The Mr. Heater 170,000 BTU forced air propane heater is a job-site torpedo heater that runs on a 20 lb propane tank or larger and plugs into a standard 110V outlet. It uses quiet burner technology and a thermostat to hold a set temperature, and it ships with a 10 ft hose and regulator. Factory high-limit switches and thermoelectric safety valves shut it down if the flame goes out or it overheats. It suits contractors, garage and shop owners, and anyone heating a large open space; against smaller 30,000 to 60,000 BTU torpedo heaters it moves far more air and heat, but it needs more propane and a bigger tank, and it is loud and bulky compared with radiant or ceramic shop heaters.
