Does this have an internal thermostat to turn the heater off when "its warm"? If so, what is the turn off temperature?

Adding one comment to the earlier answer. If your water level gets low (this is a fairly tall heater so you should never go below about 6" of water) and the outside temp is low, there is no safety turnoff. So if it's 30 out and the livestock drink the tank down to a couple inches of water, the heater will glow red until you add water. Not a problem with the product since it can't tell if it is surrounded by cold water or air, just a tip to keep the water at a minimum depth so you don't waste power.

I had to ask the manufacturer the same question and the reply was "yes, on at 32* and off at approximately 45*" It is interesting that in none of their literature is this mentioned. I'd think that might be something a potential buyer might like to know. I have not verified the temperature range but this is what I was told by the manufacturer. So far however the heater is doing it's job very nicely.

What if I want it to heat the water to 125 F? Is there any way to adjust the shutoff temperature?

I'm not sure about the 45* temp turn off, I checked it because the temp was in the 40's and I thought it automatically turned off above 32* and it was still on. I will just unplug it when it's above freezing.

It does have an internal thermostat but I don't know what the turn on/off temperatures are.

When you install it you also install a thermostat that has a sensor that goes under the tiles with the heater. You set the desired temperature and it will shut off when the temp is reached. I like the Honeywell with the timer so that it automatically comes on off when I want it to.

The others are correct, there is no thermostat. This is a "Bucket heater" and isn't meant to run non-stop. I am using mine to heat a fish pond. O have it isolated in a shallow corner and it is keeping the water above 60F. Fish are doing OK. I have an underwater light system and I placed some lights near the heater to attract the fish to the warmer water. You need to get a good timer and set it to go on and off. DO NOT let it run 24/7. It WILL burn out. This is my 2nd one. I set mine to run for 8 hrs over night and on/off every 2 hrs during the day. This will allow the unit to cool down and reduce the chances of a hot spot burning the element out. The others are correct, there is no thermostat.

Hi I like your user name. The heater is 120 I thought it was 240 so didn't work. I don't think it has a thermostat but not sure. We have one on the wall so did not pay attention to it.

No thermostat, just 2 settings, high and low. It works very well if you are about 1 foot away.But I have never tried leaving it on with door closed in my very small bathroom.

If you set it to 73, it should turn off when the ambient temperature is 75. The temperature you see on the display when you're not adjusting it is supposed to be the room temperature. I do know from personal experience that this heater has a lot of problems and is not one that I would buy again.

It has a thermostat. The doc says the thermostat range is 40-70 degrees, but I've just left mine at the minimum setting.

There is no on-off switch nor thermostat. It is simply ON when plugged in and OFF when unplugged. If you want to control the temperature you can use a lamp dimmer that Home Depot sells.

The thermostat does not have a timer, but it does shut itself off at a pre-set temperature.

You can set your desired temperature, and there is a thermostat that turns it off when temp in room is right. Great little heater for one room. Using it a lot during this transitional weather. It also has an automatic shut off if it is moved or falls.

This heater does have thermostatic control. You have the option of setting the heater from 60 to 85°. You also have the option of using the timer.

Unfortunately, no, it does not. I have accidentally shut the light switch that this is powered to and it will not come back on when I turn the switch back on. You have to turn it back on and reset the temperature BUT it is still a great heater. I have it in my son's room and it really keeps the temp steady at 70 degrees. And setting the temp is very easy. Hope this helps!

The dial on my unit spans -10 degrees F ~ 100 degrees F. I use it in an non-insulated 24 x 24 garage set at approximately 60 degrees F, I believe the thermostat uses a 10 degree window. If set at 60 degrees F, the heater turns on around 55 degrees F and turns off around 65 degrees F.

There is an on off switch . There is also a thermostat to regulate temp but I have not used it.

There is not a temperature that shows on the heater. When it feels to warm I just turn mine down. I have been very satisfied with that. It works well and does not cost a lot to use.

There is no true On/Off setting. If you want interior temps to fall below 40F, you would need to turn the unit off at the circuit breaker.

This heater has a control knob with numbers. One cannot set it to a specific temp, however with use, one lerns the setting that he (she) finds the most comfortable and it works well no matter what the ambient temperature. I feel that this unit is well worth the price. Cliff
