Tools and Hardware Reviews of Howard Berger Ceiling-Mount Quartz Heater - 5120 BTU, 1500 Watts, Model# 125115Customer Review: Does exactly what I want. Summary: 5 Stars
I have been looking high and low for quite some time for exactly this.
A simple plug in ceiling mounted directional heater.
Writing this review while sitting outside under it. I live in Western Washington near Seattle. There are many rainy days, like right now, where I want to sit outside under my covered patio but the low to mid 40 degree weather drives me back inside when my fingers start chilling from the cold and make typing tough. About 4 feet above me this works just fine. However, I can imagine if the temp was 30 something or lower and/or with a decent breeze then the heat would not be enough. Keep in mind this unit plugs into a standard 15 amp outlet so don't expect blazing BTU's.
Install was simple and tomorrow I will install an electrical socket a few feet from it (instead of the extension cable I am now using temporarily).
For the price I have no complaints, however, I would have liked a few things that this does not.
1. An On/off switch for the light. Didn't see one but I could be wrong as I set this up in the dark.
2. More heat. However, I did the math on this real quick. At 1500 watts it is drawing 12.5amps at 120 volts so this is about as much as you can get away with. Some older breakers that can't hold constant 15amp draw (and/or may have a few other things running on the same circuit) will 'trip' open. So, this is about as powerful as it gets on standard home wiring. Can't complain there!
In closing, great little unit, quick install, and after I put an outlet near it, will look like a professional setup. Note: Off set an outlet at least 1 foot away so it is not directly above the unit and make sure to tie the excess cabling off away from the unit as the whole thing does get pretty toasty :).
