Heater is ok but not top of the line
I recently installed this heater in my garage and I live in the cold state of Minnesota. This heater doesn't provide any more heat then a standard heater even though it is 5000 watts. I had to put a 240 volt, 30 amp circuit in to run the heater. The heater is ok but nothing special.
I have had two of them for three years.
The product apears well built and worked very well for about 24 months. Now the higher wattage element is burned out on both heaters so they only work on low. They both burned out within a week of each other which makes me think it is a manufacturing problem. It is an extremely expensive heater and a very expensive repair. I plan to buy another brand for less than the cost of the repair. Thanks Cadet.
CADET electric heater
I just ordered a second CADET RCP502S The Hot One, for my garage shop. Superior to every other small heater that I investigated. Excellent engineering. Having two settings makes it very versatile. For a larger space I use the high wattage setting to reach the temperature I want, then reduce the wattage to maintain that temperature - the thermostat works. And it is way the best looking garage heater.
