if i turn the thermostat knob beyond the 85 degree mark, will the heater run indefinitely or will it power off at a higher temperature?

Once it reaches 85 degrees then it will shut off , until the room cools below 85 degrees

The heater control is not intended to be a thermostat that will keep an area temperature no lower than a setting. It keeps the heater no colder than a setting so my heater came on briefly when the temperature was 25F. It didn't significantly heat the area. I would not trust this heater to keep an area from going below freezing, The outside temperature plays a major role in the temperature that this or similar heaters heat an area. By experement you could find a setting that would keep an area at 40F but if the outside temp. took a dive the inside temp will also go down but not as much. If you need to freeze protect an area plug your heater into a Farm Innovators TC-3. Find one on Amazon. It kicks on at 35F

It has a position on the knob for "no heat" though it does not "click" into place. It does work to turn off the thermostat, though I unplug it if I'm not going to be using it for a while (i.e. at the end of the day).

Yes, the fan runs until it reaches your selected level, then it cuts off and will later come back on when the temp drops. We love the heater. Good luck

No. The knob which activates the heat also activates the fan. Lowest setting is 105f.

The description says thermostatically controlled.....so yes it should turn off at a certain temperature. I just ordered mine so will let you know when I get them.

No, the heater does not turn off once the room reaches the designated temperature. I'm happy to hear your heater works. My heater stopped working.

It depends on how you wire it. I have mine attached to a wall mounted on off switch. If it is hard wired without a intervening switch it will restart automatically and will suto shut off based on the thermostat. Because it needs to be mountef 6 plus feet from the floor I mounted mine off the ceiling. I did not want to use ladder to adjust thermostat so I put in on off switch.

I'm not sure about the 45* temp turn off, I checked it because the temp was in the 40's and I thought it automatically turned off above 32* and it was still on. I will just unplug it when it's above freezing.

It never actually turns completely off. It's actually better than that. The thermostat is infinitely variable. The heater adjusts the heat and fan speed based on the difference between the set temperature and the room temperature. When you first turn it on, the fan will be relatively loud and it will use close to the maximum power. As the room warms up, the fan eventually slows to a whisper, and the power use drops to almost nothing. I'm a huge fan of these heaters. My in-laws used one to heat their small RV on a trip to Alaska. They're safe, quiet and efficient. Well worth the price.

I have mine set to "auto" so I assume it turns off when the thermostat reaches a certain level & vice versa but will monitor it more closely now that the questions has been asked.

If you set the thermostat knob all the way to high is doesn't appear to shut off but it may just be set at a much higher shutoff temperature then I have ever used it at, if you set the dial at one of the lower settings it does cycle when it reaches the temperature. When I use it in the bath with the door shut the 4th mark (at 1 o'clock when looking from the front of the fan) cycles at around 70 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit which is very comfortable when getting out of the shower. This is in a small bath (about 6 x 10 foot with rather chilly tile floors) it might be a bit cooler in a larger room and it cycles at about 72 to 7j5 degrees in my 12x15 office. I haven't gotten a thermometer to check the exact temperatures that it cycles at but any where I have used it in it has performed very much to my satisfaction. I also like that it has a Fan only setting, I have used it on the window ledge to help circulate fresh air in and out as well.

Both answers below are correct. We use our heater in a small bathroom that gets very chilly in the morning. The thermostat dial on the side is labeled 1-3 with 3 as the warmest setting. I would agree that set on 3 with the door closed, the room would probably warm to approx 85 degrees in short order. If left on 1, the heater would cycle on and off at around 60 degrees. Hope that helps.

I keep my thermostat control knob set at 2. Temperature is 68°.Turning thermostat down will lower temperature More. Never had need to. Room size is 3348 square feet.

The + button will go to 90 degrees. I doubt that it could warm the room that much.

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.
