Mr. Heater F242540 45,000 BTU 540 Degree Propane Heater

[@servantofjesuschrist884]

This was definitely helpful! To watch followed the same instructions as you mentioned how to set it up and all went well... Thanks God bless!!

[@JaredC63]

Random internet stranger here saying I appreciate you! Not a bad deal for $90 and your video helped alot!

[@jrvalentino7948]

I bought one of these and it works so good! Thanks for the review

[@wooddawg4868]

You can use propane indoors just as long as you have ventilation and/or use in large areas of home. Propane is the cleanest fuel to burn indoor just like natural gas, but just like anything that burns it needs air so using a heater like this in a small room one should crack a window at minimum.

[@hermanfabela5637]

Thank you for the review. I'm considering it for outdoor use...as in watching soccer practice and games.

[@whitemorn]

Thanks for the review. To light mine I use a long stemmed utility (fire place) lighter. Be sure to light the screen mesh on the side only. I held the red button in for 28 seconds which worked beautifully. Also, if you place the tank with the valve connection toward you and mount the heater as far to the left as possible, the gas hose is pretty well positioned and the valve faces the top. It was hard to tell on this video what the difference between high to low was but, there is a definite drop in redness at the burner as you switch down. I like mine very much, which I bought because I have an apartment above me and the renter's brought bed bugs in. The house is very old and it's impossible to deal with them other than high heat. It's much safer to use indoors (in my case), because I have 10 foot ceilings. I place the heater so that there is nothing combustible within 4 feet on all sides and stand it on a sheet of 3'x4' concrete board. If anyone wants to try this remember to remove all combustible liquids from the heated area, IE: nail polish remover, varnish, turpentine etc... Also, turn off any gas valves and open up all cabinet doors and drawers. DO NOT STAY in the room but be sure and place the unit where you can see it from an outside window. About every 10 minutes enter the room and feel the furniture to make sure you can leave your hand on it without feeling like you're getting burned. If you can't leave your hand on any surface, abort the treatment and turn the heater off at the main (tank) valve. Probably not a good idea to use it in a shop with sawdust or other combustible dust floating in the air.

Thank you for doing this review. I wanted to see it before I bought the Big Buddy Heater. I'm glad I did because now I'm going to buy this one instead of the Big Buddy. Thank you.

[@tommytuton7235]

I bought this four years ago and I use it in my garage when I drinking beer with my Buddy's and work on cars and it works great ( in Midwinter when its 20 below zero ) I recommended it, the garage gets so hot in its lowest setting that I'm just sitting there in a T-shirt drinking beer with my buddies I bought it at Menards on sale for $79.99

How big is your garage 1 car, 2 car garage?

I’m looking to buy this tomorrow so your review was helpful and right on time. Thank you!

Thanks for the review buddy. Great job. Two thumbs up.

Just picked this up for our lanai and it works greats best of all you can easily take it anywhere

[@johnj5556]

Thanks brother

[@dsmith3625]

Its 2024....and another thank you. Its just what we need.

[@rodneybrand8521]

Can it be connected to natural gas? Excellent review..

[@Euphroe]

Mount the burner a bit to the side; I.e. - not directly behind the outlet. (much easier on a one 'hand-hole' tank) and you will find that the hose will lead more fairly and you will be able to mount the valve right-side up.

[@khyreepleasant4905]

How did you ignite it though?

[@10Flat]

Thanks great review

[@DaZ70]

Great video thanks so much

[@DV77737]

Thank you! Awesome review. I’m getting one ☝️

[@rafaeloliva4656]

Awesome Just what I was looking for thank you you are the only one out there with his review just placed my order on Amazon will test it in my garage tomorrow nice warm garage with cold beers thank you again God bless you

[@TheCrawfordFive]

Thank you for posting this. I was having trouble tightening to the left! Also, the lighting would have been a nice addition, next time. It's a bit odd.

[@futbol1972]

could I use a force heater in my fully insulated 3 car garage about 630 sq ft with 8 ft ceilimgs for Christmas? I have a pool table in there and we will probably be playing pool during Christmas. I have some gaps around garage doors and also a 3 to 4 gap under door that goes to yard. So I don't know if this will be enough ventilation? I know force heaters are loud but we will have the music playing:) eventually I will get probably a Mr cool 18000 btu minisplit system to heat and cool garage. I also have a gym in there. I live in Clovis ca with a zone 9b I think

[@jegmusic08]

Great review, thanks.

[@codystanley2760]

Great vid I’m thinking of getting this for my Jon boat do you think this would work or should I get the mr heater big buddy? The pros of this is the 360 would give me and passengers heat but the cons is the size

[@phillipkristicockrell3968]

Thanks for the review! I have a Mr. Heater Big Buddy and I'm looking for something that kicks out more heat and is less bulky to pack. Also, if you don't care about using 1 lbs. propane bottles, this heater is probably the better way to go. You also have to buy the hose, fuel filter, and 4 D-cell batteries for the Big Buddy, so this is certainly the cheaper way to go!

[@tommytuton7235]

Where can I buy a thermal coupling for the heater just in case it goes out on me in the future I'll have it ready

[@barbier.family]

I had one of these but sent it back. Not sure how people can use these indoors. Ran mine for about 10 minutes and my eyes were watering from the fumes - Mr Heater makes much better options for indoor use.

[@BitsOfTruth]

You might like to move the attachment to one side or other of the tank's guard to release hose pressure before screwing in the gas line. I do this on my three globe heater. It does not have to be attached in the middle or straight across from gas outlet. (I found this out through experience) Does the box or other included info give us a clue to as to how long the 20lb tank will last on each setting?? I am thinking of getting one and would really like to know. (Please note that most tanks are only filled to 15lb unless you go some place that refills them and will put over 15lb in. Check the label) Thanks much. Good review.

[@denniswink1721]

it is really nice for doing things in garage in Wisconsin winter, really warms things up.

[@slatepantstag3129]

[@carolfranks1350]

I have a question...would you recommend that when I turn off the heater that I also turn off the propane supply on top of the tank???

[@carolfranks1350]

thank you for your instructions, the manual for my heater is too vague, it didn't even tell me what the red knob is for...you cleared up that question for me.

[@displayfireworks2008]

@@carolfranks1350 You hold the red knob in to light it. Hold the knob in until it get hot enough to keep the thermal couple open

[@fomocowboy]

Absolutely turn off the tank valve.

[@fabienpics]

THANK'S for the info 🏅🏅🏅🏅

[@carlosMENDOZA-eo6zn]

Excelente, saludos

[@Jflowboston1]

Do you know the reason why this heater work on 20 pounds tanks only?, I try to use on 40 pounds tank and do not stay on, thank you

[@ShipNavigator]

Can use it on any size tank. I used mine on various size tanks.

[@1607rosie]

I had a propane heater on top of the tank and I had some kind of leak in the valve ,and guess what ,it started the tank on fire . Kinda freaked me out , didn't explode but I'd prefer to keep tank as far away as possible. Even five feet would be better than sitting in top. I've read that propane has a low co2 and burns clean you can google that .

[@displayfireworks2008]

Thank is so weird you mentioned that because today I used this to work on my car and it started to make noise , get really hot and smell like it was burning.

[@mechanicandskills7215]

on full boar how long would it last on a full tank ?

[@ramlyfestyle9285]

Mine around 14hrs 20lb tank

Its a mixture of both. More high than low

[@twistof-faith1170]

The heat control switch will be the fault. It looks the same as the smaller ones which I have had and both of the adjustment knobs/valves broke.

[@jamiee172]

Dang, I wish I bought this before buying the Little Buddy heater.

[@XGalaxy4U]

Looks good. Yeah that should get the garage heated up in a hurry. I've got a 40,000 BTU kerosene torpedo heater that does. Of course it sounds like a jet engine and atomizes some fuel in the air. That's not good for you at all. Only problem with this one is it may deplete the oxygen. That would probably take awhile though and I open the door every now then for a few puffs off a cig.

[@jameskoralewski1006]

What happens if you get a gas leak at the tank and it works it way up to the burner? EXPLOSION CITY! The propane tank is too close to the burner in this configuration. They need to be separated by a hose of some length!

[@Bornintheseat]

Thanks!

I just bought one on clearance for $17.96 clearance at my local Dick's sporting goods

[@robertprestonsr2453]

Trust me... these types of heaters... BURN PROPANE LIKE CRAZY.... they are not at all FUEL EFFICIENT... (but they are hot and they do provide heat fast) For many purposes you are better off with a "blue flame" ventless lp gas heat, especially one with a THERMOSTAT built in-- and one that also has a continuously lit PILOT...

[@clarissamaclachlan1514]

[@teresapeabody2746]

I bought one and having to asseble the mounting bracket, SUCKS. They were not included or I lost the screws when I opened the box and then I cursed the engineer for not making a one piece bracket in the first place. I have half a mind to return mine and buy a different brand. Until they fix this stupid design flaw, I urge others to avoid this product.

[@andrewpaintball246]

Not worth the $ my heater broke within the first 1 year and a half. To top it off i only ran one tank of fuel through this unit and now it dose not work. What a joke. Mr. heater my ass more like Mr. Frustration maker. DON'T WAST YOUR MONEY LIKE I DID. 😭. now i have a 100$ paper weight. FML. Why cant companies make somthing that actually last. I will never buy Mr. Hearter brand anything as long as i live. Now im stuck in the cold working on stuff i HATE! mr. Heater. Does anybody have any recommended brands that actually work?
