The short answer is Our house has a door on the first floor that opens to it. Despite the fact that it is not yet winter, this heater has 30,000 BTUs A fast way to heat an entire house The walk upstairs and down took around 20 minutes. In the case of two-car garages, I would say the same. As I plan on moving this unit to my unheated basement shop, which is at ground level in back, I will turn it off at that point There is basically a one car garage back there and I expect this to outperform it. Here is one thing I wish to add In this case, it is a blue flame. It's the radiant heaters that I prefer, (of which Mr. Heater makes one just like this) - I've used shop heaters before - There are elements in them that look like clay, but they Heat will be given off by the things that are heated in the space and then by those items. Whenever I could, I used to aim one at the tool box on my roll away. Whether you need this heater for a loft or an area with a lot of space above, the radiant version may be best as it will heat the items closest to it and it will have less air flowing up at the same time. This is either a safe bet or it isn't.
This lamp has a pilot light that stays on at all times unless the dial is turned off. If the thermostat dial setting is set so that the heater should be turned on, the heater will begin to operate.

Selected User Reviews For Mr. Heater 30,000 BTU Vent Free Blue Flame Natural Gas Heater MHVFB30NGT
The heater is really good. The blower on the electric central air furnace is quieter and does not produce as much noise and drafts as it used to. Using the blue flame, you can heat your home very efficiently and without any odor from gas. There is a need to check all of the joints of the pipe system to ensure there are no leaks and that there is sufficient fresh air entering the home. It's important to have a reliable carbon monoxide gauge. My Kidde monitor always shows zero CO. There was a minor difference between the bracket in the instructions and the bracket as it was drilled, but drilling a couple of new holes on the bracket made it work. There is a 30,000 Btu gas heater in my home. In the event of a power outage when I cannot run the furnace, this will be great to have around. At the right bottom of the heater is an outlet for a 3/8 inch pipe.
The parts are inexpensive (except for a pipe threader, which I didn't have), and it only took him a few hours. It's so awesome this heater! You'll be running out of the house in no time! Get a hose kit when you need it, it itself comes with everything you need, and you'll never have to buy pipe dope again, because the gas man has his own. As far as I'm concerned, there is no need for a fan either since the heat will circulate itself naturally. If you feel that you need it, you can always wait and buy it later. There are 5 settings on the clock, but we usually keep it at 2 or maybe 3 if it is very You should try to avoid placing your air conditioner in the same room as your thermostat, since it will likely max it out, and then your other vents won't receive heat. Hence, it has a built-in thermostat so it can automatically turn on and off as needed. You will get a faint smell of gas for a second when it turns on or off if you are standing above it. This heater does the job well, and I'm very happy!.
It used to be that I was an HAVC Technician. A car explosion nearly blew up my refurbished unit in my garage after I ordered it. clear now that the pot metal elbow on the inlet was replaced by the factory and not tested, a problem many others have complained about as well. After I installed the unit, I leak tested it to ensure that the joints were all solid. My former job as a HAVC technician says the unit functioned as advertised but there was a bit more part of the order than I thought should be there. We didn't notice the gas smell in our garage until the following day when my daughter called me after school. The factory fitting leaking gas just inside the base of the machine was discovered as I rushed home. In response to my request, Amazon's non-technical tech support agreed to refund my money and I may consider purchasing a NEW device. In the event that I order another, I will follow with a The only thing I'm worried about right now is whether everything will turn out okay.
Then, verify that there are no leaks from the outside. This was actually the second time we got one. In the first one, there was a terrible smell and it was defective. In order to determine the origin of the leak, I used soapy water to make sure there were no external leaks. The heater was replaced by Amazon at no charge, so aside from the inconvenience of having to pull it off its wall and detach it, it wasn't a With regards to the second one, it has operated without odor and without any We installed this in our sunroom that remained so much cooler than the rest of the house in the winter that we couldn't use it. There were a few electric heaters in the sunroom, but they did not work well for much of the winter, so sitting next to them was not an option. My heater finally turned out to be a gas heater, and it made a huge Having the sunroom open year round not only allows us to enjoy the sunroom, but it has generated a significant reduction in our gas costs. We will have saved enough money on our gas bill within five years to pay for the heater and we will be able to enjoy more time in our sunroom. If your unit emits an odor, you're dealing with a bad regulator or a leak. In the event that the unit is hooked up properly and functioning properly, there should be no odor.
This is such an efficient heater - I can't imagine anything better The best investment I have ever made. There are about twenty 1500 Watt oil filled electric radiators of 5,000 BTU each inside of this device -- Energy costs were 1/20 of what we were paying previously. The main oil furnace died at the end of last year. Rather than wait until winter came, I bought the next best thing - an HE gas gas system since I was unable to save up enough money for that. A fraction of the cost is possible. It's 11 degrees outside right now, and 900 /sq/ft on level 1 is about 70, and 1 bedroom and bath upstairs are both A college student's life They were locked in their rooms There are probably at least two people in their 40s in those Outside, it would only need to be about 30 degrees for the rooms to reach 74 degrees I expect it to be 75 degrees today When my bedroom gets too hot, I open a kids' room. The second heater will be for the basement. It lets the air circulate up similar to the one in the living room and evens out the temperature of the first floor (the kitchen across from the heater is now in the 60s when these temperatures are low). When I have a basement unit, I'll be over 70 in my entire house if it's 10 below and high winds.
When I bought this last year, it did have the fitting to connect to the gas line. However, I bought 3 more this year and they did not come with the 90-degree When I called Mr. Heater, they told me it didn't come with the fitting any more because it was aluminum and it strips My suggestion was that they should of made a new one using different materials and included it with the heater instead. There is no mention anywhere on the web page that the 90 degree fittings are no longer included. The Mr. Heater gas line connection kit also does not include the 90 degree fittings. It is so stupid of Mr. Heater to admit they made a substandard product and do nothing to correct it. Buying a TV and having no place for you to connect your cable line or TV antenna would be like buying a TV without a connection on the back. To do this, I need to get four new fittings at the hardware store after removing the 90 degree fitting from the old one. During the phone conversation with Mr. Heater, I recorded the conversation, and I wish I could upload it on here for everyone to hear how stupid he has become! For this to work, you will have to go to the store and get the 90 degree fitting you need to attach to the bottom of this to connect your gas line. I am Mr. The heater is a complete MORON!.
