the heater is working beautifully. all be it a bit warm on the no freeze setting..it likes to give a general room temperature of about 48* F.. it hangs on an interior support... but that is attached to the cooler framing... so the thermostat might be reading more of the cool metal framing... than the room temperatures to figure out if it's time to kick on.. bit it's not all that too hot.. and might be just the setting once it gets down to below 0* F.... a roof heat baffle was included to keep that foam from being weakened by any excessive heat from below... although it never gets warm so far... There is the oscellating fan now.. to make the temperatures more even from the floor to the ceiling... an easier job now that there is the carpet..
We'll give an update after the first snowstorm of more than a foot or two with winds of 50 MPH... which I'm sure will come all too soon.. secure and warm inside...
