What size tank are you going to use and what is your expectation of how long it will run?
The specs state a fuel tank size of 40gal and a run time of 11hrs. A 40 gal tank is really big, unless they mean 40lb, which is still a pretty big tank.

Gonna hook it up to the house line (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Also, that is 11 hrs at full blast, no?

I have a few propane heaters in the shop.
I found last year when I used them in a tight room, with few air leaks, I would need to open the door every so often the get in new oxygen and let out the C02.

It was not pleasant, a headache of sorts.

The kerosene one give a headache, but it produces so much heat you can turn it off once in a while.

Just keep that in mind as you start using it, the C02 will get to you...

I still use them, but in the open shop more than the tight space....
Works totally fine in the leaky open shop.
