How many sq feet does this heat?

It is rated at a maximum of 21,500BTU/hr. You have to calculated your heating requirements based on heat loss thru windows etc, your local, and insulation ratings.

I installed the EX22CN in my 20X18 family room that was an addition to the main house. I have normal 8 foot ceiling and moderate insulation. The room also has 4- 4'X4' casement windows that are starting to show their age. I installed it in March of this year so I have not gone through below zero weather yet, only high 20's temperature. Having said that, I have not seen the wall heater run at full capacity yet (heat ouput modulates based on demand) and has kept the room very comfortable. hope this helps.

I am heating a basement room 16x24 with a 10 ft ceiling and it does a great job. I use the economy setting which allows us to drop the heat by several degrees. Also you can set the on- off times so it doesn't have to waste heat during the night. My unit is the EX 17 (BTU) Natural Gas model.

I am not sure..I AM trying to make it heat about 800 sq feet..we will see how sucessful it is when the temp gets sub zero for a length of time..It seems adaquate..

it definitely depends on several factors including climate, ceiling height, amount of insulation in ceiling and walls, and how well the Windows are sealed. This will be our first winter with this particular unit, but I expect it to heat our dining room and living room. I think it is more a question of how many rooms can it heat since it only has one output location compared to central heating. It is more than adequate for any reasonably sized room in a house but will have a challenge heating the whole house.

I do not. It does not output a lot of heat...only a small amount in a localized area. A floor heater would likely be a better option....in my opinion.

Exactly, I am not sure; but it heats a 300 sq ft room on my house very well.

I had it in my living with very vaulted ceilings to help with drafting and it was about 700 square feet. Right now its in our guest house (850 square feet) and it is nice and toasty. Right now temp is around 30 lows to 50 highs. Great for supplement heat or higher temps. I have thought about getting another for main house foe this kind of weather because the wood stove is too hot right now.

I purchased it for a second home that I visit off and on during the year. I have it set in the bedroom And it is about 200 sq feet. It does a nice job of heating that. I do question the accuracy of the thermostat however but for the price you can't really expect much more than it does. I'd buy it again.

No, just one heating setting. It provides heat on a cool evening to about 10 feet out in front about 2 feet from each side of the unit. Hard to say exact but about 50-70 sq. feet. I do live in Cheyenne Wy. low humidity and often wind or breeze which would factor into this.

Same square footage as yours. This heater puts out only a mild heat that will dissipate quickly in bigger rooms, with possibly large or multiple windows. The smaller the space the better it works. It struggled to keep up a satisfactory temp in a space the size of ours. High ceilings probably didn't help my situation either. I placed mine in a bit smaller room and it works wonderfully.

My basement area is approximately 650 square feet. Using only two of heating elements keeps the area comfortable. After a short period, have to turn down.

Mine is in a bedroom, about14 ft. square. It takes around 3 hours to warm it up 20 degrees. I have had no problems.

You feel the heat immediately but best results are achieved in a medium size room after it is on for a half hour or so. It heats my computer room of 140 square feet very comfortably in that amount of time.

not very many. if it is the only heat, less than 100 sq-ft. ( mine is only 500 watts.) If it is supplemental heat, maybe then more than 100.

I think that it is recommended for 700 sq ft. but I am able to heat 1000 sq. ft. easily by placing it in a central part of the house (wall mounted) and using ceiling fans reversed in the more distant rooms. I am using natural gas so not sure if that makes any difference or not but I highly recommend this heater.

Suppose to heat up to 900 SF. I have mine in my living room about 600 SF with high ceilings and it keeps it warm.

Our room in the basement is approximately 20x25 and it heats it very well. It pretty much helps the whole basement (700 sqft) feel warmer. Irea

I don't have that information. My house is 1930 sq. ft. and it does a good job of cooling this size house.

It says it is rated for 700 sq ft, but it will heat more than that. I think that it will depend on your floor plan, and the amount of insulation in the house. We can easily heat 1000 sq. ft without turning up the thermostat over 3 (goes to 5). Most of the time 2 or 2.5 is adequate and the house stays nice and cozy.

I use it in a three car garage(720 sq ft) to take the chill off when I'm working out there. It works out quite well for me. I like it and myself I think it would heat a 20x13 room.
