is the fan thermostatically controlled? where is the thermostat located? what are the on/of temp for the fan to kick on/off?

Good product. Thermostat is attached to the fan body itself, not as pictured in ad, but still works fine anyway. Kicks on when temp in the compartment reaches about 80 degrees (F). I really believe this little fan could save me a frig, from overheating. Takes a little time to install (under frig vent cover). I did my own, took about 3 hours.

There are actually two thermostats for the fan. One is in the fan itself and turns on at 100F. There is a separate thermostat which is taped to the fridge burner tube and closes or opens the flow of electricity, that one turns on at 140F. Both thermostats need to be on to activate the fan. I had issues getting the fridge burner tube thermostat close enough to the burner to reach 140F so I just wired in a manual switch in place instead for that one.The fan works great. The difficult part of the install for me was that I had to remove/reinstall the fridge vent at the roof. That was the only location where I had enough space to fit the fan.

The thermistor is located in the fan housing notThe most optimal place in my opinion so I remove it from the housing and placed it near the condenser coilThe operational temp is on at 150 F off at 130 +10 are the specs I found.Hope this helps youRegards

I concur with the others. You cannot. You can program it to turn the heat or cool on or off but no just the fan itself. The heat or cool will cool kicks in as well.

On at 85 yes but mine seems to go off at about 80, not sure where you saw the off at 65. I have my office in an attic room so I can hear when this fan goes on/off. I have found no way to adjust the on/off temp.

The fan is in the "Timer Mode". This can be set from 1-16 hours. If the timer was turned on and the fan was not running at the time, the fan will not start until the timer turns off. If the timer mode is turned on when the fan IS running, it will run until the set time has laps. To get out of this mode, push the MODE key at any time. Look at the fan digital display, by pressing the Mode button, it will show, 1,2,3 this is fan speeds, press the Mode button again and the display will show, A1,A2,A3 this is in the Auto Mode and the thermostat will turn on or off the fan at a given temperature, 1=low, 2=med, 3=high. good luck

Yep, you can turn the fan on or set it to to automatic. You can also control the speed.

The stat has a digital section that allows you 3 options, "turn on heat OR cool OR off" independently with the push on the screen. Another section allows you to turn on the fan automatically to maintain the temp entered OR the fan on always OR off totally. You can also set a schedule to have the heat/cool come on at certain times and days. Hope this helps.

I emailed CS and here is their response "The target room temperature mode is a function which indicates to the fan the temperature which it should automatically turn on or off. This mode should be activated when the thermostat on the fan shows a temperature which you would like the fan to remain at. For example, if the temperature in the room (and on the fan thermostat) is 70 degrees and the target room temperature mode is activated at that time, the fan will then turn off if the temperature drops below 70 degrees or remain active if the temperature raises above 70 degrees." So Basically press the auto button when the fan has cooled down the room to the desired temp, the fan will then automatically adjust to keep the room at that temp as long as the auto button is still on.

you have 2 screens one for fan to set it to on or auto. The other for heat or cool. Set either one to a temp that will make sure it won't come on and the fan to on and it will run continuously.

It is not temperature controlled. There is just an on/off switch. I love this register fan. It is far superior to to the several other brands I've tried even those with supposed temperature control. It is solidly built, very quite (not silent), and moves a ton of air.

The fan has four settings...Off..low speed...medium speed...and high speed. It doesn't turn on or off automatically. Hope this helps

"Fan Off Temperature" means that the fan should turn off at that temperature. This is not a AC / cooling thermostat. Please read my review (know how this unit works) posted by Monica J. on April 3, 2014 to learn exactly how this unit works.

Yes, there is a remote control that does on/off, fan speed, and the timer. It is an excellent fan.

You can manually turn on and off the fan if you wish, without heat or cool being activated. But there is no way to program it to turn on ONLY the fan. You set high and low temps within each of the four programming times of day and the start and end times of those time frames. It will not turn on the fan automatically without heating or cooling. It does a great job and you can program the four time frames differently for each day of the week, if you wish. We love it and have two of them.

The thermostat is the center knob. It will turn the fan on or off according to the way you set it.

There is a pull chain that controls the on/off and fan speed. We have our fan mounted in the garage from the ceiling. It is provides a very good airflow and would likely be too strong indoors if run on high speed. I do love the fan. I wish I would have bought it years ago.

No the fan on only, has no program available. The Heat or Cool settings are programrable.

Yes it does. There are 4 settings. OFF, ON, Heat and Cool. With the ON setting the fan remains on. Use HEAT in winter or COOL in the summer. Then adjust the knob for how hot or cold it has to be before the fan kicks on.
