My central heat went out and I ordered this unit to get by temporarily. With ceiling fans circulating the air this unit heats my entire house! Who needs central heat? I strongly recommend this product.

Seeing how I had an open 250 wall socket from a old a/c that went bad....i decided to buy this Heater for the back rooms of my old double wide for the upcoming winter.
The last few years I have been using just them standard plug in electric heaters, you know, the $30 dollar ones you see in the stores as winter approaches.
This Heats up great! It's not to loud...way better than any standard 115 volt plug in wall unit. The BTU's on this is almost TRIPLE to any standard heater. This has 13,000 BTU, a standard 115 plug in heater max is 5100 BTU.
For less than $100 it's a great investment!
If you have a 250 20 amp socket, get this! If not, them plug in ones ain't too bad (Radiator kinds).

Bought 2 of these to supplement our pellet stove in our living room.
First of all, please note these are 220 volt, you will probably need to have some electrical work done first. These will not plug into a standard 110v outlet.
We have trouble getting the living room temp up because it is large (15 x 30) with lots of windows (double pane). Also, it is an addition and of the 90 feet of walls, 75 feet are outside walls. The insulation is there, but nothing fancy. Fiberglass between 2x4 studs.
After working all day we do not have a lot of time to relax in the living room. The pellet stove is great for the weekends, but during the week it takes too long heat up the living room. By the time it gets warm, it's time to sleep.
Today the packages were waiting on the doorstep, opened them up and plugged them in. Faint "new heater" smell, not bad. 18 degrees F outside, had to turn the heaters down after about an hour to keep from roasting. I think that qualifies as a success.
Some notes:
They do not have "tip over" protection that will automatically shut them off if tipped.
They do have a small "flip-up" handle on back, to lift them.
They are lighter in color than the picture, without the sticker on front.
They have an orange light that is on whenever they have power. It only goes out if the unit is unplugged. So there is no easy way to see if they are switched "off" from a distance.
They have two controls: a rotary thermostat and a 3-way rocker switch (Low, Off, High)
The fan is the same speed on low or high.
They take 16.7 amps on high.
The instructions are generic, meant to cover every type of heater that TPI makes.

I ordered this product about two months ago. It is by far the best heating experience I have ever had. This product will HEAT and not break your wallet in the process. I love this heater, will recommend it to anyone. I can not express my sincere respect for this heater. Heaters do NOT come any better than this. Period.

We have a corner room in our house which never gets warm and I have probably bought 5 1500 Watt space heaters to fix the problem. None of them ever got the room very warm and none of them lasted more than a season. This heater is fabulous. Not only does it quickly heat the room but the kids can switch it to low thus not having to worry about constantly shifting between high and low all day long. It is quiet and efficient all for a great price.
