Can this be used indoors (for example to make a permanent hookup to a space heater)

I wouldn't use this inside. I have one on my gas grill out on the deck, and have a shut off valve at the quick disconnect end. I only turn on the gas when I use the gas grill. I would bet this would be against building codes for inside use. Just a guess. Bottom line, I personally wouldn't feel safe using this inside.

Yes, I've used it with a radiant space heater daily for over seven years. My heater has a high, medium, and low setting; 1200/900/600/ Watts - I only use the low setting 600 W.

This is because many space heaters, including this one, can run up to 1500 Watts. This means that the space heater needs a dedicated circuit all to itself when in use because of this large draw. This means that if you plug this space heater into a wall and then plug in say a vacuum in the same plug or different socket on the same wall, you may very well trip the breaker. Remember, when a breaker is tripped it is a safety function ment to prevent damage to your electrical system. If you find that you are tripping your breakers consistently, you may want to get a schematic of the wiring in your house so you know what plugs are on the same circuit and what ones are separate circuits. This heater will most certainly trip a breaker if you use another device that creates enough draw on the same circuit. However, if you can figure a way to use it on it's own circuit, this heater is very very good. You can always run a medium duty extension cord from another room so that your heater is plugged in away from the room it resides in. Definitely have an electrician check your system and maybe update it a bit.

I have one of these heaters. It should have no problem with a room that size.

I understand that one can get a hose to attach to the heater to allow for venting. If you did that, I believe it would be fully safe; at least I personally would be willing to use it inside if fumes were vented out. Otherwise, I would not use it inside while I was sleeping.

Yes, but you cannot plug both of these into the same circuit. Mostly meaning you cannot use them in the same room. To be quite honest, I wouldn't bother with these. They use a whole lot of power and are no better than ceramic space heaters. We sent ours back.

I have used it in my bot cabin and in tents before. No problem using it short term in a trailer, just crack a window. I wouldnt use it unattended and don't try to substitute it for a heater.

Hi Hessie,Yes, you can use this indoors with caution, of course. However, keep in mind the smoke will be not only from the coals/biomass but from what you are cooking. If you use the propane adapter its less smoke. Make sure you have ample space to place the grill and enough ventilation. I hope this helps. Good luck and enjoy. Aloha, Al

I have not tried it, as the documentation says that it is infrared,,thus can only be used indoors...hope that helps...

I use it only for fans in bathrooms. I have installed 4 of them and they all work great. I dont see why they would not work as well for a ceiling heater. they are just timing and turning off/on the device no matter what wattage the device itself draws. you could check with the manufacturer to be sure. good luck.

No, the lamp isn't useful as a space (room) heater. You don't need to buy the 'lamp' separate. My lamp consumes 250W (line voltage 121VAC at time of measurement).

This heater is designed to be hardwired, you cannot plug this heater in. Out of the box it is shipped to be recessed into a standard 2"X4" wall cavity. I believe there is a accessory piece that you purchase separately to surface mount this heater.

dont know just HOW this could work. Unless you just wanted to know how warm it was in the milkhouse. How could you connect the two? Better ask an electrician before attempting this venture.

Yes, it can be safely used indoors. I use mine on top the kitchen counter during power outages after hurricanes and ice storms.

I own this unit and bought it as it was listed under INDOOR heaters. I can't imagine it being safe to use outdoors as it's a simple electrical socket.

I don't see why not as the fuel can be used indoors. You just need to be able to snuff the flame.

Hi- I've never used a space heater in mine -- but thinking about it, I would use a very small one....
