Questions and answers

Is 18,000 BTU enough to heat a garage?
It can take the chill off a one- or two-car garage, but radiant heat warms people and objects more than the air. For a 450 sq ft space in real cold, expect it to supplement rather than fully heat.
Can I use it indoors?
The listing says indoor and outdoor use in properly ventilated areas, and it has an oxygen depletion sensor. The listing also says it is not NRTL certified, so check local codes and never use it in a sealed room or while sleeping.
How long does a tank last?
The description says up to 9 hours on two 16-oz camping cylinders at lower output. At full 18,000 BTU, expect far less, roughly a few hours per pair.
Does it need electricity or a battery?
No. The piezo igniter is push-button and needs no power, so it works during outages.
What's in the box?
The heater only. Propane cylinders are sold separately, so buy two 16-oz tanks before first use.
When is it cheapest?
Portable propane heaters tend to drop in price in late winter and spring and rise in fall. Check the price history here and buy when it sits near its low.
What do buyers say about the Comfort Gear 18,000-BTU Indoor/Outdoor Portable Personal Propane Heater, PPH18?
