Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Propane Radiant Heater - Mr. Heater F270700 MH35LP with 35,000-BTU Output, Multi-Purpose by Anita Barlow

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent fireball

I searched for a long time before deciding on this device. It works well but quickly consumes a 20lb cylinder, it seems like maybe 4-6 hours. It would be nice if you could regulate the heat output. The first time you do this it will take some time to clear the line of any stagnant air in the supply line. It can even catch fire for a short time and then flush again for a long time. You're not doing anything wrong, just keep pushing the pilot's thermocouple bypass button even if you smell propane. Hold down the spark igniter to avoid a large fuel buildup. When it ignites, and I've found it to be every time I fire the device, a large ball of fire shoots out from all sides of the device, burning the fur on the back of my hand. Keep your pets away. I'm surprised every time this happens as I flinch in my natural urge to avoid injury. You may need to wiggle the visible wires to make sure the thermocouple is working properly because if the device lights up at first but doesn't light up after the screen turns red and the device vaporizes like a trapped animal (yes that's ok, when the metal heats up). ), it's probably just a bad electrical connection. Can't say it warms a four car garage in temperatures ranging from well below freezing to tropical heat, but certainly warm enough to work comfortably in a shirt. Be careful not to expose yourself to excessive toxic fumes.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Slightly torn
