What is the minimum temperature at which the heat pump will still work? Also - Can an extended warranty be purchased with this?

Minimum temperature for heat? I use this in home office in 1 walled off bay in un-insulated 3 car Garage. Tonight it was 52 degrees F when I turned it on and after about 45 minutes its 64. I don't see why it'd have a minimum but may not want to try below 32? Read the manual? Might be specified... Extended warranties: Dunno....in general I never use them but have recently started for my kids cell phones but nothing else. This might be a good candidate though ...it works great after a few years but if something breaks its probably not repairable...(spare parts from China??? no Maytag repairmen on this thing???)

This machine has been a total disappointment and does not work well at any temperature

I apologize I am not able to be of more help, but we have only used this inside convention centers for the air conditioning aspect of the unit never the heating aspect. As for the extended warranty you should be able to call the manufacturer to inquire. Again, I apologize I am unable to be of more assistance.

I'm afraid I can't help you with these questions. I usually operate the AC when the outside temperature exceeds 80 degrees F. I do not recall the offer of an extended warranty; I would check with the seller or the manufacturer.

I live in southern Florida, so I have very little experience with the heat pump, so far. I don't remember about the extended warranty, but didn't buy it. The only thing I would do differently is buy the next level larger than was advised in the scale. Maybe the temperature change would be faster.

Hi, Glad to assist :). There is a 1 year manufacturer's warranty for this heater. I hope this helps and thanks for looking :). Thanks, O-Ion

The literature says "limited lifetime" warranty. I'm not sure exactly what's covered and what's not, but I will tell you this is a quality pump for a good price. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat!

I "believe it " to be a year long warranty, though I can speak from personal experience on their reliably. The first one I boughthas lasted 9 years and still works fine, so I knew I could order 2 more for the house I live in without heat to heat the whole house all winter. So far working fine. Hope this helps

Hi travis, We have contacted the manufacturer, and they do not have a specific temperature range where these coolers are specified to work in. However, the representative that I spoke to feels that you will have no problems with this cooler at these temperatures and that it should work fine. I hope this helps

I have it at the lowest setting. I heat a small space which has thick 4" foam insulation (my pump house is about 4' x 4' x 4'). The thermometer usually reads about 60° F. A little warmer than I need, but acceptable. The lowest setting is supposed to come on at 35° F. I also have a second heater for back up.

I have mine in the pump house plugged into a thermo-cube outlet that turns on at 35 F and off at 45F. I have the heater set at 750W and low and it works fine.

I can not answer the question as I live in Austin, TX. My unit is installed inside the home that has an annual temperature variation from 68 degrees in the winter to 80 degrees in the summer. The unit has functioned flawlessly since I installed it. I am very happy with the unit. My original unit lasted 12 years plus.

I have ran my pump for 6 to 8 hours at a time with no heat problems! I did however upgrade the power cord to a 12 ga. wire.

Per Mfg. instructions this pump is not recommended for temp. over 120 degrees F

The instructions say that it is safe to use up to 500 degrees. I guess caution should be used above that temperature as it may void the warranty.

Mine is working great! If you maintain the pump, like winterizing it, should work for several years,,,

No, I just tried and the lowest temperature it can be set to is 55 deg F. I read that this is to prevent damage to certain heating equipment.

This is merely a warmer, not a steamer. As advertised, ours maintains a temperature of 155 degrees, which is perfect for our needs. I believe that our unit was supplied with a 90 day warranty; however, we've had it in use for over one year without any problems.

Unfortunately... no. Because the unit is a HEAT PUMP unit (rather than a STRAIGHT ELECTRIC unit), it can only be used when temperatures are above 45 Degrees Fahrenheit. I learned that the hard way (the manufacturer fails to explain that fact in the instruction manual). You would have to purchase a STRAIGHT ELECTRIC unit in order for the unit to be capable of heating in those types of temperatures. It is best to purchase a 230 volt unit if you need to use it it those types of temperatures. Usually the straight electric 230 volt units provide 7,000 to 12,000 btus of heat per hour.

I live In No. Utah, It has been working great since I installed it, March 2014, I am in a Manufactured Home which has an outside access door that was vented so I sealed and insulated the door and cut a vent thru the inside wall, also I put a light under it for a little more heat on cold days (I turn it off on warmer days), the average tempura here November thru February can get down to -10 to -20. This is My 3rd tank less water heater, the 1st was a Bosch gas and lasted 5 yrs. Until the sediment in the water plugged the igniter and Bosch would not even talk to Me about parts or repairs, the 2nd was an electric brought Sears, it lasted 11 months when I called them they said it was under warranty and sent a guy to look at he said he had never seen one and didn't know anything about them and since the Electrician that installed it didn't work for sears that it wasn't under warranty, So I did a lot of research on this one and have been very happy so far, also I did install a water filter in the line before the heater to catch the sediment. Hope this helps You.

Dear Aaron, Thank you for your interest in Robertson Worldwide. The RSW140T12120 has a minimum starting temperature of 0F/-18C. There should be no issues as long as the unit is operated within the parameters listed on the product spec sheet. Additional specs can be found on the Amazon product page or www.robertsondirect.com. Sincerely, Brian K. Robertson Worldwide
