I have 200 space. Totally uninsulated high ceiling no insulation on exposed roof or walls. I have 2 of the heaters 1 at each end of building. Depending on out side temp the heaters keep the bld. above freezing. We have temps in single digits. I have 4 black ones 1 white one. Recommend black, white has burn off smell.heaters work well

BTU's for this item are 5,118; and will cover 5,000 Square Feet. I got this answer from their Customer Service at 1-888 672-5832.

4 inch and larger would work I went with a 6 inch fan. Openings are adjustable to the size you need. 8 inch is probably maximum size it would accommodate without an adapter.

I'd say that is probably pushing it on size. However, using two of these heaters there might work. You might want to try an infrared heater instead. It heats the air pretty effectively and I use one in my 12x15 bedroom as the only heat source here in the mountains.

Just measure your space, and ask the expert at the big box store to select. My concern on the 4 gal unitis, "is this enough hot water for you".

59* is the lowest and 88* is the highest. If the room you want to heat is bigger than a 10' X 10' the heater will have to run all the time to keep it warm. It is to small for regular rooms. I would look for one that is bigger.

Easy 7-800 sq. ft. on low to mid range- 900-1,000 on max high limits. I truly believe they rate the sq. footage to be perfectly safe on the part of the manufacturer. I own several and several different brands and they all exceed! But remember, Propane burns hotter than Natural which is also probably configured for the rating per/ sq. ft. (Duel Fuel) good heaters- good luck!

I have one in the bedroom and it can heat more than that. The room is probably 12'x12'.

I'm not well-versed on BTU's and watts comparison. I can, however, support the answer by Randolph Eck. I agree that this heater does not adequately or quickly heat 800 sq ft. It would be an okay heater for a small bedroom or bathroom, if you don't mind the beeping when you push the buttons. But, I would suggest buying a smaller space heater in the $30 to $60 range instead of this one, if price is a factor.

900 square feet and with a blower it would heat a larger space. Really do like it.

I have a 1875 sq ft home and two ocupants. Works great. Make sure the gas pipe size is 1" from the meter to the split/T and 3/4" (Not too long) from there to the unit and 4" exhaust pipe. Do not reduce the sizes. Good luck.

it might take alittle bit to heat the whole room since it's rated for 1800 sq. ft. but it should get you there.

We have a couple of differant sizes. We have a 8 x 10.5 for a Taper Patio Heater.

I use this to heat 350 square feet in Durham, NC. The winters are mild and the unit is most always on the low setting. I would buy the next size up and you can keep it on low instead of using this one with little to no spare capacity. I hope this helps.

Ask you plumber. But I used the small one. EX08CP. Works fine and great as supplemental heat in a boot room/entrance area for me.

U just have to use low flow and keep on heat. The lower the flow the hotter u get. U should not have to go so slow for 80deg. I get up to 125-130

Thank you all for taking the time to help me out with this. i have decided to just belly up the extra money and but an actual burner. 110000 BTU and a wide base should suit me well. thanks again for all of your advice.
