I am looking to heat a 900 sqft yoga studio from 75 to 105 degrees. Will these heaters go that high or do the shutoff at a particular temp?

I have been very happy with the performance with King heaters. I do not heat a space of this size. Call them and I'm sure they will guide you to the right model for your needs.

they are controlled by an internal t-stat and only shut off once they reach the temp you set. But 900 sq ft heated to 105 might be stretching a single too far. I would suggest two units.

The settings are cryptic and not explained in the documentation. There is no off, but low seems to be off (we'll see this winter). Then a comfort zone, and a high. I think the high just stays on. The high end of the comfort zone keeps my 400 sq foot garage at 80 degrees (no insulation on 2 walls). R19 insulation in the ceiling. Hope that helps

We used it to heat approx 400 sf of garage space. I don't think it will get to the high temp you are looking for.

If the heater is putting out heat, the only reason I can think of for it not reaching higher temps is that it is not big enough for the area that you are trying to heat. I have mine in a game room downstairs, about 650 sq. ft., and it can get up to 70,72,74 degrees.

No, it should be fine. These heaters have an adjustable settings. I have a 300 watt for my 90 gallon fish pond and have it set at 80 degrees. It kept the water warm and prevented it from freezing during the winter.

Not sure... but the beauty of this machine is its timer: set and forget it! Your space will be as warm as you want it as long as your ceilings aren't higher than the standard 8 feet. Hope that helps!

That depends on how many degrees you need to warm the air and the insulation and leakage present in the room. Conservatively speaking it should handle about 120 sq. ft. Where Michael gets the 800 sq. ft I have no idea because that's not at all realistic, not aligned with other 1500W heaters which produce an identical amount of heat.

My bedroom has a very high ceiling. Once he heater has been running for a few minutes (abt 15) I turn on the ceiling fan to help circulate the air from the ceiling. It always raises the temp a couple of more degrees at the floor level.

You can use the up arrow to "set" the temperature higher, but the heater may not be capable of achieving a higher temperature in your room. It sounds like your space is too cold and/or too big for the heater to handle it. If it runs constantly and never shows a temperature higher than 58, then that is probably as high as it can manage.

We love this heater. It shuts off when reaching desired temperature. We turn it down at night. Yes, when running, it is always at 1500 watts.

I ordered two Mr Heaters for my 30 X 30 garage. They were professionally installed by the propane gas company .i have very high ceilings in the garage. I use the heaters to warm the space. The heaters will start and stop automatically. I am happy with the product. They did screech when they were first installed. The pressure had to be adjusted.

I have a huge large master bedroom with a high ceiling. I use this heater at night with the door closed. I set it at 70% on the low setting. It does a great job of maintaining the heat at 70%. I know because we have a thermometer in the room that we check it against. It comes on and off during the night but we can't hear it. I have bought other heaters that could not do what this one does and were noisy. I have 3 of these in my home and I highly recommend this heater.

59* is the lowest and 88* is the highest. If the room you want to heat is bigger than a 10' X 10' the heater will have to run all the time to keep it warm. It is to small for regular rooms. I would look for one that is bigger.

1. Probably not since space heaters are usually 120V thermostats (unless it has a low voltage control). 2. Yes. 1 degree. However, setting it that low results in way too much cycling. As it actually is more like .1 degree. For example 75 set point. 76 Cooling turns on. 75.9 (even though you don't see the decimal) it turns off. The 2 degree default works well and acts more like a 1.1 degree. For example 74 set point. 76 cooling turns on. Turns off at 74.9. In effect giving you close to 1 degree. Note: I have had other thermostats that 1 degree worked more as expected, but this is doable.

Hello, The Lifesmart Heater i bought never worked good. I believe that i got a defective model. I fixed it myself and found loose wire connections inside of the unit. It reduces my electrical bill about 25% but i use two heaters in my house. One is the Lifesmart 1500 and the other is a different model Diva Tranquility 1500 model. I like the Diva model much better and the two infrared heaters combined heat my entire house well. My home is 1,260 sq. ft. and i set the heaters at 65 degrees and dont use my big whole house heater all winter. I do save some electricity in Kentucky. Our electric is expensive here and higher than a lot of other places we lived. I hope this helps you out!

I use this to heat 350 square feet in Durham, NC. The winters are mild and the unit is most always on the low setting. I would buy the next size up and you can keep it on low instead of using this one with little to no spare capacity. I hope this helps.

I don't know if it shuts off if it gets too hot....haven't had that happen. I set the built-in thermostat to my desired temperature and once it reaches it, it won't go above it. We use ours in the opposite end of the house that has the free standing fireplace and it keeps it nice and warm over there. It has a fan that keeps the warm air coming through the unit circulating into the room. Unit looks nice too...blends in as a piece of furniture!!

I don't think the unit will heat 1,000 sq ft very well. We use two of these heaters to heat 512 sq ft / 8' tall and it takes about 45 minutes. We are in the panhandle of Florida so we don't see extreme cold tempratures.

The unit has a 4 position rotary switch: off, fan, low, and high. Based on my experience i find no difference between low and high and a 12x12 room would be the max I try to keep the chill off. Max is probably 1500 watts as advertised but I'vr had more expensive cermac 1500 watt heaters that would heat a larger area. I'd call this a heater and those units a ceramic furnace. I hope thay helps
