Comfort Zone Hard-Wired Ceiling Mount Garage Electric Space Heater, Fan-Forced, 5,000 watt, 240 volt, Overheat Protection, Thermal Cut-Out Switch, Ideal for Workshop & Garage, ETL Compliant, CZ220

I live in New Hampshire so my garage gets pretty cold in the depths of winter. Didn’t expect too much from this heater but it works really well and keeps the garage at a good, comfortable temperature.My garage is about 20’x20’ so I was surprised this heater was able to handle it. Need to turn it on a couple of hours before I go into the garage. Air circulation in my garage isn’t great so I do tend to get uneven heat.Runs off 240v so if you don’t have a supply you’ll need to run one.Overall very happy.

Needed a heater in garage and this fit the bill easy to put up and it's not bad on electric bill highly recommend it

Bought for workshop during cold weather months. Unit requires 240V power which was fairly easy to install from my breaker cabinet. The heater is a fine product and works as stated. However, the wattage and BTUs produce was less than sufficient to heat up the 22' x 35' shop in a timely manner. I would suggest a larger unit with a higher BTU level.

Works great

It’s 35 degrees in Atlanta, and this little guy (the 7500 watt unit) heat up my 20’ by 20’ 2-car garage to more than 71 degrees F (I know, because it’s colder inside the house) with the thermostat set to about 80 degrees, which is ~10 degrees lower than its maximum.Technically it puts out more BTUs than what it’s required, according to every website calculator I used, but it’s good that it can put out more than needed because then it can cycle rather than running non stop.Mounting: it comes with two short lag screws, 3/8” diameter. You can use just one in the middle to be able to rotate the unit (I did, as you can see in the picture) but honestly you won’t need to rotate it if you mount it directed the right way, because there should be plenty of circulation to heat up the whole area. I wanted mine to rotate so I could work in one side of the garage for just a few minutes with the hot air blowing in my direction, instead of waiting until the whole place is warm before doing brief work.Mounting TIP: I went to Home Depot and bought a 3/8” diameter lag screw 5” long because I didn’t like how short the provided screw was, given that it had to go through: washer 1, mounting bracket, washer 2, and drywall before finally reaching the wooden stud. The screw bit unto a 4”x4”x14.5” piece of wood that I put between the ceiling joists (I didn’t want to put a 3/8” diameter hole in a joist. That’s just me...)Mounting tip 2: if you get a longer screw like I did, you definitely want to drill a pilot (smaller) hole first, otherwise the wood will split open. The recommended pilot hole size is 15/64” but that made it way too hard to turn the screw into my spare piece (using an impact wrench it would turn a couple of times before needing to take a break to protect the motor from overloading) so I went to 1/4” (or slightly bigger, I don’t remember) and it was very snug, totally secure, and it didn’t feel like the wood was going to split.I’m a DIYer but the risk of messing up an electrical installation is too high. It’s not worth it. If you get electrocuted, that much amperage will cause you to not be able to let go of the wire and you. will. die.A bad installation can cause the next sucker in your attic to get electrocuted, or create the conditions for a future fire.For all those reasons and because realistically it would have taken me several trips to the store, specialty tools (probably) and many days longer than what I always say things will take, I hired a professional electrician. Plus I have no doubt that, when I eventually sell the house, the buyer’s inspector will not just approve of the installation but might point out that it was proper and clean, and give the buyer confidence. The electrician read the installation instructions, and took care of the rest in just a few hours with his assistant.Noise level: it’s quiet! When it runs, all you hear is the fan, which is like any other 10” diameter fan. It makes a sound right before turning on and right before turning off: maybe as loud as a loud finger snap.There is no need to set up the unit in the bracket’s tilted position because the slats move to adjust the angle of the airflow.Summary: it was a great purchase . You should read the installation/positioning instructions and consider beefing up the screw and joist. Hire a professional electrician: if you have to ask people here the gauge of the wire or any electrical advice, then you don’t know enough about electrical installations to do it right!Peace!

Brand new heater was having an issue running for a few minutes and then completely shutting off for several minutes more. No error codes, no lights, no way to reset it except wait for the red light to return. This is a different symptom than most people here have experienced.Contacted the company and I was given the run around and a list of things to check.They said the fins needed to be straight or it would over heat the heater. Then why are the fins there? Why is that not mentioned in the manual? Why would the fins be there at all?They said the fan needed to be at its tilted position or it would over heat. I'm pretty sure it was designed to be used at all of the available positions and not over heat. Especially when my garage never reaches a temp above 40F.They wanted me to move a sensor for them so it would read better. If that's bee such a big problem why don't they redesign the heaters? If my issue was the same as the other reviewers this may have worked. They obviously did not understand how my issue was different.They wanted me to bring in a licensed electrician to check the wiring and overall circuit. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't run at all if the wiring was messed up.They vaguely asked for pictures of the wiring and their "Engineer" ridiculed the 5mm of exposed wiring at the lugs and the fact the ground wire at the terminal wasn't perfectly looped. Sure I fixed that and of course it made no difference. Nitpicking minor installation issues is not troubleshooting. Also, i'm pretty sure customer service is supposed filter responses from engineers who have no tact. Not with this company apparently. They were both rude and unhelpful. Their engineer never gave any troubleshooting advice. I don't think they have a true engineer with any field experience.I humored this interaction instead of immediately returning it because I usually like to fix things and give companies a chance to redeem their selves. I also enjoyed witnessing a third-rate company in action. If their upfront customer support is this bad I can only imagine how horrible their management is.After being in several different electrical based positions in the automation industry it was a laugh to have people act as if a customer wouldn't know anything. It's a surprisingly small world guys.I eventually gave up on them once it went from funny to sad. I returned it and got a different heater which of course works fine. I have to thank Amazon for their return policy.
