This is listed as low temp operating, how low can it operate at?

Usually, a dehumidifier will cease to operate efficiently once the temperature in the house/basement goes below 60 degrees. It operates most efficiently from 70 degrees on up. Does this answer your query?

Yes, it operates at very low temperatures and has a defrost cycle, which is why I purchased it. It has survived temperatures as low as 8 °F.

I don't believe the temp. control goes down that far. You would have to bypass the automatic temp. control, not sure that is a good idea, I am not an electrician.

I have mine in the garage. The temperature dosn't get quite get that low, but I can't see why it would not run at that temp.You are still above freezing.Richard S.

The manual says that it can operate down to 14 degrees - I don't have any personal experience though since I am in research process...

No idea. However, similar electronic devices I specify are rated to zero degrees C. It's inexpensive, simple, and I wouldn't hesitate to use it at low temps.

I have it at the lowest setting. I heat a small space which has thick 4" foam insulation (my pump house is about 4' x 4' x 4'). The thermometer usually reads about 60° F. A little warmer than I need, but acceptable. The lowest setting is supposed to come on at 35° F. I also have a second heater for back up.

As far as I know you can set the temp to what ever you want. I have only set my unit to 50, but never tried setting any lower.

With temperatures in the 33°F to 35°F range, mine heats the water near the heater to 50°F while running at a 75% duty cycle. At lower temperatures the duty cycle will reach 100% and the heater will not be able to supply enough power to maintain 50°F. Below that temperature of the water near the heater will be a nearly constant rise above the air temperature,. For my situation the temperature rise above ambient will be about 21°F. I would expect mine to freeze over when the ambient air temperature is 11°F.

Lowest temp setting is 220. There is a lower setting of "Simmer" but no temperature reference.

I have not used it in that low of a temperature, but so far the unit has been working just fine.

I don't know about 20 below but so far it's worked fine between 10 and 20 degrees

Not sure, I live in Texas. I believe the lowest temperature was around 34F and it worked perfectly fine.

First, this is bad, but lets try to verify that you cannot get the temperature down. Please make sure you are 6 inches from a back wall, and what is the ambient temperature. I own four units. They work well enough. 54-59 degrees. Sadly, I just threw out my last empty box today!

I don't know the lowest, I have never set it below 36 F. I use one in my shop to keep things from freezing.

Low temperature feature - continues to operate until temperature reaches 44F (6.6C)

I can't say that I have the technical answer for your question, however, I use it in very similar conditions except surrounding temp is 76 degrees.
