RJF Avoid the cheapo Honeywell one. I bought it and returned it. Very poor quality. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clayton717 Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 This is the type of heater I use. I work in a 10 x 12 shed and I put a 4x8 addition on it. I keep the shop around 50 when not working, and around 70 when I am in there working. It has no issues keeping it warm. It is 220 v. If something happens to it I will buy another one.

Rockytime Posted November 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Looks like a great heater. What is the footprint and what is the cost? OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roughly 14 x 14 x 18 it hangs from my ceiling. Depends on where you get it, but cost around $ 120. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted November 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 That is quite a bit larger than mine but the price is reasonable. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodmaster1 Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Heater repair today I usually have to do this once a year. Cleaned out the hole for the vacuum switch and cleaned the carbon off the heat sensor. It is now backup and running 68 degrees inside 43 outside.

Woodrush Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 I'm on my second one of these. It goes from 25000-80000 BTU. It is classed as an indoor propane heater as long as it is within 4ft of a 1/16" open window. It heats 1900 sq ft. Absolutely no propane smell. I heated my house for a night when my furnace gave out.I get over 20 hours out of a BBQ tank on low OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
