Q: Does the thermostat have an off position?

This unit does NOT have a positive off. It does shut off if turned all the way counter clockwise IF the room temperature is above 44 degrees F or so. Temperatures below this will cause the unit to run indefinitely unless that temperature is reached. We discovered this in a vacation house in the California Sierra that is vacant much of the winter. Temperatures often are in the teens, twenties and thirties and the three units we have cycled constantly in this weather. We called Cadet to complain and they sent us three replacement thermostat switches WITH a positive off position for $22 each ($71 total with tax). Cadet's wiring directions are ambiguous (I'm an electrician) but I was able to figure it out and now all three shut off in any weather. Cadet might make a unit with this positive off switch factory installed so, I would check with them first and get that part number if they do. I can see nor reason why any of their units should come without a positive off switch. The unit works well otherwise, but I never would have purchased this model if I knew that there wasn't a positive off feature.

Q: Will this fit flush with a wall that has a 2 by 4 stud? The Fahrenheat wall heaters don't seem to...

The rough in is 8"W x 10-1/4"H x 4"D. The wall can measures 7-7/8"W x 11-1/2"H x 4"D. The grill measures 9"W x 12"H x 1"D

Q: Does the thermostat have full OFF position, or is Low the lowest setting

The lowest setting is not low it is off. Turn knobs all the way to left is off

Q: I would like to install 2 of these in a garage. Can I bypass the builtin thermostat and control both heaters with a wall thermostat?

Yes. The built in thermostat can be eliminated and the wall thermostat can be wired direct. The wall thermostat will need to be line voltage.
