Our take on the Mr. Heater Buddy 9000 Btu/h 225 sq ft Radiant Propane Portable Heater

The Mr. Heater Buddy is a portable radiant propane heater that runs on a 1 lb. cylinder and puts out 4,000 to 9,000 BTU, enough for spaces up to 225 sq ft. It lights with a push-and-turn knob and a Piezo spark, has Hi-Low settings, and shuts off on tip-over or low oxygen. Its fold-down handle and swivel regulator make it easy to carry and to hook to a remote tank with a hose and filter. It is built for outdoor and job-site use, not indoor rooms, and unlike thermostat-controlled cabinet heaters it has no automatic temperature regulation.

About the Mr. Heater Buddy 9000 Btu/h 225 sq ft Radiant Propane Portable Heater

The Mr. Heater Buddy is a portable radiant propane heater with a heat output of 4,000 to 9,000 BTU. It heats spaces up to 225 sq. ft. and is designed for outdoor use. It connects directly to a 1 lb. propane cylinder.

The heater has a fold-down handle and a compact footprint. A swivel regulator lets you switch from a disposable cylinder to a remote gas supply. That switch requires a separately purchased hose and filter.

To light it, turn the knob to pilot and push. The built-in Piezo sparking mechanism does the rest. An Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) and an accidental tip-over safety shut-off are included for safety.

Questions and answers

Can I use the Buddy indoors?
Mr. Heater rates this heater for outdoor use. The oxygen depletion sensor is a safety backstop, not a license to run it in enclosed living spaces.
How long does a 1 lb. cylinder last?
Expect only a few hours on high and longer on low. For extended use, connect a larger tank with the proper hose and filter through the swivel regulator.
Does it have a thermostat?
No. You choose Hi or Low with the control knob, and the heater runs at that output until you turn it off.
What size space will it heat?
Mr. Heater rates it for up to 225 sq ft. Real-world results depend on insulation, outdoor temperature and how open the space is.
Can I connect it to a 20 lb. tank?
Yes, with a hose and filter sold separately. The swivel regulator is designed to switch from a disposable cylinder to a remote supply.
What safety features does it have?
An Oxygen Depletion Sensor shuts the unit off if oxygen drops, and an accidental tip-over switch cuts the gas if it is knocked over.
