Anyone know how the thermostat works? Does the thermostat work like a furnace does? I expected that say the room temperature was 75 and I set the unit for 72 (in any of the 3 modes) that the unit would be off and automatically turn on when the room...

I now like the machine but the settings/temps process is mysterious. In brief, be sure it is in the mode you want; like standard and not eco or fan. I turn it on and up to where it starts, then back it down. I set its reading to four or five degrees higher than I actually intend. This way it cycles on and off at night and keeps the (bed)room at the desired temperature. This advice may not help. In which case persist; just fool with the thing until you win. Or call LeLonghi and good luck with that.

You can only set the temperature in 5 degree increments starting at 60 degrees, then 65, 70, 75, 80, 85 and MAX, whatever that is. It is preset to only allow you to choose those numbers. You can't set it for 63 degrees or 71 degrees or something like that. I don't understand these other responses because they don't really answer the question. I have owned the heater for 2 years so I know....

Mine has never got too hot. It cycles on and off depending upon the temperature setting. I set mine on 70 degrees and leave it there. When room temperature reaches 70 it shuts off - first the heat and then the fan after it cools a bit. Works just like your whole house thermostat.

I have mine set at 73 degrees. The unit stays on and blows fan and not a/c when it hits your temperature. It must have a thermostat. It stays on all the time either fan or a/c. It does have a shut on/off timer that you can set also for a 24 hours cycle to turn it on/off.

Anne, I just tried to set the auto thermostat on mine while on the low heat setting and it kept flipping it back to the high heat setting...so I think the answer to your question is no. But I can vouch for this space heater. I bought mine last January and used it nightly throughout the winter. It's one of the least noisy that I came across and it can heat a small bedroom very quickly (so much so that I typically set it at a temperature and then have to go turn it down about 15-20 minutes later because it heats so well). When you use the auto thermostat setting, the unit will heat the air to about 2-3 degrees hotter than the temperature you set; then, it will shut off the fan/stop heating until the temperature of the air drops to 1 degree cooler than the temperature you set. At that time, it'll kick the fan/heat back on again. It's a great heater and I would buy another one in a heart beat if I needed an additional space heater.

The thermostat is not set by temperatures. Levels 1-5 settings...setting 1 is pretty low...setting 5 is really high.

Your question is very vague but here goes, The Man Control works like this, when you first turn the unit on you set it to high to heat the room to the temp youlike in the room then you rotate it counter clockwise to get the temp you want it well turn off most of the time at about a quarter of the way on, but your supposeto set it at what temp like when you back it down! Hope that works!

This unit has a thermostat for the 59°-86° range. If you set the thermostat to only 60 degrees, the unit will not blow warm air. if the room temp is already higher than the 60 degrees. Might want to set it initially for 86 degrees. The Unit will take several minutes the first time you use it. Then try setting it for mid-70 or higher. Good luck.

I'm really not sure. I'm thinking this would be a question for a heating professional. The remote actually acts as a thermostat. All you do is set it for a median temperature and the stove shuts down when it's reached and turns back on when the room temperature drops 3 degrees below the median temperature you have chosen.

The thermostat works like many in other such units: it will allow the ambient temperature to drop a degree or two below the set temperature before it cuts in and it will exceed the set temperature by the same degree or two before it cuts out. It's not a highly sophisticated unit--it's just a space heater, after all--but I have been very satisfied with its performance. I purchased it for use it in a fairly small space and it's just perfect.

It does run. From my experience, depending on the temperature you desire and the size of the room, it will cool to the temp requested and then go to a fan mode until temp rises again. Then it kicks back into cooling mode. The problem I run into, and maybe it's because of the size of my room, is I want 70 degrees and can only barely make it to 75 (maybe). I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but it does stay cool in the room and that's all that matters. In my case, it pretty much runs constantly on cooling mode until I turn it off but, like I said, it depends.

It does not actively cool the air like an air conditioner would. Instead, it will automatically shut off if the air temperature reaches the threshold temperature you set. Example: You go to bed and it's 78 degrees, so you run your fan to cool you off. A few hours later, it drops to 74 degrees (the set threshold), so the fan shuts it self off. I'm not sure if it will turn back on if the temperature goes above the selected threshold.

You can set the thermostat so that the fan will automatically turn on (or off) when the room temperature rises above (or below) the set temperature. [It normally displays the current room temperature - except when you are Setting it to a start temperature].

Is this a new thermostat? If so, I'd return it. I have the identical unit and mine adjusts to at least 80. There is nothing in the instructions to explain why you would be having the problem. Also, Honeywell has a good website for instruction PDF downloads.

It's in the remote, you can set the remote to a certain temp, when that low temp is reached in the room at the remote the fan will turn off automatically, when the temp goes back above the set temp the fan will go on again by itself, of course you can override this feature and have the fan just stay on no matter what the temp is.

It senses temperature. You can set to come on at a below your setting, or a above settings. In other words, if you have its set at 80 degrees on the winter setting, when your furnace kicks on and the airflow reaches 80 degrees or above the fan kicks on. The opposite true for the summer mode....my opinion it works better as a booster for the furnace, but It does help some in the summer for the A/C.

No, mine didn't. They recommend you purchase a programmable thermostat if you want to control it. I have just leave it on 24/7 and it's been great. Takes the chill out of the air in the bathroom. It's meant to run continuously because it takes a while to heat the whole room (6-12 hours).
