Our Verdict
This heater puts out 215,000 BTU. That is enough to warm a space as large as 44,496 cubic feet. Think barns, warehouses, and big construction sites.
The 13.2-gallon tank runs for up to 7.5 hours. You refuel less and work more. It accepts both kerosene and diesel fuel.
This is not a home heater. It burns fuel and needs ventilation. Use it in open workshops, barns, or outdoor job sites.
The thermostat adjusts from 40°F to 110°F. It shuts off when your target temperature is reached. That saves fuel and keeps your workspace comfortable.
At $389.99, it costs more than most home heaters. For 215,000 BTU of industrial power, the price is competitive. Fuel at 1.5 gallons per hour adds to your ongoing costs.
