My questions are:

1) Is that temp setting OK or should it be higher/lower?
2) How long and how often I should I have it run when it drops below the set temperature?
3) Where can I buy the official Danger, Thin Ice sign?

Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure about questions 1 & 2 but a quick google of "thin ice signs" brings up lots of options. Good luck
