Works great, but noisy.

This heater is great for a former garage-turned playroom/pantry/laundryroom in Northern AZ. I did have to send the first one back for a faulty thermostat, but this one has been in operation for 2 winters, this being the third. A&W took back the first one with no hassles and no extra shipping. They sent out a new one before I even sent the faulty one back, which nobody does these days! I keep coming back and sending my friends here as well.
MY insulated,attached garage is 22 wide X 32 deep with 10 foot ceilings. It is partially heated by solar panels so it is easy to raise the temp from 41 degrees to the 60's with this heating unit. One impressive thing was the electric fan motor. I expected the fan motor to be a typical cheap bathroom fan. The motor appears to be similar in construction to the cooling fan I just replaced in a 32 year old Whirlpool refridgerator. Very heavy duty!

This heater is compact and does a good job. There isn't much to say about an electric heater since 100% of the energy turns into heat. I mounted it about 7' off the floor and the noise is acceptable. The thermostat turns the heater on and off. It hangs on the wall. Construction quality is only fair. Two of the five fan blades were bent forward and hitting the supports for the heating element. The fan would not turn until I disassembled enough of the unit that I could reach the fan blades and bend them back into position. Once I did that, the heater began working well.
