Product Description
The Fahrenheat FUH Electric Heater offers an easy and effective way to provide lasting, comfortable warmth in even the most hard-to-heat areas. Suitable for indoor spaces as well as covered outdoor spaces, this heater mounts easily to the wall; it provides warmth in home spaces as well as commercial spaces. It works smart; the automatic control delays fan use until the heating element is warmed. For added safety and durability, when the heater is at maximum capacity or turned off, the fan continues to operate until the heating element is cooled. By preventing the circulation of cold air and preventing an output of an excessive amount of heat, your space stays comfortable longer. Fahrenheat is part of the Marley Engineered Products family, which provides a wide range of innovative, quality engineered, commercial, industrial, and residential electric comfort heaters and ventilation solutions. All our products are engineered with aesthetics, functionality, safety, and longevity in mind.

Just some random notes on this:
Mounted on at 8' ceiling, a 6' person can walk under it without bumping their head.
If you're a coordinated and handy person capable of holding the weight of this with one hand, you can install this by yourself. But it would be much easier and safer with two people, just because it's awkward.
There is an excellent wiring diagram supplied, so anyone that knows how to wire, say, a multi-speed or reversing AC motor to line power won't have any trouble with this. But if what I just wrote seemed confusing, then you might need an electrician or someone else qualified for this.
Pretty sure that the reason that this *requires* wiring, is because this is designed and UL listed as a permanently installed heating device. If it had a cord, it would have to be listed as a portable device, and designed with little feet instead of a ceiling mount. Oh, and you'd still have to wire it, because a 5000w heater requires a 240v plug, and the US there are many different kinds of those.
Someone suggested that the thermostat should have degrees marked on it. Unfortunately, that wouldn't work, because the temperature at 6+' in the air is going to be different than the normal height of a house thermostat. That might not seem like much difference, but it is, and the difference depends on the size of the room, and the airflow and outdoor temperature.
This heater doesn't make the air hot enough to burn you. That's a great thing, because it isn't uncomfortable to be around, and because the parts will all last longer because of that. A 5000W heater puts out 5000W, just like a gallon of water is a gallon of water, they all make exactly the same amount of heat, just that the ones that aren't screaming hot have to move a little more air.
Pretty sure that this is made in the US. It is well made. Good terminals, nice fit and finish, solid.
Heater comes wired from the factory to put out 5000W but, from the instructions, I gather that one could change some wiring around to reduce output. Based on the size of my garage, I stayed with the factory setting. I selected a location within 25' of the breaker box and had to install a couple of 2 x 4s in order to support the hanger, as I have a finished ceiling. Then ran the Romex from the 30 Amp breaker to a newly installed electrical box at the back of the heater. Used flexible 1/2" conduit from the box to the back of the heater. There is a large, hinged, door at the bottom of the heater that allows for easy access to the connections. Wiring was straightforward - all you need are the two 10 gauge wires (one black, one white) and the ground. Once I connected to the breaker, I threw power to it, and it was cranking out heat in no time.
The heater is smaller than what I expected so, consequently, takes up little room on the ceiling. The last few days have seen temperatures sustained in the 20s. I've had the heater running for about the last 48 hours (cycles on and off), and it has kept the garage at a very comfortable temperature. Again, I have an insulated garage and, to me, comfortable is in the 55 - 65 degree range, when the temps outside are in the 20s and teens. Best part is that I have not had the thermostat above halfway, and it maintains the garage comfortably and does not run too often.
Very pleased with the quality of the item, the ease of installation, and performance so far. Cannot comment on how the heater will affect my utility bill until next month but I don't expect it will be too drastic, as it does not run that often. Based on my limited experience, I recommend this item for similar situations/installations.
All the above is personal opinion, based on my experience. Your mileage may vary,
