Xtreme Heaters Boat Engine Compartment Heater | Large 800w Bilge Heater - For Boats Up To 35 | Boat Heater, Well House Heater, Camper/RV Heater, & Marine Heater - Safe Self Regulating Bilge Heater

It comes on at 40 degrees or so, and turns off at 50 or so. Not bad!!

I have mounted it on the underside of the engine space hatch cover. I tested it as the instructions say by putting it in my freezer for an hour, then taking it out and plugging it in. It turned on as it should then after a warming up period turned off. It ran pretty quietly with a gentle heated air flow in a way I don’t think will blow a breaker. Be sure to close off any vents or other ways outside air can get in and warm air out.

Been riding the danger wagon for a couple seasons with a traditional ceramic heater to keep the engine room ice free during our Alaskan winters (southeast Alaska) and finally decided to hit up Safetown,USA and spring for one of these. Long cord (20’) is super helpful to make it to a dedicated outlet and leave the surge protectors and y splitters for the birds and the bees. Didn’t seem to push a lot of air at first so I wasn’t sure what was up but after a couple days I saw the temp rise on up during a big freeze we just had. We monitor our boat remotely- 40’ Tri-cabin trawler- and had readings of 8° F outside and engine room read out at 32° F so I’m super excited to say this one gets full support from us! No frozen pipes here! Also: we get power outages from time to time in our remote Alaskan town and have made plenty of trips back to the boat to reset the older heater we ditched but this one just turns back on when power comes back. Bingo big time baby!

Works great. I mounted it on a board to keep it from sliding around. Keeps temp in engine compartment at a safe level.

Used it while trying to figure out how to winterize a boat. Winter storm came through and encountered no problems.

Just got around to putting my boat back into the water and have absolutely no problems. The heater obviously did its job in preventing freeze damage during the final couple of cold spells in early spring. Will use it again in the late fall when the weather turns cold again. Although I will continue to winterize my boat during the winter, (in case of power failure during a snow/ice storm) this is a great way to extend your boating season.

This is exactly what we needed to keep the bilge warm for the winter in Charleston. Easy to install, good directions and lots of safety features. It was recommended by someone who has them over the years and they are reliable.

Easy to install! Gives me more use of my boat in the winter. I live in the south were temps almost never go below freezing for a few hours and gives me peace of mind that the engine compartment is nice and toasty!

Great value of product

They say the best boat youll ever have is the one your friend owns....I have found this to be true :) I have had friends with cruisers, speed boats, and wake boats (and have owned one for a short while), I have purchased Xtreme Heaters for all of them as a way to say THANKS for sharing your boats with my family and occasionally contribute gas as well ;) My friends boats are a mix of dry dock, trailered, on a lift, or in the water and none have had issues with these heaters installed.....and we do get down to freezing and below in the winter here in GA. One of my friends says he sleeps better not worrying about his boat any more. Xtreme is easy to contact if installation questions come up, always helpful with no condescending attitude. Kudos Xtreme!
