Does this heater have a standing pilot light? Can it be configured to work with a simple wall thermostat?

it does have a standing pilot however it can not be used with a thermostat because it has a manual control knob to turn it on and off.

Yes it has a standing pilot light. I don't know about configuring it to a wall thermostat.

Yes there is. The small front panel flips down for setting your temperature, current date, and heating schedule. Additionally, the body of the unit can also be easily detached from the wall mount so you can access an 'on/off' switch as well as switches for Fahrenheit/Celsius and 12/24 hour clock display. My unit came with the heater setting in the OFF position, so be sure to open yours up and check before installing and assuming that it'll be ON. The instructions are pretty good at explaining how to manage all of the settings.

yes. it has 3 options: low heat, medium heat, and full power (low + medium on), and a mechanical thermostat. so, if you put it on a timer when turned on, it should work. one important thing to watch out for, though- heaters use a lot of power, so you'd want a timer that can handle that kind of service load. i think most timers are designed for lights and other low power loads.

Yes. Also, the pilot light can easily be extinguished if it is windy outside, causing the heater to turn off.

Yes it does. The bottom slide-switch powers it off completely. Or, if you still want to see the temp in the room, during summer months, just keeping the thermostat turned up high will prevent the heat from coning on too.

No regarding the wattage. While the thermostat does control draw, user can't restrict it to only certain wattage.

Yes, I believe it does. We had several problems with the thermostat and were promptly taken care of by the company. First with a new thermostat control unit and finally an entire new unit. Not exactly thrilled with the heater overall but serves the purpose fairly well.

The heater has a GFI switch and is really made for a bathroom I believe. I have use the unit hanging and free standing.

Yes. By rotating the thermostat control fully counter clockwise. No indicator lamp to show when it is on though.

There is a switch on the side that has low, med, and high settings. As far as being able to hook up a thermostat that is a little out of my area of expertise, but I assume with the proper knowledge you should be able to. I assume mine is wired that way right now. Thermostat calls for heat, boiler comes on, once the boiler reaches a set temp the pump comes on. Once the boiler reaches a high set temp the boiler shuts down but the pump continues until a low set temp is reached. Guesses only.

It does have a thermostat, but as in my review when it cycles off, you can smell gas and gives off CO. Use this heater at your own risk.

No. It's linked to the wall thermostat. Very nice unit though. Warm and quiet! We are happy with it. Electrician said it was an easy installation.

Yes, you can, and by the way, it's a very powerful but still silent fan, the heater has it's own fan and only operates with the heater on. My unit does not have a light but it is available also.

I believe it does. I purchased the natural gas version of this heater as well as the 20,000 btu unit. They work great and we haven't had any problem with any one of them. They come with the feet or wall mount brackets as well. With the smaller unit it has the pilot light setting and 2 other settings now it will not shut off when a room gets to a certain temperature.The 20,000 btu unit has an electric fan and will turn on and off leaving only the pilot light on once the room has reached the desired temperature.

Unit is a wall mount. Replaced my old thermostat. If it is close to the heater it will not be able to judge the room temperature. Love the unit, has a normal and economy mode we use when away from the house.
