It is worth the price

Have owned this heater for a little over a year. Use it to heat an non-insulated 16 x 20 shop building. Has worked great so far and only have to run it about 15 minutes before it gets a little too warm inside. Shut it off and fire it back up again in 30 minutes or so when the temp drops. Biggest issue I had was using regular Diesel fuel from the pump (due to lower cost) that caused headaches after use. Switched recently to K-1 kerosene and the difference in both fumes and smell and after affects is noticeable. In my area, K-1 costs nearly twice as much per gallon, but is worth it to me since I only use it a couple times per week. It’s a great little heater no matter which fuel you use.

heat very well but it smell like sh…!!! It’s really for heating a space rapidely with the person outside even if you open a window….Dont understand why people say the leave the garage door slitghtly opened…first you are heating the outside, second everything that crawl can get in…I use it to de-ice my atv when it’s packed of ice and snow and it works very well…

Have had this unit for a couple years, worked right out of the box.. Use regular diesel and it takes the chill off my 24 x 46 garage with 12 foot celling within half hour.. This unit has raised the Temperature to about 50 degrees when the air temperature is 20 degrees.. I would buy another one if this one should die..

Bought this heater last winter for use in a outdoor carwash situation where employees are standing outside in the cold (30-40F). This unit made the slight cold snaps we get in New Orleans more bearable. It held up to constant use 8+ hours a day on cold days with no sign of wear after being used for four months. I’d definitely buy it again if I needed to, but it’s still in great condition, looks almost brand new, and I expect it will last many winters here.

This unit works very well. I have a 2 car garage in which I created our workout space. The heater definitely warms the area up quickly in about 15mins. Ofcourse there is not much you can do about the smell, burning kerosene just has a bad odor. The tank is very big and with using it sparingly to heat the area the fuel has lasted several weeks now. Very pleased with this purchase.

Nice heater, but mine would not run for more than 20 seconds before shutting off. I had to use an air pressure gauge to adjust the air pressure to the specified 3.8psi. So far, so good. I’m disappointed it needed work new out of the box. READ THE MANUAL, DON’T THROW IT AWAY!

We got this heater to knock the chill off of our garage/gym. It took a few tries to get the fuel pressure set, and it worked great for a few days. It suddenly stopped working and I walked through all of the troubleshooting suggestions in the manual.
The kicker…THIS ITEM IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR RETURNS!
I’ve tried calling Dura Heat directly with no luck.
I’m suggest you try to buy a heater locally so that issues can be more easily resolved.

This was purchased for a job in a house which had no heat. I installed plaster board (blue board) and skim coated them with veneer plaster, which is the preferred method of Sheetrock here in New England. Used this machine for five straight weeks without any problems. The house would get down close to freezing at night, so would fire this up first thing in the morning for fifteen minutes or so. It does not have a thermostat, so needs to be shut off when the room reaches desired temperature. For a small unit, it delivers a good amount of heat. Excellent buy for the money. Highly recommended.
