Tools and Hardware Reviews of Lux Products ELV4-005 Programmable Thermostat for Radiant Heat
Customer Review: money saver
Summary: 5 Stars
We looked all over until we found this, since we wanted to regulate a space heater at the 120 v. level. We had never done aluminum hard wiring before and burned out the nuts the first try. Our local hardware store guru clued us into using the special aluminum paste which we did and we are now sitting comfortable and with a lot better electric bill. Don't let hard wiring scare you off.Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased 6 of these for the house we recently bought. It has ceiling heat, and the old dielectric thermostats were terrible. The Lux ELV1 has already made a huge difference. No more wild temperature swings. Still waiting for the first electric bill, but don't expect anywhere near the $400-$500 bills the previous owners payed last winter.
Customer Review: It does have it's drawbacks, but . . . . .
Summary: 4 Stars
It does have it's drawbacks, but all in all, I am glad that I purchased it. The main drawbacks are that the display lettering is small, and there is no backlight. I keep a little LED keychain light nearby to see the display when it's darker in the room.
Programing it is easy, and the overide function is quick and accessible.
Customer Review: energy saver
Summary: 5 Stars
I all ready one of these items in use and love it. Electric heat is more difficult to find this item for and now I need to save energy this year so I started looking for this item in the stores and couldn't find them so I finally sent for them through amazon.com and with in a week I had them to put in all the rooms. They work great.Customer Review: Maybe just unlucky...
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased 5 of these locally last fall and had to return 3 as defective...tempeture off by 4 to 11 degrees or didn't come on within 2 months of operation. I thought I would try this older model and see if they are any better.
