electric greenhouse heater

TillyFliss

i have just bought an electric greenhouse heater and am concerned that the frost setting is set at 10 degrees. This seems somewhat high to me. does anyone have an opinion? if you agree with me do you know of a heater that i can set at a lower setting? Thank you

You need a froststat. I have a thing I plug into the socket, the fan heater plugs into that,  and then have the fan heater on full blast on all bars.  That works a lot better than trying to have the fan heater  working to a temp, as the stat and the heater are separated.

Something like this. The exact one I have came from greenhouse people but it isn't listed anymore.   I also have a max /min thermometer near the most sensitive plant, so I know it works.
