Can i use this in my enclosed patio? Or will the fumes burn the siding at the ceiling?

I wouldn't it is meant for outside. I would use a electric hanging patio heater that is what I have and like very much has two heat settings and up and out of the way and looks good. Harold

It depends upon the distance from the top of the heater to the ceiling. If this is on the floor and you have a standard ceiling - it should be ok. If you set it on a table you may have a problem. The bigger problem is that it is fire. Fire takes the oxygen out of the air and puts carbon monoxide in the air. Carbon monoxide will kill you. So if the patio is enclosed - OPEN THE WINDOWS.

I have not had any problems using the stove outside. I would not use the yellow HEET indoors. To be on the safe side. I think it could be toxic to breathe the fumes so I would want a lot of ventilation.

I was going to return mine, but decided to use it outside on my patio. I wouldn't use it indoors, I had it outside for a week to air it out and it still stunk, so I just kept it outside.

MLH, as I read on the instructions the device should only be used outdoors. It does have a gaseous odor so we don't think it would be wise for use indoors. The lantern would probably be effective in the garage if it was properly well ventilated but I would have to refer you back the instructions which also doesn't recommend indoor use. The lanterns seem to work better than the portable and they don't attract mosquitoes but repel them. We use the lanterns on our back deck in the summer and they seem to work well but you have to activate them about 15 mins before you plan on enjoying the outdoors. Hope this helps. Jan

I guess I wouldn't be opposed to trying it, away from the house first of all. It is galvanized so it'll probably discolored rather quickly. As long as I don't load it up to where it makes a super hot fire. Me, I would try it because I don't see where it would hurt anything as long as you're safe.

I use mine on a covered porch and haven't had any problems... but there is good air flow across the smoker. If there isn't good ventilation... I would expect problems. This is a smoker, it puts out a lot of smoke. Besides thick smoke being unpleasant to be in... when hot enough... and thick enough... smoke can become flammable. If it were me... I would still own one... I'd just figure out a way to vent the smoke.

The Manufacturer says for out door use only. I have used other units like this in doors and will use this one. You must keep the space where it is well ventilated to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. And like any space heater keep all flammable items away from it.

I used mine on the patio with temps in the high 80's...but only for a day. Personally I wouldn't keep it out very long in either extreme.

I personally have no tused it on siding, but I don't believe it should be a problem. Try it on a small area out plain sight for a test.

I don't know how combustible the fumes are but since you're doing a basement floor I'm guessing ventilation won't be a good as a garage so I'd contact the manufacturer. I will say that my husband turned the pilot light for the water heater off over night when he applied the product. The next morning he lit the pilot with no issues. We left the man door open all night and the overhead door open 1" to help it dry and vent. I just love the look.

Yes, as long as you keep an eye on it like any flame source. I would keep the garage door open though. I have used mine on my covered deck.

Btw....wonderful tool be ready to get wet!! Don't spray to close to building or home unless you have brick walls. Aluminum siding will fly off if you spray too close. If spraying gutters I suggest to be prepared to spray entire home. It's A Mess especially if they're really dirty. Alert your neighbors before hand , because they will be affected as well. Oh!!!! Get ready to spray their home too...it's a mess!!

1. You could get carbon monoxide poisoning. 2. If there is anything above it that can burn, it might (ceiling, rafters, etc.?). If you spend a lot of time in your garage in the winter, consider installing a used Natural Gas or L.P. furnace. People frequently remove perfectly good furnaces from their houses, simply because they want to upgrade to a higher efficiency unit. I got mine for free, cost me around $300 for everything else needed to install myself.

This is a. Judgement call. No fire should be left unatended. It would depend on the size of the balcony if it is small I would say no to be safe.

I personally, would not use a firepit underneath a covered patio. The fire, should be able to escape from the pit into the open air. I'm sure it's been done before, I just don't think it's safe. Good luck.

Honestly? I wouldn't use it near a flame in the way you describe. It's galvanized, which when heated, gives off seriously DEADLY fumes. Use at your own risk, of course....but it's also not a heavy gauge and probably wouldn't last as long as you need. I'd check into non-galvanized, heavy-gauge mesh with a bit larger openings. I hope I don't sound too preachy! I've had a run-in with heating galvanized metal and it wasn't fun.

Not recommended as you would be able to smell fumes. Garage works great as it is somewhat vented
