cold out. The closer to 0 degrees F you get the less heat the system produces. Thanks for stopping by.
@@futbol1972 i am talking outdoor temperature. Mininsplit units pull heat from outside air and there becomes a point where the system ends up not producing any heat. Depending on your location it might be a good solution
Couldn't tell you, this specific heater is a 34,000 btu heater so I'm guessing they assume you'll do the math. Mine heats my 24 x 24 garage with 9' ceilings easily
Depending on where you look, the price has doubled and even tripled from when you posted this (excellent!) video. $900-1400 range. For that money you’re close to a split mini heat pump that gives heat and AC, so this is too rich for me.
Appreciate the feedback on the video! Unfortunately the prices have gone up on the heaters. They still carry them local to me and they are more "reasonable" still, check out the link www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/heaters/electric-garage-heaters/king-electric-240v-heavy-duty-digital-forced-air-electric-garage-heater/kb2407-1-b2-eco/p-1461692447268.htm . Be careful of the mini split setup, as yes it will both heat and cool, but the closer to 0° F the outside ambient temp is the less heat it will be able to produce and it will have to work harder to produce that heat. I know a few people that have had to switch heating methods from a mini split as it was unable to heat the area they were wanting to. Here in Iowa it isn't uncommon to stay below 0 for weeks at a time and it is near impossible for the heat pump to generate any heat in those conditions. Thanks for stopping by!
@@k6outdoors thanks for the detailed response, most kind of you. I’m in the Boston area. We probably get fewer than 5 days and nights of single digits. I’ll probably get a 5kW heater for $200 for now, and see how it works this winter (20x22x8 garage, soon to be fully insulated).
Just got my ECO2S. Have the same size garage. Trying to decide wether to mount it in corner facing out diagonally or mount perpendicular to wall. Any input would be appreciated
Hey Mark, thanks for stopping in. I believe per the instructions they want you to mount it perpendicular to the wall. That being said I have mine mounted in the middle of the garage and pointing straight across the room and it works just fine. I would go with whatever you think looks and fits best in your application!
The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy th-cam.com/users/postUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!
Now iam wondering if I should get just one of this heaters or a window ac/heater for my fully insulated 3 car garage? If I get just a heater then I have to worry about getting something to cool it in the summer. I just don't know which way will be the way to go, two separate units one for the summer and one for winter or just find a unit that has both in it ac and heating? Garage is about 660sq ft and 8ft ceiling night, fullybinsulated even garage doors. Live in Clovis ca with a climate zone of 9b
Just out of curiosity with the mounting bracket. What type of fasteners did you use? Also the spacing on the hanging bracket. It looks to be a bit too wide to get all four into studs how did you remedy that?
I used lag screws to attach it to the wall. If I remember correctly I only used 2 screws on mine but it may be a different bracket. Let me take a look at it and get back to you.
@@k6outdoors Thanks I appreciate it. I got the heater up today. I used RSS construction screws 5/16 by 3 inch-long. Due to the spacing of the bracket holes. I had to make a three-quarter inch thick wood plate to go behind bracket to extend stud off to the side. It's rock-solid now my shop has drywall throughout. Now I got screws in all for holes for the bracket. The two on the left top and bottom driven completely through the wood plate into the stud. The two shorter ones on the right anchored solidly into the wood plate.
Ive done some sanding while having it on and havent had any issues. I can't say it's rated for it but I am sure it'll handle the occasional dust if cleaned. Thanks for stopping in
It maintained the temperature just fine when it was -18 F here. Obviously it is going to run more often and cost more but it stayed 45 or above then entire time. Ive been really pleased with its performance and it will cost extra on the electric bill but LP is going to cost similar for me. Even if if was 30% cheaper to go LP, the ease of electric is what sold it to me.
Thanks for stopping in. It's like any wall or ceiling hung unit, the general practice is to hang them in a safe spot out of the way. When you adjust the loovers you shoot the air downwards and are actually recirculating the hot air that rises, increasing your efficiency.
Wish I could give you a good answer tp this. King Electric makes high quality product that is built in the USA. If I had to make a guess, I would presume that plays into it. Thanks for stopping in!
Just purchased a week ago and it has ran great during that time. Today it seems to be giving incorrect temperature reading. Any ideas how yo fix or check sensor
Thanks for stopping by! I have not had an issue with this. What makes you think its reading off (what is the heater doing)? It would be good to check the room temperature with another thermometer (if you haven't yet) and see if they both stabilize over time. The heater being in direct sunlight, by a drafty wall or window and the heaters height off the ground its mounted can affect the accuracy / readout of the thermostat. Let me know and ill try to help with what I can.
@@k6outdoors I have had it set for 65 since we hooked it up, it was running today and doing great. Then I noticed it said 72 in the shop on the unit when my other thermometer said 63. I have it mounted to the wall , our ceiling is 8ft . I cranked the heat up and I would watch my other thermometer rise in temp but not on the unit itself , it stayed at 72.
King electric specifically calls out that it is designed for use as primary or supplemental heat sources in warehouses, stores or large garages spaces. Hope this helps.
@@k6outdoors dang, im looking for a solution for my garage, but my 30 breaker panel only has 2 spots left and not in positions for 2 phase support :/. Thanks tho
Meaning we lose power? Like any other automatic heat source, electricity is required. I do have a LP cabinet heater. Id be much more worried about the temp inside of the house at that rate. In either case I have a 10,000 kw generator.
@@oklahomachris6298 let me rephrase that, any automatic heating source requires electricity. Obviously wood stove, kerosene heaters ans lp cabinets heaters would work well. Good question though!
@@k6outdoors I’m in a place where I need to look into a generator. Good thing I found out generator on a home supposed to be 100% pay back if you sale...
Thanks for stopping in! Has it always done this or did it just start doing it? Keep in mind the only hot air coming out of the heater is from where the heating element will be.
I think it is all relative to what you are wanting. If you are wanting to buy something built in the USA with quality parts that has a 5 year warranty you might find it worth the money. If you are wanting a Chinese built heater with potentially lower quality components with a 1 year warranty for 1/2 the price, I think it is something you have to decide. I've had these heaters as a primary source of heat for my garages for 3 years now and they haven't let me down. Thanks for stopping in.

Thanks for the review, very detailed. I have spent this winter building out a workshop in my double garage and using a small 220 construction heater which adds a ton to the electric bill plus it runs steady throughout the day, it cannot keep up to the cold we have been having for the past few weeks -20 to -35c.
I may have to bite the bullet and get the king. Cheers!

The construction heaters I looked at were 4800 watts . If theres any way you can insulate your big doors and seal any gaps of draft , it will make a big difference . I even thought of a curtains that drew to the sides , but too hard to seal . Sure beats nothing , or packing fire wood .
Thanks for this, just installed mine tonight and it is rattling like crazy. Now I know there is something wrong with it.
Yep, something seems wrong then! Thanks for stopping in

Right on!!! Its been a great unit for me and I have been extremely pleased with the performance. Thanks for stopping by!
Great Electric Garage Heater Sir 👍😊 Your garage is better insulated than mine, I heat my garage with two heater baseboard on the floor, I would save money if I was doing it like yours Sir 👍😊 Your heater fan make your garage dryers faster too 👍😊 You have a great and neat Garage Sir 👍😊 Safety is important and I rather paid extra to make sure that the heater is safe to use !!! 🧐👍 Have a great warm week Sir and Great video Cheers 👍😊
Got the 12,500 watt king unit a year ago from Northern tool to heat my 26’x 36’ insulated pole barn shop with 10’ ceiling. Does a good job and quickly heating up the shop.
How do you like it and how does yours do on power usage?
@@k6outdoors I use it several hours a week. My shop is insulated and stays around 40° or above all winter and gets up to 70 in no time when it’s in the teens or 20s outside. Did not notice much increase in my electric bill because I’m not out there to all the time. I mounted mine on a corner wall and I did all the electrical wiring myself, retired electrician, used a 70 amp breaker because the heater is rated at 52 amps.
@@THF409 pretty straightforward install for sure! Impressed by how well they work
This is exactly what I needed to read. I have a 30x28 that I want to heat and was thinking of going with the King 12500 watt. What is the climate where you live? I am in Central Illinois where winters sometimes get below zero but not often and not for long.
@@Grastoke Southeastern Pennsylvania with temperatures in the teens and 20s sometimes. Shop doesn’t get below 40 degrees all winter.
I’ve had one in my garage as supplemental heat for my heat pump when it’s real cold and it works great. Highly recommend, even as a stand alone source.
Thanks for stopping by! So far I've been impressed in my first 2 years of ownership

It's a good one and I really like it! Thanks for stopping in
Great detail, imo brand matters, good brands stake their lives on a good product, the last thing they want is to sell crap, can't say that about off shore no name brands, also, you get what you pay for, buy cheap, get cheap. The best thing anyone can do for themselves is stick with a good brand, research it, then research it again, read reviews, and the best way to know if a product is good, is people, people are not afraid to let others know if they bought crap, or afraid to say it was the best thing they did.
I always say, buy once cry once!
Thank you. Good luck
I’m wanting to put one in a 12x48 kennel shelter. I like that it’s only 110. We get -temps and holding a 50 degree steady temp is what I’m looking for. Thanks
This is a 220-240 volt heater, it will however heat that area. Thanks for stopping in!
I have to reach out to King Electric. I have the 10,000 Watt model (KB2410-1-B2-ECO). My unit is 3 years old and that “self lubricated” fan is making loads of noise off and on now. I’m still under warranty so I’ll see what they say.
It’s been solid otherwise in my 3 car garage.
I would definitely reach out to support, they are great help. Thanks for stopping in!
@@k6outdoors Yeah I’m going to give them a holler on Monday.
Nice unit! I'll have to look into those. I want something for the workshop in my barn. I prefer an electric heater. That way I don't have to run propane lines or worry about wood stoves, etc.
Agree 100%with you, plug and play with electric!
Good Review.. Well explained and demo of the features
Thanks for stopping in! 🍻
Great video from beginning to end. I'm considering one (or 6) of these things for my big garage. But I'll wait until it is insulated.
Appreciate it! Thus far I've been really impressed with the electric heat
Me thinking this would be awesome in the barn.
@@Room1sixtyfive keep in mind that in many areas heat is really only needed between 4-6 months. Lp is great and all but then you have ducting to worry about and LP tank rental each year or a 1 time purchase amount. In a shop big enough to need 6 heaters in going to cost regardless what option choosen.
How big good luck get a big gas heater electric is expensive
@@Room1sixtyfive gas is the way to go or a pellet stove coal stoves get mega hot. Electric ia expensive especially if you have a big garage mine almost 4 cars so elextric wouldnt happen unless it was a beast even then again electric cost to much.
A great video you have convinced me into installing my electric heater. I do a lot of favors for friends and family. They're really isn't much I cannot do and since I'm retired I have spare time on my hands. Where I live we don't get a ton of snow but it gets extremely cold. So far 4 months or so I stay out of the garage. I have a brick garage and of course no insulation except for the garage door itself. It's rather large and when I need to do something I hook up my kerosene heater. It does a nice job as far as heating a large space but there's two problems. First one is that you cannot control the heat. It's either on or it's off no in between. The second thing is when it's on it is extremely loud. I cannot even hear the TV or my music. So a few years back I had a friend of mine that I was able to get his Jeep back on the road a little money went out and bought me one of these electric heaters. I've had it sitting in the garage for at least four winters. I just did not think it could handle keeping the garage warm. Now after seeing your video I figure it's worth a shot. The only thing that it might cost me is for some electrical wire. I'm not sure if I have anything heavy enough for a electric heater.
Great video thanks for sharing your experience.
Thanks for stopping in! I'm impressed with how well mine does. We just got through a 2 week snap of negative temps down to -25 but it kept up just fine. It's not going to be free to run but it's better than the alternative! Good luck and stay warm!
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for stopping in!
I have a smaller and older King, though it takes a long time to heat our three car garage.
A smaller unit definitely isn't going to have enough BTU to get the temp up very quick. Thanks for stopping by, happy new year!
Did you consider infrared heaters at all? Almost surely more $ upfront, but possibly long-term savings on energy costs. I think I would need a few infrared units, so there's some ceiling space issue (I have some ceiling rack storage, stuff on hooks, etc.),
and I'm not sure if they would heat my space evenly enough.
Thanks for your review. Definitely considering that unit as an option.
I did not consider infrared as an option for the garage. Ive always seen people have good luck with this style of heater so i went that route. Thanks for stopping in!
Cool, thanks! I'm debating getting one of these electrical heater boxes for my shop. I'm using 2 oil-filled radiator space heaters now, they work ok but are expensive to run.
Thanks for stopping in! Thus far I've been impressed with the performance. It isn't free to run and is only costing me slightly more than dealing with the hassle of an LP heater. 🍻
Yeh I'm seeing you saying it's costing you $30 and under per month to heat the space, that's impressive. Are you always maintaining some temp in there, or only turn it on when you're in the shop?
@@pondacres i leave it set to the minimum thermostat temp of 45 degrees 24/7. I don't want my liquids freezing. I can't promise you'll see the same electrical usage but unless it is extremely cold out ( bellow zero F) the heater doesn't run a ton.
Merry Christmas bud, early ik. But hope you and your family has an awesome Christmas and a great NewYears. 😏
Merry Christmas!
Great video, I am grateful for your efforts. I have a 24 x 26 UNinsulated garage. I am not looking to keep the garage warm 24/7, I am simply looking for a solution that will keep it warm enough in January and February so that I can work on the sleds or play my guitar without my fingers freezing off! Do you think this Eco unit could fulfill this requirement and if so what size would you recommend. Thanks so much!
I definitely think it will be enough to warm up, obviously less efficient since you have no insulation. What are your normal winter temps? Based on what I know a 7500 or 10000 watt would help point you in the direction of warmth. 10000 watts is going to put out about 25% more heat, just cost more.
I got a 6000 watt cheaper Canadian Princess Auto version . Its only manually adjustable , but Im only down there once in awhile , so I dont mind paying a little bit to get some heat , when I need it . I usually only want to dry out wet collector cars . It easily heats 20 x50 ft . I noticed youve got an insulated large door . Ive got thin-slat all metal roll up doors like on store fronts . They have to roll in a ball so you cant insulate them , and they are both 9ft-6in wide . Thats where I loose heat , but Im not complaining .
Yep a cheaper one will work as well! Insulated garage doors do wonders. Thanks for stopping in!
Thanks for the video & Go Hawks!

Great video! I bought one for my garage this week. My dad and I are installing it next week. Did you make a video on the wiring?
I did make another video just a few weeks ago installing the eco2s+ version (basically the same). Its really easy to do in my opinion, Check it out!
Dumb question but is start/stop the same as power on/off? I am looking for a heater that I can just use on weekends and I want to be able to just turn it off. I have been surprised that most electric heaters cannot actually turn off but just maintain the lowest heat setting, or its expected to be turned off by the breaker box. They are expensive now at $620.00 at the local Menards but if I can turn it off then its worth it.
Great video BTW! Nice to see such a detailed review. The "you want to run it in summertime, you can, that's your life" cracks me up. I played that over and over until even my wife was cracking up.
Appreciate you stopping by! You are correct, the start/stop is on and off. If you turn it off it wont cycle untill you "start" it, it works great. It is more expensive then other heaters but i can say it is built really well and your supporting US jobs. Covid and supply chain issues seems to be driving up prices, 11% rebate at menards :). Glad you found the comment funny! Good luck on the heater hunt, stay warm!
I got the 12500 Watt version weighs 32 lb
Installed this exact heater and it lasted 1 year and broke. Also developed a loud fan noise and had major vibration. After this broke I ended up buying a different brand for under $100 and it’s way better.
Did you contact the company and inquire on the 5 yr warranty? I'm at year 2 and is currently heating my garage without issues at -18 F
That heaters a grand? Damn. I would of put in a wood burner instead But to each there own. As long as ur happy.
Depends where you end up getting it and what size Amazon is more expensive. I ended up getting mine at Menards, and it was almost half the cost. I heat my garage 24/7 at 45 degrees to keep everything from freezing, so it was this or a gas heater that would work for me. With the price of LP and extra installation headache, I decided that electric would be the best route. For the past 3 years its been working great for me and I never have to go into the shop to check the temp, it can all be monitored from my phone. Like you said, to each there own and everyone has whats best for them. Thanks for stopping in!
Our Temps here has been 0 with wind chill of -26. My shop is 44x32 with 8ft walls and it is 40 degrees in it without heat on. I think this might work for me
I think it'll definitely help! Thanks for stopping in!
That's a large shop for a 7.5kw heater. What did you end up with and how is it performing?
Great video! I just purchased an enclosed storage unit for my RV. The space is 14x36 and is 18 feet tall. It’s insulated. I’m looking for a heater that will just keep the space from freezing in winter so I wouldn’t need to winterize my RV. So I’d probably keep it at 45 degrees.
Couple questions:
1) Do you think this heater would do the job for my application?
2) Just to confirm, this heater has an auto thermostat? In other words, if I set it at 45 it will cycle on and off to maintain that temperature without me having to be present.
I cant say with 100% confidence that it would work (this size anyways). I have no problem with similar square footage but you are almost double the cubic foot due to the wall height. That being said i have no issue taking up to 70 degrees if i wanted. To answer your second question, yes it has the thermostat built in and turns on and off on its own to maintain the set temp. I hope this helps!
@K6 Outdoors Awesome. Thank you for detailed response. Very much appreciated 🤝
Nice
Great video Thank you! Can I swivel the unit on the mount as needed? I may want to keep fan from directly blowing in a certain direction at times
Unfortunately with the way its designed you can not swivel it. There are basically screws in which it hangs on. That's for stopping in!
@@k6outdoors maybe not "swivel at will" but it has a bracket that mounts to the top of the heater box and if you install the bracket "crooked" (or in this case aligned to wherever you'd like to point it at), that can be done.
You may technically be able to swivel a bit if the screw isn't reffed o too tight, but could be a risk of the unit becoming loose and falling
Thanks for the info, someone do that for me and they using an existing space on the electric box, I see this video and I was there to check and there is an space with the label garage heater and is 2 of 30 amp together, is that ok or not, ?? I have a 2 car garage and suppose to be heater going to heat all the garage, it work but really I don’t feel this is the best heater or the guys who installed don’t do it well, heater is away on and I spend about 100 per month more in my electric bill and I still needing more heat, is warm but no enough
It will depend on the heater and its required breaker size
Definitely not made in usa. I got one for free when the electronics shorted out. I made a new control board with an arduino. It does heat nice but the korean fan motor is 5 years old and the bearings are shot. At least it is a common HVAC motor so not hard to find another one.
The are like everything else in USA. Made in the USA with global components. Thanks for stopping in!
What do you think for basement??? Is this good for basement???
@rahmatalvi it would work, it just depends what you are looking for in sounds level and how it looks visually. Thanks for stopping in
Useful vid. Go Hawks
Appreciate it! Go Hawks!
Excellent well explained video..! Just curious though... Will the 7500 watt unit do well in -20..? I live in NW Wisconsin, our winter weather can be a challenge.
I live in iowa and although we don't get quite as cold as WI it is cold. Last year when we had the cold snap of -30 F it kept up with no problem. Obviously remember that it'll run more often and cost more. During that really cold month it cost me about $60 to keep the garage consistently at 45 and easily heated it up to 60-65 when I am out there working. Hope this helps and thanks for stopping in!
@@k6outdoors Thank you for a quick reply..! I do beleive i will be ordering soon
@@houseoffire72 hope it works put well for you!
@@k6outdoors Thanks bud. I'm in the process of remodeling it. Its a 24x18 brick garage. I am framing the inside and will insulate... R13-15 in the walls with a blow in for the attic area and hope to achieve ar least an R40 minimum in the ceiling...
@@houseoffire72 I think youll be in good shape! I have a 24x24 shop with r13 in the walls and r30 in the ceiling! Good luck with the project
I mounted mine down low and treat it like a fireplace I also put a 3 speed room fan behind it and leave it on the fan made a big difference on my bill . The fans supplied in these crap their drawers after about 2 years plus they just dont move enough air through the unit to create good CFM . Other than that they are really good for a well insulated 20 ft x 20 ft shop .
Great feedback! 🍻
Wow amazon says over $1000 expensive..would not a minisplit be better and heats and cools??
I mini-split will work fine for cooling, however it is not sufficient in my area to heat because it gets so cold out. The closer to 0 degrees F you get the less heat the system produces. Thanks for stopping by.
@@k6outdoors I think the coldest it gets in my garage is like 35-40 degrees f
@@futbol1972 i am talking outdoor temperature. Mininsplit units pull heat from outside air and there becomes a point where the system ends up not producing any heat. Depending on your location it might be a good solution
So you think you could make the video longer
I certainly could, thanks for stopping in.
Why do these companies state their heater coverage in square feet, not cubic feet (number too small)?
Couldn't tell you, this specific heater is a 34,000 btu heater so I'm guessing they assume you'll do the math. Mine heats my 24 x 24 garage with 9' ceilings easily
What county in Iowa are you. Just noticed your IOWA outline. Just bought a 15000watt so checking out your vid
About 20 minutes ish from Iowa City! Thanks for watching. I think your gonna like the heater
Depending on where you look, the price has doubled and even tripled from when you posted this (excellent!) video. $900-1400 range. For that money you’re close to a split mini heat pump that gives heat and AC, so this is too rich for me.
Appreciate the feedback on the video! Unfortunately the prices have gone up on the heaters. They still carry them local to me and they are more "reasonable" still, check out the link www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/heaters/electric-garage-heaters/king-electric-240v-heavy-duty-digital-forced-air-electric-garage-heater/kb2407-1-b2-eco/p-1461692447268.htm . Be careful of the mini split setup, as yes it will both heat and cool, but the closer to 0° F the outside ambient temp is the less heat it will be able to produce and it will have to work harder to produce that heat. I know a few people that have had to switch heating methods from a mini split as it was unable to heat the area they were wanting to. Here in Iowa it isn't uncommon to stay below 0 for weeks at a time and it is near impossible for the heat pump to generate any heat in those conditions. Thanks for stopping by!
@@k6outdoors thanks for the detailed response, most kind of you. I’m in the Boston area. We probably get fewer than 5 days and nights of single digits. I’ll probably get a 5kW heater for $200 for now, and see how it works this winter (20x22x8 garage, soon to be fully insulated).
Just got my ECO2S. Have the same size garage. Trying to decide wether to mount it in corner facing out diagonally or mount perpendicular to wall. Any input would be appreciated
Hey Mark, thanks for stopping in. I believe per the instructions they want you to mount it perpendicular to the wall. That being said I have mine mounted in the middle of the garage and pointing straight across the room and it works just fine. I would go with whatever you think looks and fits best in your application!
The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy th-cam.com/users/postUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!
Now iam wondering if I should get just one of this heaters or a window ac/heater for my fully insulated 3 car garage? If I get just a heater then I have to worry about getting something to cool it in the summer. I just don't know which way will be the way to go, two separate units one for the summer and one for winter or just find a unit that has both in it ac and heating?

Just out of curiosity with the mounting bracket. What type of fasteners did you use? Also the spacing on the hanging bracket. It looks to be a bit too wide to get all four into studs how did you remedy that?
I used lag screws to attach it to the wall. If I remember correctly I only used 2 screws on mine but it may be a different bracket. Let me take a look at it and get back to you.
@@k6outdoors Thanks I appreciate it. I got the heater up today. I used RSS construction screws 5/16 by 3 inch-long. Due to the spacing of the bracket holes. I had to make a three-quarter inch thick wood plate to go behind bracket to extend stud off to the side. It's rock-solid now my shop has drywall throughout. Now I got screws in all for holes for the bracket. The two on the left top and bottom driven completely through the wood plate into the stud. The two shorter ones on the right anchored solidly into the wood plate.
Does it have to stay running?? Can you turn it off when you’re not in the garage??
It can easily be turned off whenever you would like it not to run. Thanks for stopping in
One question how does it do with saw dust in the air?
Ive done some sanding while having it on and havent had any issues. I can't say it's rated for it but I am sure it'll handle the occasional dust if cleaned. Thanks for stopping in
So I live in MN so our temps can be quite similar sometimes, when it goes negative how well does this keep the temps up in the garage?
It maintained the temperature just fine when it was -18 F here. Obviously it is going to run more often and cost more but it stayed 45 or above then entire time. Ive been really pleased with its performance and it will cost extra on the electric bill but LP is going to cost similar for me. Even if if was 30% cheaper to go LP, the ease of electric is what sold it to me.
Why do people put these things so high up if hot air rises
Thanks for stopping in. It's like any wall or ceiling hung unit, the general practice is to hang them in a safe spot out of the way. When you adjust the loovers you shoot the air downwards and are actually recirculating the hot air that rises, increasing your efficiency.
The other reason is to keep it off the floor to avoid possible combustible fumes. That's what they recommend at least 6 feet off the floor.
@@markbrinton6790 makes sense

Thanks for stopping by! I have not had an issue with this. What makes you think its reading off (what is the heater doing)? It would be good to check the room temperature with another thermometer (if you haven't yet) and see if they both stabilize over time.

I think it is all relative to what you are wanting. If you are wanting to buy something built in the USA with quality parts that has a 5 year warranty you might find it worth the money. If you are wanting a Chinese built heater with potentially lower quality components with a 1 year warranty for 1/2 the price, I think it is something you have to decide. I've had these heaters as a primary source of heat for my garages for 3 years now and they haven't let me down. Thanks for stopping in.
