Frequently Asked Questions

How does the New Hound Heater differ from the original Hound Heater units?
The new unit has many changes. First, it has a 100,000 cycle life thermostat. This will enable a well designed house to reach and maintain the pre-set temperature. Second, the all new rounded design has eliminated any corners. Third, I have built in a 150 watt "Mica" long lasting, extremely efficient, heating element. Lastly, it incorporates 2 heat shields, one internal and one external. The internal shield allows your pet to lay against the bottom half of the unit and the external one disperses heat more efficiently and protects the ceiling of your house.

What size pet house can I put the new Hound Heater in?
The Hound Heater Dog House Heater can easily heat a well insulated dog house up to 75 cubic feet. The beauty of the new heater is, because it is thermostatically controlled, it can go in a small house as well. Once the pre-set temperature has been reached it will turn off and on to keep your pet warm and dry.
*Very important! The Hound Heater must never be mounted on the ceiling.

Can I use a Hound Heater in my Igloo style house?
Absolutely! The new Hound Heater will mount the same as it would in a square house. (see mounting in an Igloo style house) It is important that you use nuts, bolts and washers instead of screws for mounting. It may sit slightly crooked but will work very well. The Hound Heater back stays cool so there is no problem or worry about melting the plastic. It is important that you either use a Critter Cord or some other cord protector, such as steel conduit, to keep your pet from chewing it.

Is there any assembly required with the Hound Heater Furnace?
Absolutely not! Simply follow the simple mounting instructions and plug in the heater.

What is a Critter Cord Protector?
Remember, the Hound Heater was designed so the cord is not accessible to your pet. This is not always possible and the Critter Cord is a great way to deter your pet from chewing the cord. My dogs hate the Critter Cord. I can't even get them to pick it up.

I installed my new Hound Heater Dog House furnace but the house is not warming up?
I have gotten this question often and the answer is always quite simple. Every house should contain insulation and every house should have some kind of door. Doing this will eliminate the two kinds of heat loss that occur. One is conductive and the other is infiltration. The first one can best be described by thinking of holding a soda-pop in the summer's heat, no can cooler. How long would the soda-pop can stay cold? The can cooler (insulation) stops the conductive loss from your hand to the beverage. The door or flap will trap the heat. Think of how your own house would feel if you left the front door open in the winter?

Hound Heater Deluxe Heater

Love it! Heats up my feral cat Jack’s house amazing! Took him a bit to get used too, but once he did he loved it. Came just in time for the cold spell, -40 temps and he was toasty warm ☺️🐾🖤

Hound heater

I bought a hound heater for my border collie puppies 14 years ago. I still have one of those dogs. She is part of the family. My old heater still works but not as good as it use to. So because the first heater was so great, I decided to buy the same heater again for our aging border collie Molly. I was pleasantly surprised by the upgrades on our new heater. We have really cold winters so this is perfect in her dog house. I don't have to worry about her being cold. Thank you for your tried and true hound heater. I would highly recommend this heater to anyone who needs one.

Very Satisfied

This is my 2nd Hound Heater. The first one lasted at least 15 years. I've been impressed with the upgrades including a fan and a much better location for the controls. So far I've been very pleased!

Rescue

We rescued two starving Bernese Mountain Dogs from an unattended enclosure and brought them home to face Wisconsin winters. What to do? A salesman for a competitor's product said his son had great success with your Hound Heater. We took him at his word, thanked him for his candor and now our beloved Ole and Lena (remember, Wisconsin) are safe and sound in their cozy winter quarters. We're satisfied and so are they.

Water Well Heat

Perfect! Like many homeowners I have a “small” above ground concrete well enclosure for water piping. Even with insulation the pipes froze on occasion. I installed this heater and on low setting it keeps inside at 50 degrees in freezing temps.

for northeast in november

So far so good. Set at low-med it seems to keep the doghouse pretty warm, but we are also using a heated pad on the floor. Wish there was a thermostat with temperatures and not just low med high.

Great Product

We bought this to keep warm our Great Dane's doghouse. We built a good size doghouse and insulated it and was wondering how we would heat it safely. Decided to take a chance on this product and it is working great. Quite and safe - not worried about our dog getting burn.

40 degree difference!

This little heater works great! So far its dropped down to 31 Fahrenheit outside but keeps the inside a consistent 68 to 71 with the thermostat set right at medium. The key is to have a well insulated dog house with doors to keep the heat in.

Best Buy ever

Purchased one over ten years ago and it is still working great. Energy efficient. Easy install. No worries that the dogs will get hurt. They sleep very comfortably when it's cold.

Absolutely Satisified ! ! !

I am very pleased with this Hound Heater Deluxe Furnace. I have about a 25 to 30 cu/ft mostly insulated dog house inside a shed. It does have a piece of carpet hanging in the doorway and there is an enclosure outside the door with another piece of carpet hanging in that doorway to keep out all drafts. I have found that if I set the thermostat just above low...it kept the house at 47 degrees with no dogs....with dogs and the outside temperature rising to 32, the dog house was 57 degrees. It is mounted on a non-insulated wall, and therefore reads a little cold and keep the house warmer than what the standard setting would if it were better insulated there. I am so pleased that even in cold temperatures, my dogs will be warm and comfortable here in Maine. It doesn't get hot at all on the lower half of the unit so I have no concerns that the dogs could get burned. All in all, a wonderful product ! ! !

Great Deal and wonderful performance.

I found this heater very easy to install and set up. So far, I am very satisfied with it's performance and I would recommend this item for anyone with a kennel for their dog. I have an indoor doghouse in my garage which is not heated, but it is insulated. It works great at keeping the kennel heated, at the desired temperature.
