light and warm for HVAC

This heater is very easy to install and use. Starting is a little scary as small waves of flammable propane wash out of the element and repeatedly pop until the element heats up and then lights up with a reassuring red light.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • No

If only it worked Waste of money

IT keeps shutting down. I called the company twice. Dismantled according to instructions. Nothing works. They say the oxygen sensor is off. I use it outdoors. The same thing. Give me a break. Of course I want it to work because it's a great idea.

Pros
  • Ruggedized
Cons
  • Legacy model

Good heating, suitable for heating, ventilation and air conditioning

wanted to buy this heater so that I can get rid of the cold in the tent in the morning and in the evening before going to bed. Not very convenient to leave it on while sleeping. I bought a carbon monoxide alarm just in case. Every time I turned the heater on it had a reading of 0ppm and the heat produced was perfect.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small house
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

I think it would be good in a tent. My wood stove pipe burst so I got this. This heat is rising. The only thing I could warm were my frozen hands with the heater right next to me. It went through a 1lb propane tank in 4 hours when set on "low". I should have bought a bigger one. It arrived quickly and hooked up to the cylinders easily. It gives good warmth if it's no more than 1 foot away, but only to keep numb hands over it. learn life. This applies to an area of 225 square meters. ft. That is

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Easily clogged and does not burn. Drops out

Heater clogged and stopped burning after several uses. Attempts to blow through the cord and clean the wick were unsuccessful. Basically, the safety function kicks in when not enough flame is generated. So if there is a blockage, even a small one, it turns off the heating. It can be anything: cobwebs, a few grains of sand, etc. This heater is not reliable. The heater I received might have additional issues as well. The GloveNSafety seller was unable to resolve the situation when I sought a…

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Fragile and unreliable

I bought 2 of these. The first was from a hardware store. It is said to have an oxygen sensor to prevent carbon monoxide. "I fell and hurt my ribs. I've been so dizzy since morning. The liver swells up,” said my friend in the tent. These are symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. I fixed this with a piece of chimney from the dryer that supplies fresh air to the heater. Then someone accidentally knocked him over. It never worked again. It was submodel number 000. The company discontinued it so I

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Something different

Plus it worked great in my van hooked up to my 5 gallon fuel.

Sometimes the regulator behaves a bit strange, and weak flame wines on low level. Shifting to high for a few minutes and then back to low usually fixes this, but that's because you just bought the product new. Also, it worked great in my van hooked up to my 5 gallon propane tank, non-leaching hose and fuel filter attachment. I have a carbon monoxide detector mounted on the ceiling just in case, and I always shut off the fuel line from the tank so the heater burns all the propane from the lines…

  • The best in its niche
