Just remember that about 4 gallons of moisture are put into the air for every 20 pounds of propane combusted indoors. So, if you have a tight home, make sure you get plenty of ventilation to remove this moisture or windows may buildup a significant frost layer and there is the potential for mold and mildew in the walls. Thank you for that info. Wouldn’t be an issue with my current house but next one hopefully will be different. I will make a note of that.

Speak for yourself! I have not caught a whiff of mildew in nearly 40 years! Right this moment, humidity is very high at 42%, but it has been cloudy all day. I can still recall back in Illinois when I took a trip and packed my toothbrush in it's plastic tube, when I took the lid off of the tube, THAT is when I smelled mildew. I am not dumb enough to think that our entire nation could prosper with the minimal rainfall and humidity we have here, but I am mighty grateful that the high desert exists for guys and gals like us, who enjoy better health in warm, dry areas.....Joe

Like Mr Heater or similar. Want something I could hook up to 20# tank, don’t want to mess with little tanks. Need to buy one or two before we move and don’t know what to look for. I haven't looked through the entire thread so forgive me if this is old information. Ventless Propane

Thanks, Wyatt. We did buy a couple of Mr. Heaters for now but will be doing more research as to what will best suit our needs for emergency use. DD and I just bought an older (mid 70s) house in Idaho which currently has radiant ceiling heat and 2 gas fireplaces. We’ll definitely need backup heat, and will likely be putting in a different heat system entirely. (Not wood, she won’t use it and I’m not able to.)
