I want to put the unit in a pump house and have it turn on with a lower temp, say 50F.. Is that possible?

I would not put in a pump house,want if the pump would start to leak on the heater.

This unit should not be run if temperatures are below 40 F. Optimally the temperature should be 45 F. There is no upper temperature that I have encountered that causes the unit to malfuntion.

Patricia, the temperature range cannot be set lower then 180 degrees. this is meant for a certain size boiler to heat a certain size house. if you need to be at 140 then perhaps your boiler should have been smaller. it all depends on the size of the house and how well house is insulated. if you replace the controller with a lower range than what is on the unit, it may not function properly.

You will have to turn the volume of water down. Install a gate valve before the heater and turn it half closed. These are great little units but if the incoming temperature is low they don't have enough btu's to raise the temp that much. Hope this helps.

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.

Yes. Just set the temperature to 65 degrees and it will turn on if the temperature in the room goes below that. It will keep it at 65 degrees or whatever you set it to. Then you can raise the temperature by pressing the up arrows to the temperature you want later. The up and down temperature buttons are right on the front of the thermostat. You can see them in the photo. Easy to use. Lights up as soon as you touch one of the buttons!

I do not believe that you can. This model only has the temperature settings which go from off to the very highest setting. I do love it regardless.

We have the pump installed, and it works well. The pump only starts when we push the button connected to the unit, or when we push the button on the remote control. When the water temperature is reached, the unit stays off until the button is pushed again.

I don't see why water temp of 105 degrees would be any problem. The housing material appears to be capable to handle that water temp just fine. The pump works fine and is self priming. Very compact compared to others. Has very good pressure. Good price for a good pump.

Yes you can. It's 100% logical. You set it, the temp stays until you change it.

My unit seems to run fine at colder temps It will shut off itself if it does not need to run.. But I don't run it when it gets below 50 degrees outside ,because I have no need to run it then.

We have loved this unit, I don't' believe there is a fan setting for hi low just temperature settings which would turn the unit on and off when it gets to the correct temperature inside.

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.

Since they do not use degrees as a measurement on the dial you can only set for low which in most of these heaters is around 50 degrees. They will vary between them and the manufacturers will not guarantee any setting. They just expect you to find an adequate setting for your needs. The difference in operation time from 40 to 50 degrees is negligible in my estimation so just using the lowest setting no matter the temp should be adequate for most situations. Hope this helps.

There is no true On/Off setting. If you want interior temps to fall below 40F, you would need to turn the unit off at the circuit breaker.

I haven't programmed the unit. I just set the switch to either heat or cool, then the temp. I want maintained.

I have mine set to 1 as well for that same purpose. Mine does turn on and off and has never went on once the tempature has reached its setting. I am in NY so its a basement unit and stays around the 40-50 degree range. there may be a probem with the unit. I would reach out to customer service.
