My husband bless his heart had a 12'x18' sun room added to the back of the house this summer. It has 3 walls of glass that are 12" from the floor to about 4" from the ceiling. Fall winter and spring I will be using it to over winter some of my container plantings, rhizomes and bulbs, plus starting seedlings in the spring.
At first he wasn't going to heat it and then I figured with WI winters my tropical hibiscus, alstromeria, etc couldn't stay in there and would need to come in the house anyway.
He decided a heater would be a good thing after all.
He purchased a heater from BioTech research the EdenPURE 1000-XL.
Has anyone ever heard of this before?
It is supposed to produce safe clean economical heat by using Infrared Quartz Heating elements that will prevent wasteful accumulation of heat on the ceiling. They are supposed to produce heat that is as safe as the infrared rays of the sun, producing natural outdoor heat indoors.
the heaters are supposed to have low operating and maintenance cost.
They are supposed to provide even heat distribution and warm floors.They operate at a max of 70 - 72 degrees and supposedly a room at 68* is supposed to feel like 72*.
My husband did not want to have to heat this room but he also wants to keep his living room which is where all the plants would go.
I just wondered if any one had heard of this particular one and had any opinions one way or the other. He's doing this for me and I'd hate for it to be a bust for him. I only want to keep it between 40 -45 degrees anyway in the worst of the WI winter.
Any opinion would be greatly appreciated.
