The first order came in damage. Amazon shipped me another one next day at no charge.

The Drain Pan fix Water Heater greater than 75 Gallons.

I need a large Drain Pan and Amazon had it and it was the least expensive.

Both Lowes and Home Depot do not stock this size.

Thanks,

Product arrived in a timely fashion and is of decent quality for the money (cheaper than buying in home depot). Many of these are plastic and cost as much. We like this one just fine.

I got this heater at Walmart about two years ago as an exchange for another heater that was recalled. I rarely used it until a few weeks ago. Seemed to work ok, not the best heat output but ok. But when I went to unlug the cord, the plug was so hot it burned my hand. Reported it to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, but haven't heard back from anyone.

We bought three of these three years ago in an emergency when our main heater blew. The following winter, we tried to reuse them, and two out of three were broken. The one that did make it to the second year died soon after. I remember when things used to last more than 90 days. Avoid this product.

Ordered this product a couple of weeks ago. Looks very nice. Heat is effective. It also has a nice handle to carry it.

However it makes as much noise as a hair dryer. Therefore is hard to keep it on for too long. Am considering returning the item.

Lasko Heater Model 5409 is the newer version of its predecessor, Model 5429 (according to Amazon; which I don't dispute).

BELOW, is my review of Lasko Model 5429. The info about Lasko Model 5429 also pertains to its successor, Model #5409.

SHORT STORY: If you use either of these heaters in a bathroom, the life of the heater will definitely be shortened.

I have owned two of these terrific little heaters -Lasko "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

HOWEVER, I have learned that the manufacturer states that this heater SHOULD NOT BE USED IN A BATHROOM. Not due to safety reasons, but FOR THIS REASON: The dampness/humidity from showers and tubs causes the heating element to corrode -causing the heater to permanently stop working.

I bought my second one of these heaters in July 2012, and on December 31, 2012 (6 months), the heater "died." Location where I used the heater: the BATHROOM.

Here is the link to the Lasko website, and product info for "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

[link not allowed by Amazon]

On the page that comes up, there is a button, "User Manual."

Click on that -it brings up a PDF file (which you can download, or read online).

On page 2 of the PDF, go to the second (smaller) "Warning" icon, and below it read item #15:

"15. This Heater is not intended for use in wet or damp locations. This Heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations."

There is a 3-year Manufacturer's Warranty. But, Amazon will not accept return of products whose Purchase Date is older than 30 days. Amazon Customer Service advised me to contact Lasko, which I did: Lasko Customer Service: 800-233-0268. Lasko has graciously consented to replace my heater this time, but they made sure I understand that using it in a bathroom will definitely shorten its life.

HERE is a space heater that is made to work in bathrooms.

In fact, it is named Holmes® Bathroom Heater, MODEL HFH436-NM. Note: Ignore the differing letters after HFH436; these two "models" are the same heater.

Holmes HFH436WGL-U Heater Fan with Bathroom Safe Plug

FYI: Holmes Customer Service, 800-545-5637

Regarding this unit on Amazon: Holmes Customer Service (on 1/4/2013) told me that the model listed on Amazon -Holmes® Bathroom Heater, MODEL HFH436WGL-U -is the same as MODEL HFH436-NM.

They are one and the same unit. I have just now (1/4/2013) placed an Amazon order for this bathroom heater.

Bought this heater for our office spaces and these work so well! The heat coverage is great and it's a very simple, non complicated heater so the functions are simple, hi or low and fan. Temperatures are adjustable and simple dial too. The sound doesn't bother me or my coworkers, it's not that loud, you can hear it but it's not annoying or causing an increase in speaking volume. Someone said it's as loud as a hair dryer -that is inaccurate and over exaggerated. It's a calming background noise. Definitely good when the office gets too quiet.

I Love this heater and I hope it lasts me for next winter too if not, it's so decently priced, buying a new one isn't a problem! I recommend it!

My plumber who installed this told me that I would need to set it on about 3 out of 5 to keep the detached garage apartment that I use for an office warm, which is about 450 square feet on a second floor with an unheated garage below. The other night it was 17 degrees and breezy outside and 1.25-1.5 out of 5 kept things comfortable. I have been using two electric heaters and the winter electric bills have been higher for the office than for my house on the same realty that has central heat and air, a washing macnine, an electric dryer, refrigerator, multiple TVs with every family member watching theirs and all sorts of other electrical devices. Further, electric heaters did not keep it warm, just unfrozen. Most winter days my fingers were darn cold on the keyboard. Now I look forward to winter days in the office. Why didn't I install this years ago? Great unit.

I wanted a ventless heater that didn't need power. We have frequent, and sometimes extended, power outages and it GETS COLD when the stupid GAS FURNACE won't operate without power!

So I installed it myself in the basement (there was already a gas connection there from an old gas clothes dryer) in about a hour. No problem. The instructions explain everything, and list what you need to buy extra (a few pieces of "black iron pipe", some gas-safe Mylar tape to wrap the pipe threads, and a flexible gas appliance hookup line. I got everything from the appliance section of the local hardware store in one trip. Installation worked the first try. It lit right up on the first try, too. Wheeee!

Now we turn the darned thing on anytime we're working in the basement (like doing laundry) during the winter. Very easy to use, very reliable (I'm on it's second winter), and IT PUTS OUT A LOT OF HEAT!

This heater is a better quality then the blue flame kinds. If you are shopping make sure you buy the thermostate model and not the hight medium low models. Its worth the extra money so the heater will turn off and on automatically. The non-thermostat models stay on all the time either high, medium, or low flame.

I use this in my home in Ohio and it heats my two story three bedroom home without using my furnace at 14 degrees!!!

I have since installed them in my rental apartments to help my tenants save money on their gas. I am shocked that everybody doenst have these!!! They are so efficient and cost so little money and are a 5 minute installation!

It's true you get what you pay for, whether it's cars, tv's or air. The Maxxair 4000 delivered maximum blowing capacity for a flooded basement. After returning home following a 2 week absence during subzero conditions, I was greeted with a broken supply line to the ice maker. The water had been leaking for days with over 3" of accumulation in our new log home's basement. We hadn't finished drywalling the basement and water was dripping off the ceiling like a rainforest. I rented 4, 1250 cfm units from the local rental agency until the 2 Maxxairs arrived 2nd day delivery from Amazon. I had the 4 rentals lined up on the wall directly below the broken line and the wall was still dripping wet after after 31 hours of blowing 82 degree air. Within 48 hours of using the Maxxairs the entire basement walls, ceiling,&floors were completely dry with no warping! The cost of 4 rental was just a bit more than the total cost of the 2 Maxxairs. Since the purchase, my neighbors used them for quick drying paint and I've leased them twice through word of mouth for other unlucky homeowners with waterdamage.

This blower really moves plenty of air. It seems well made as the housing is roto-molded polyethylene. It's a bit heavy though due to its large size, but what do you expect for a fan that moves this much air? The cord on it is actually 25 or 30 feet long (description says it's 10 feet long). After searching the net extensively, I came to the conclusion this blower was the best breeze for the buck. No other high output fan came close to the price of this one.

The intake grilles are plastic and the output grille is wire. The squirrel cage inside is stamped steel (as are most). There are 3 speeds and the only downside to this thing is that even at its lowest speed it's sometimes too much air for what I'm doing. I use it to ventilate my shop for welding fumes among other things.

Overall, an excellent buy since it's got Free Super Saver shipping (and I'm in Hawaii to boot!) Cost to ship this thing would be very high otherwise.

Honest reviews on MAXXAIR HVCF4000 4000 CFM High Heavy-duty Carpet and Floor Drying

This unit clearly moves a lot of air. However, the first unit I received had an off center squirrel cage blower and vibrated horribly, particularly at low speed. I had to spend $80 sending it back to the manufacturer who promptly replaced it with another unit under the warranty.

The second unit also has a vibration caused by a visibly off center blower. It was not as bad as the first one, but was not satisfactory. I wound up using a Rigid blower to dry a flooded basement, which is lower capacity, but which ran smoothly on all speeds with no vibration.

I was most disappointed with the MaxxAir PB 4000. Many dollars invested for an initially poor result. Update: The second unit was just replaced under the one year warranty and the manufacturer paid the return freight. The service level of the manufacturer has been outstanding. The manufacturer's customer representative was most helpful as we worked through this. I have now been served well by the manufacturer and am satisfied with the current replacement product.

I don't know about you,

but I have cold feet.

Like almost always.

The dress code at work also makes it a bit hard to keep my feet warm. Dress shoes, nylons, and yes...a dress.

One day while talking to a fellow cold-footed friend, she mentioned that we could use Cozy Legs Heaters. She showed me hers, discreetly tucked under her desk, and explained how they worked. Who knew these wonderful inventions even existed? Boy, had I been missing out.

Cozy Legs Heaters are safer, more cost-efficient, energy-efficient, and do the trick for small spaces, especially in an office setting. Mine sits under my desk about 8 to 12 inches from my legs. It provides an even, warm, radiant heat that is just right to keep me warm, but not hot. After turning it on, I notice my feet and legs warming up in just a few minutes. I also like that it is quiet. There is no noise from a fan. love it! It was exactly what I was looking for and I no longer have cold feet at work!

I would say these heaters are ideal for under your desk either at home or at work. If you are looking to heat an entire room, you may want to look for more traditional space heaters.

This would be a five star review if the description were accurate.

The description says it has a thermostat. There is none. It simply has Low and High, and you can get some variations in between. It does not regulate itself to maintain a desired temperature, as would be indicated by the description "thermostat".

To be honest, though... Based on the price, I pretty much figured that it would not have one, and it does what I expected it to do.

I think the description should be amended.

I am ordering the much more expensive 20k and 30k versions of this heater. I expect they will actually have a thermostat... hopefully.

I purchased this heater for a rental unit on the back of my house on hopes of reducing the electric bill. The blue flame option was what I needed since the space is limited and I dont want my tenant to complain about his furniture getting too hot or even himself by standing on front of it. Installation was kind of easy, I like the fact that it comes with expansors, and required screws, the only tricky part was to reach the back wall panel on the bottom to secure it to the wall.

Settings are low or hi, my tenant says that it works great and he is just not trying to find a happy point. Will be updating rating as I heard more from him.

Sorry to read another reviewer who had problems with his Model 157. Mine has worked perfectly for several months now. I chose the Model 157 rather than the Model 154 in spite of that reviewers comments. I'm glad I did.

UPDATE: It has been working perfectly for over a year now!

I installed it above the open stall of my elderly mother's doorless shower directly in the rising mist and high humidity. I run it (and another 1250 watt portable heater) for several minutes before her shower and total running time each use is probably about 30-45 minutes. It has never failed and the (large) bathroom warms up a LOT. Haven't measured the temperature, but it gets "toasty" in there (and as humid as a sauna.) I was worried the high temperature and moisture would be an issue, but they have not been a problem. In other words, it gets plenty warm in there without tripping any high-temperature safety feature in the unit.

I chose the Model 157 because of the heavy-duty element. It takes a couple minutes to fully heat up to red-hot, but that's fine. I think it will last a lot longer than the thin spiral wire element of the Model 154. In my opinion, it's well worth the extra cost.

I bought this item to replace one that had gone bad after 40 years. It was an 85 year old lady friend of mine and she said I was a 'gift from God' after I put it in. This was the easiest bathroom appliance I have ever had to istall. A monkey could put this in. a silicone grommett or washer for the screw holding the screen on could cut down on some chatter/vibration I heard. Other than that it works great.

Best Deals on Broan Model 157 Low-Profile Solid Wire Element Ceiling Heater

This heater is great...it really cranks out the heat. I live in an older house, and replaced the Broan model 158. However, I've learned the hard way that the thermal switch on this unit is not reliable. Once the unit turns itself off via the thermal switch, it won't come back on. I've went through three thermal units before I learned my lesson. With the 158 the thermal switch would reset itself and I would be able to use the unit again. So if you really want this unit, buy a timer switch to go with it.

If I had to do it over again, I wish I would have gone with another 158. It worked fine on the old fashioned toggle switch.

Was looking for a bit of supplemental heat in master bathroom on cold mornings. We already have wall lighting, nice ceiling vent fan but found this for a bit more heat to replace another ceiling light fixture, didnt want or need another light or fan combo. I also bought a timer to replace flip switch, my fear being might be left on all day by accident. This replaced a ceiling mounted light fixture pefectly, gives off a fair amount of heat after 5 min or so and was pretty reasonably priced, looks ok more flat platinum color than bright chrome/silver, but works well for the money spent with no other home modifications.Got what we wanted.

Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

It was ordered through Electric Motor Warehouse. Orded on Moanday, Feb.1, 2010 and received on Thursday, Feb. 04, 2010. Pretty fast for standard ground delivery. The old induced draft blower fan bearings had become heavy. Shooting m/c oil helped for a couple of days till this unit arrived. All installing holes matched up good. Old motor had blac/white leads coming out of it. The motor on this assembly simply had two unmarked spade male connectors. I cut off the wire from the old motor and installed two female spade connectors. Polarity did not matter (it worked fine) upon connection :-). The direction of rotation was correct (clockwise when viewed from the motor end, as opposed to viewing from the shaft end). Although unmentioned in description, it came with a weatherstipping style. self sticking roll of gasket. Cut and stick on to seal this assembly against the body of the furnace (I have used cork gasket strips with black silicone with success in the past). The motor is open design with a fly wheel at the end. It had sufficient clearance from the furance door. There is a plastic adapter mating part to connect the outlet of this blower assembly to the furnace flue. This plastic adapter is not part of this (or any other blower that I compared). It needs to be re-used and tends to split easily upon pushing it on due to age/brittleness from heat. I used black silicone to fix it.

This was the lowest cost part when I compared several websites. Even Electric Motor Warehouse own website had 4 higher priced units as replacements. They all appear generic and similar. A local parts house wanted $250.00 for a simialr after market replacement part.

Old motor is a crimped sealed unit. Cannot be easily opened to R&R bearings. The squirrel cage set screw also appeared frozen or galled in place. Not worth repairing in my opinion. Recycled. Respectfully submitted:
