What mode does the heater need to be in for the thermostat to work? We've had it in the low setting and set at 68,but it's still running when it's 76

If the heater is set on LOW, it will run continuously. Pressing the MODE button to the thermostat setting will allow for you to set your desired temperature. If you have questions or concerns, please call us at 1-800-546-5637. We're open Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 8 PM Eastern.

I'm not sure. I gave up on this heater after a couple days. It was weak. I am all about the Honeywell HZ-7300. Good luck!

My heater does the same.I had two since the first broke. I think their thermostats just dont work well.

No this is how the heater operates. Mine does the same thing.1) If set at 72F, it will heat up to 73, then stop. (It's still powered on, just not heating).2) The room drops to 71F. 3) Then once the display drops to 70F, the heater restarts.4) Repeat cycle.This cycle can take a long time for a larger room like a bedroom. It's a good design because limiting the ON/OFF cycles for heaters extends their life.Refer to the similar Question 1 for a similar response.

The thermostat retains the last settings if that is your question. If power is out, your HVAC is out of commission anyway :-)

There are two heat settings; low and high. They probably correspond to 1500 and 750 watts output. The thermostat will work with either setting.

The adjustment for temperature leaves a lot to be desired. You are better off having an electrician install a thermostat on it. On the low settings mine would still turn on in my garage, with the garage door open, when it was 80 degrees outside.

Sounds like a wiring fault to me (perhaps a 120V heater hooked up to 220V?). I've used this thermostat with an oil-filled heater with excellent results, and with other, non-oil-filled heaters, with no funny business of any kind.

I had the same problem. I first replaced the over protection switch and the hi limit switch. heater then came on and as you have it just ran hot even in air dry, so I replaced the thermostat and the heater still remain hot and brightly glowing. I talked to a repairman and he said to check the heater for a short to ground. It was shorted. Replaced the element that only had one of the ceramic element holders broke. This fixed my problem. I hope this helps.

Beverly, you didn't state your model or how old the unit, but one common weak link is the on/off switch may be faulty, the second primary failure mode would be the heater coil/thermostat and would generally be cheaper to buy a new one than try and fix. If you have a handyman around he should be able to check out the on/off switch.

the only way it wil not run is to turn the tempature all the way to the bottom , or to you left. You set the desired tempature you want with that switch and you can set the control on the right to low or high tempature as it blows the heat out. If you turn the temp control all the way to your right and it doesn't come on, something is not working right and should be returned. One other thought is you might check your breaker box to see if it needs resetting as that circuit might become overloaded with the heater on it and kick it off.

113 degrees is the lowest I could set. The temperature indicator may start at 78, since that is what it indicates the temp is at power on, and I think the room is colder.

I returned mine. Could not get the thermostatd to trigger the unit back on when dropping below temperature. Tried 2 different units and had the same issue.

I checked on my unit and the control goes down to 60 degrees.I have never had it lower than 72.I live in Houston and the room stays cold when the A/C is running.

You can use the thermostat on the low setting, but the automatic shutoff and turn on will not work as described in the instruction booklet.

Turn heater on and let it run for a minute to produce heat. Then touch the set Button&gt; It will display the temp. &gt; the heater is set at and flash. Use the up and down buttons to set desired temp. Then touch the set button to lock it in. This heater does not constantly display temp, the panel will go off, but the heater is still on the auto setting. I do not like this heater as much as my higher end Comfort ZONE Heater, but for the price it does OK. There should be no codes, sometimes if you set the timer the 1hr looks like a code, if you want to use the timer, follow the instructions, they didn,t to to bad regarding that feature... Hope this Helped !

Norm, did you find a thermostat that can offer what you were looking for? I'm looking for the same thing, 77 in the summer and 68 in the winter. I haven't seen one yet that can allow 4 daily temperature changes while maintaining seperate profiles for summer and winter

I think you might have to check your Freon first. Does the temperature really gets to 76 in your bedroom?

Is this a new thermostat? If so, I'd return it. I have the identical unit and mine adjusts to at least 80. There is nothing in the instructions to explain why you would be having the problem. Also, Honeywell has a good website for instruction PDF downloads.
