Questions & Answers
The question is, are these heaters electric or battery-powered?
Thank you for your inquiry. This heater requires wall power. Have a great day!
Why doesn’t my heater put out really warm air. It comes on but with it turned up full blast it barely puts out warm air? It never glows red like other heaters do
Thank you for your inquiry. It sounds like the excess flow device on that heater may be triggered. Please reach out to the manufacturer directly at 1-855-663-0660 so we can help get that heater running normally. Have a great day!
Will the heater reach 140° continuous in a close space to kill termites
Thanks for the question. While the 170,000 BTU Forced Air Propane Heater is powerful and can raise temperatures quickly in enclosed areas, it’s not designed or rated for pest control applications, including achieving and maintaining the 140°F continuous temperatures typically required for termite extermination. Using it for that purpose raises safety risks like overheating, improper ventilation, or even fire. We strongly recommend using equipment that’s specifically designed for thermal pest treatment.
can this heater be converted to natural gas?
Drill the orifice
Thank you for your inquiry. No, this heater cannot be converted. Have a great day!
Can this be used to kill termites in a 250 square feet room?
Thank you for your inquiry! This heater will not be able to heat the room to the temperature needed to kill termites. Hope this helps!
What is the max temp that this unit can obtain and maintain in a 24x20 insulated shop building?
Thank you for your inquiry! The temperature of the unit's high limit switch will shut the heater off once it reaches 240 degrees. Because of this, the achieved room temperature may vary. Hope this helps!
How many watts of electricity does it take to run the heater?
Hello! This heater will require a minimum of 240 Watts to run. Have a great day!
Can I use Forklift Propane Tanks on this unit
I'm using a 33 lb forklift LP tank on mine. Works great. Just be sure to use the vapor only port/valve. The fitting and valve for the forklift supplies liquid LP. Forklifts have vaporizers to convert the liquid to a gas as well as the proper regulator.
Hi Vito. According to DeWalt, the minimum recommended LP tank size is 40 pounds. This heater uses a standard POL left hand thread coupling. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Rick_HD_OC
