Since these units vent out through a tube to the window, be sure you check around the window for air leaking in. A small piece of insulation will take care of any problem. I love mine and was able to get in my sewing room all through our very cold winter. In a few weeks when July is miserable, I'll switch to air-conditioning!

dang! Wish mine had a heater element too! Learn something new every day!

i just turn on my iron to heat up my room LOL!
