Looking for a ceramic heater that does not shut off automatically

[LouAvul]

It's for an uninsulated hunting cabin with a hot water heater, indoor plumbing, etc.

I was thinking one for the kitchen and one for the hot water heater.

But I'm getting the impression they all shut off after a few hours. I need them to stay on all the time during extreme cold. To backup the propane heaters.

thanx

Got this at Amazon last year. It has a thermostat and never stops unless you have a power outage.

Works well on a cold spot.

The automatic shutoff is a safety feature.

I recommend oil filled heaters such as made by Deloghi. They are the safest and thermostatically controlled.

You just have to keep the range so that the cold side doesn’t get too cold.

I use one of those for my “man cave”, and if leave it running for an hour in subzero weather, it brings the inside of my shed up to a comfortable 65 degrees...:)

I go out there in the winter to relax, turn some music on, smoke my pipe, and watch the snow fall.

I think they’ll all stay unless it reaches a certain indoor temperature. Certainly should stay on full time if it’s below 60 or something, as long as you have the thermostat/heat control on full.

They have ceramic heat bulbs for reptile enclosures which last a very long time. I’ve used them for my sailboat motor over the winter, if you are just trying to keep a small plumbing enclosure above freezing. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MXD4SMW?tag=reptileslife-general-20 Different wattages/heat output available.
If you want to warm a room, I like the delonghi oil filled radiators best.

Even heating pads now shut off after 2 hours!

This is nuts!

Hot water heater?

It’s a water heater....hot water is already hot and does not need to be heated.

[Manuel OKelley]

Agree, much lower fire risk with these

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

I love mine.

FWIW, any sort of clay pot and candle configuration is BS.

[LouAvul]

It says an 8 hour timer. It goes off after 8 hours? It can run for as long as 8 hours? Or is it a timer than you can use to shut it off after 8 hours?

Otherwise, it will run continuously to maintain a particular temperature?

Mine heats hot water.

I would want a thermostat on any heater, just for fire prevention if nothing else

Open the doors beneath the sink on all exterior walls. You just need to keep the area above 32°F. Lots of people I know do this and set the furnace to the lowest temperature that it allows. Usually around 45-50°F and that’s what they do for their winter cabins. Exterior pump houses usually work fine with just a 60 watt incandescent bulb

Space heaters are dangerous.Space heaters which don't turn off automatically are even more dangerous. Just sayin’

I am having great results with two new ENVI wall mounted convection heaters. I installed them, one each, in two rooms on the north side of my home. Really, really effective. And, quiet! No fans...

I have a couple of Pelonis three-tube infrared quartz heaters from Walmart. I’ve had several kinds of electric space heaters, and they work the best. They are radiant heaters, though, with only a little convection heat from the top and no blower. They work better for people than objects.

For keeping plumbing from freezing, a noisy dairy barn type heater with a blower might be better. They have wire coils and fans in them.

The following puts out a lot of heat and is probably the best of kerosene heaters. The other kerosene heaters are of an older design (more of a spreader plate burner) that are more likely to emit stinky odor. But refilling the tank (approximately every 12 hours) can be messy, unless you have a plan for filling them (couple of covered buckets: one for storing the siphon and one for putting the tank in while filling).

You should also be able to get one at your local farm or ranch supply or hardware store. But you need a local source of bulk K1 kerosene: a gas station that sells it. A kerosene heater will stink when being shut down, by the way, and a little when being lit. They also don’t work well at elevations above 6,000 feet or so (too little oxygen).

If those are the large, flat panels, that's the best recommendation in the thread. Safest and very effective. Warm wall heaters also come in various sizes from various manufacturers and vendors.
