Mr. Heater 45,000btu Tank Top heater review

[@OutnBacker]

At 3:40 he mentions a fan for circulation. This is good advice since propane exhaust produces a LOT of moisture. If you use this type of device much, and your shop has bare steel parts in it, or sheetrock walls, mildew and rust will occur. The fan and an open window - just a tad - will keep that from being a problem. Anyone who has an RV will know this.

2:39 I've used the tank-top style for home and business for a number of years. They do insert a lot of moisture/humidity into the air. There are some that are double headed. My current 3-car garage has a 15-foot peaked ceiling so not really efficient for me.

[@HeadFlowInc]

I’ve got to get something like this heater! It’s hard to port cylinder heads when your freezing and the compressor doesn’t like it too much either. 👍👍👍

[@beeterolds]

It's worth it bro. Hopefully you have a low ceiling. I'm going to put a fan up and point it down to move the air better

[@Jflowboston1]

Got one last week, is working awesome

[@beeterolds]

As long as you have a fan blowing the heat back down this heater is a beast !

[@gabrielgutierrez7208]

Did u figure out how to get a spark to turn it on with out a lighter?

[@tyferguson564]

Those LS engine got my attention

[@FallenRLO2]

50percent off at Lowe’s as of 11Feb2020. Had to grab one. The tank buddies are 22 bucks.

[@DougHinVA]

I got a single burner heater in case my 80 gallon outside tank for the gas logs runs out. I'm gonna set it on low for a full week once and hope I never have trees fall again like that year....

[@honeybadgerproductions9226]

Huh?

[@futbol1972]

I have a man cave ina 3 car garage about 650sq ft with 8ft ceiling. I wonder if the double headed will be better than this? We are spending christmas in garahe playing pool, darts and foostball. Garage and doors are insulated and garage gets around 45-50 degrees farenhight cold in garage

[@JohnnyBlaze6954]

With Electric and natural gas prices doubling in CA, I’m about to buy one of these for my house lol. No joke, our House costs so much to heat!

[@PUCK.GUN.LAWS1]

I got one of these and its awesome it can get my 20ft by 30 ft garage to easily 80 plus degrees wit a fan sitting behind it in about 10-20 min in freezing temperatures i light it get it hot in my garage in like i said 20 min tops and cut it off keep my doors closed and only light it when it gets cold it will also heat my entire 3br 2ba house if i loose power wit ease no problem it will be so hot it will run u out the house

How long will she burn with a tank

[@wemcal]

Great video, three years later.. do you still use it and how do you like it

[@beeterolds]

Yes

[@dannyrobles2668]

How long does one tank last on low?

[@gabrielblacksmith1994]

Does the propane smell when its on?

[@beeterolds]

Not at all

[@salome7254]

Can it be used in a tent going camping soon

[@beeterolds]

No way puts off so much heat itll melt the tent real quick

[@redhorseman5701]

Do you have to crack a bit of window or door while your using it? TIA.

[@beeterolds]

It helps.

[@RockemSockem22]

These all say outdoor use only. It is safe in a house?

[@thedailywin537]

No. The CO would accumulate quickly. These heaters are best for construction sites and garages or sheds with a fan and/or a door kept slightly ajar for ventilation. Don't forget a CO detector, also.

[@beeterolds]

Shop use only with ventilation

[@canonman223]

Why is the red push button needed? What does it do?

[@beeterolds]

You hold it while the unit is heating up. Once it gets to operating temperature you release it.

[@thedailywin537]

It provides a priming flow of propane.

[@robertdivizio3489]

Page three of Operating Instructions and Owners Manual states ". . . do not use in any type of tightly enclosed area." So be careful!

[@EvanLightner304]

How many hours do you get out of a tank?

[@thedailywin537]

Figure ~8 hours of run time on High (40K BTUs) when using a 20 lb. tank.

[@wdghhutfgfghggghhh1050]

Home Depot has them for $61.78 now

[@mechanicandskills7215]

how long would it last on a tank 8 Hr's ?

[@beeterolds]

About that. But it does put out some heat

[@mechanicandskills7215]

@@beeterolds thats what i need for up north thank you for your feed back appreciate it thanks for the upload ....cheers

[@Tikijoe101]

Got this bad Boi and watched your video among others. Tried watching how you lit it. This thing sucks. You have to keep the red knob pushed in the entire burn or it goes out. Doesn't maker how long you hold it, once you let go it just burns out. Not sure this heater is handy if it makes you use a hand the whole time.

[@beeterolds]

You hold the knob until the heating element turns red. If that still doing do the trick the thermocouple is defective. Ive used mine for a few yrs now. It works nicely

[@thedailywin537]

Your heater is defective. What you describe is a known issue.

[@silverhair3933]

Money well spent in this weather..

[@BrookeButterworth]

Can I use it in a van?

[@beeterolds]

I mean. If you wanna live life on the edge be my guest sister

[@Catfish2255]

Absolutely not..The heat that radiates up will burn any thing above it in a van..
