Quite frankly, I don't know. When I fry I move everything outdoors. I don't like the lingering odors. I would imagine the heat from the oil would transmit pretty well to the exterior surface since there is not much space between the oil resevoir and the exterior housing.

The outer shell is separate from the inner container that holds the oil. So, there is about a half inch of space separating the inside container from the outer shell. The heating element is immersed in the oil and does not touch the bottom of the unit. The sides get warm to the touch. It is quite safe for a kitchen countertop.

I don't remember any specific details (I would download the manual at the manufacture's website). The only thing that gets hot is about the top one foot or so.

No not too hot to touch on outside---You use the handle. It's a great product.

Don't know about heat since mine was outside. Keep an eye on it for air leakage or you'll have a wet floor if inside.

Mine runs pretty warm but haven't had any problems with it. After I finally figured out how to pass thru my satellite signal I shut it down more often to cool.

The unit doesn't get hot - approximately 100 to 110 degree's when in use if kept well ventilated. Under an auto seat is more then enough space for good ventilation. Might be a good idea to occasionally check that the vents in unit haven't somehow gotten blocked. (Very small amount of heat when you consider a humans normal temp 98.6)

The base does get hot during use. For stability sakes, I would keep it on level ground.

Has some heat for sure. I have a 3 zone system with 5 zones in zone 1, and 2 each in zones 2 and 3. Absolutely capable of driving all 3 but there are times when I walk in the wiring closet and its 5 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. The thing is a big box with a lot of heat. I recommend some type of exterior fan and definitely some room for the unit to breathe if no fan.

The unit is vented to the outside, any AC unit generates heat as it cools- it would not be efficient otherwise to vent the unit in the room it is cooling.

It does get hot, I would suggest a small fan and vent like on a computer tower

The unit will cool down to 61 degrees. It is a reliable unit that I have been very pleased with.

As long as the hose is vented outside to blow the hot air out, it's fine. Mine gets quite warm too, as it pulls the warmth out of the air in the room & moves it outside.

I'm sitting here in my room writing this while the unit is on, and I'm cooling down after sweltering in 90+ degree heat that the rest of the house is melting in. So, I'd say the unit is very efficient. This is my second summer with it and it hasn't disappointed me yet.

when I've had hot liquids in it, the outside will get a little warm but its not really noticeable. Never had any kind of issue or thought about it until Amazon sent me this question.
