They work great when they work. Mine is a different company but I think the same principle. They are set up the same as a furnace with spray nozzle and electrodes. I will say this... they are much quieter than a torpedo heater. And put out a radiant heat but always needs work and I even had to take it to a local shop and when it came back it was no different. Tried to send it back but waited too long. Just my opinion.

My little diesel heater typically run 2,000 hours before they need cleaning, and the gaskets are cheap.
 
Here is mine. Maybe different company.

I didn't get the cars out today. I did get to the bank and grocery stores. I am setting at our other house. I have the oil draining from the snow blower. The paddles came in but the scraper came out of the shipping bag somewhere along the way. I contacted the seller to let him know. I took base trim, outlet covers, curtain rods, and a wall shelf out of the bathroom. The neighbor here is a drywall finisher and he is going to remove the sand texture on the bathroom walls and skim coat it. Then we can get the floor covered and except for paint and trim, we will be done.
 

Been dry here for about 3 hours. Good ole Pt Concepcion is doin' it's thing and funneling that Atmospheric River right through the LA Basin :rolleyes: :lol: LA needs a good washin'.

Yeah I just got back from the gym now. There's some pretty big boys in there from Vietnam. I was a little surprised to see that. But it's all good. Got in and out of there early. Going to breakfast with Lynda and then we were going to the beach town of Vung Tau...

Late to the party, Radiant? Fuel oil, diesel fuel, kerosene?

Wow lets see....Radiant. Radiant heat kind of spreads the heat out and heats everything as opposed to a blast forward that heats just in front and then the heat spreads around. Perhaps a poor explanation but I don't know how else to do it

Mine is Diesel/fuel oil/Kerosene. I have moved to Kerosene because it is cleaner but I don't use this heater anymore. I went back to a Torpedo heater. My goal is to build a nice garage with insulation and go with a mobile home furnace. I have one I use in my semi garage and I like it. If I could get the money together I would go mini split.
 
In the car now on our way to Vung Tau. Be there for a couple of days. Nice little Beach town. Used to be an R&R center for the military back in the day. Birthday party for one of Lynda's friends
