When the SRCOOL12K is plugged, it will restore temperatures to the same point it was at and will automatically turn back on when power is restored. If you are looking for remote monitoring and control of the SRCOOL12K, consider looking at its accessory the SRCOOLNET.

No it will not turn back on after a power outage, but you can set it up to turn on and off with an internal timer that comes with this unit,

skully, I have owned mine since February and I have frequent power outages. I have not once had to touch it when the power comes back on. It's pinned at 70*

Yes... it will turn back on to the EXACT settings as before the power went out!!!

It's more likely to overheat when the power switch it not pressed firmly. Thermal reset is the other button near the power switch. It's not a GFCI, but an indication of high operating temps. It can be good to take break and let the splitter cool down.

There is no actual "off" switch. If you plan to have a temp lower then what the stat is used for, I would suggest another model or add a switch to it.

Let it cool for 20 minutes and then push the thermal reset button. It is an unlabeled button below the power switch on my unit. I have only activated it once...after two hours of continuous use on cedar logs up to 18 inches in diameter. Unit restarted after cool down but shutdown again after 30 minutes. I was quite worried at that point but it ran the next day and a dozen times subsequently without incident. It is a beast!

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.

I would go on line to the company and ask for one. The remote that mine came with only worked for a couple of weeks then it quit. I tossed it out and we just use the switches. Turn on the back power button first then push the front power button to on, then set your temp. Make sure your electrical circuit is large enough to handle this unit. It should have its own plug and heavy duty circuit. If the cord gets warm after using it for a while, your circuit is not heavy enough.

No reason why not, Except! If the power goes out this switch will reset to the off position when power comes back on so you will have to turn your switch on again. If all you are using are surge protectors, no problem. If the are battery back up's then this would definitely cause your systems to crash if you were no there to turn the switch back on.

Hello Sunshine007, Thank you for contacting Tools for Wellness. The unit needs to always stay on in order for it to be as efficient as possible. The successfulness of the units is the constantly filtered/ionized air by the ceramic core and unplugging the unit will recontaminate the room that you have the unit in. The top of the unit will be warm/hot to the touch. What your experiencing is normal. Please ensure that the unit is on flat surface, is not underneath any shelving units or is not right next to wall/furniture. A space of at least 1 foot needs to be free around the unit.

Hello. Once power is turned off, this unit will have to manually turned on by the "ON" button located on the front panel.

Once you have it set up and running, I see no reason why you could not turn it on and off plugged into a WEMO unit. I have my dog on a timer. So it gets shut off every day. And when powered on again it works just fine. There is nothing to adjust manually when power is restored.

It is my understanding that it is supposed to be set then it turns off once it reaches said temp. Then when it drops it turns back on. This model I bought did not. I'm sorry about the vauge answer. I was just disappointed with the initial faults, I had to send it back.

Unit has an auto changeover mode, that will automatically switch between heating and cooling modes as needed. However for that mode the temperature settings are controlled by the microprocessor based on popular heating and cooling comfort temperatures which can not be adjusted. If you select either of the heating or the cooling modes, then you can set the system for 85F and never have to touch again. It will restart even after a power failure with these settings. But you would need to change the mode manually between heating or cooling once a year between seasons.

Did this event already occur to you? It has not to me. However, if the surge created from all of your power coming on at once did not short out your device, then it should power back on automatically. Personally, I usually unplug all important devices when the power goes off.

We use ours on our motor home. We unplug the unit when not in use. As far as we remember there is not an on/off switch. Once you plug it in it immediately starts heating and only takes a few minutes for hot water. When you use the 6 gallons it will reheat quickly. When we are home we are not running electricity to the motor home so the unit stays off. We have had our unit about 2 years and are very happy with it.

I have the 5 unit pack with the remote; there is no on/off switch on the socket itself. When unit is on and the power is interrupted, it turns off. When the power is restored it is necessary to use the remote to turn the unit back on again.

I turned the remote switch on, unplugged it from the power source, waited about 30 seconds, and the remote switch reverted to the off position when the power source was plugged back in. The remote had to be pushed again to go into the on position once power was restored. Good question. It made curious to try it.

Yes, there are three modes, High, Low & Auto. In the auto mode you set the desired temp & it turns off when it reaches the temp that you have set for it. It will automatically turn back on when the room temp reaches 2 degrees below your setting. You need to press the power button again when you plug it back in. It is in the off mode when you plug it back in. When you press the power button after plugging it back in, it will remember the temp settings you set for it.
