Looks like you'll be warm while working all winter. Just don't get fumed out! Those always tend to bug my eyes and nose after prolonged time of use in a enclosed area.

I got to many air gaps for that to happen.
I know how they like to take oxy. out of the air.
It was cheap.

Nice one. got pretty much the same thing. Mine runs on diesel, kerosene, and jet fuel (which kinda scares me)

I can heat the entire 3 car garage/ shop to 70 deg. in about 10 min.
Do you have a thermostat for it too?

Nice buy. I have a similar one and I love it. I've used it for over 25 years. For what it's worth, I had problems with it once and had it fixed. The repair guy said even though they claim kerosene or diesel, never use diesel (I was), only use kerosene. I've used only kerosene ever since and it's been problem free. I don't know if that advice applies to one like yours or not, just thought I'd mention it. Oh, and when you light yours up again, could you point it west? We could use the heat over here. LOL.

That's for sure. Mine is fine until it stops, then fume city.
I was just thinking today. Mine's a 115,000 btu heater and it's insanely hot. I can't even imagine yours. Are you heating an airplane hanger or something? LOL
