Kerosene Portable Heaters

Kerosene portable heaters have become popular heating units of a home because it's cheaper than electricity in some parts of the country.  However, don't ever use kerosene heaters as a main heat source.

As you know kerosene is a gas and when gas burns it needs oxygen.  As your karosene heater burns the oxygen is then replaced by many different gases including kerosene carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide just to name a few. What that really means is you need to be careful and provide proper ventilation.  It's wise to open a nearby window or door to properly ventilate your room.

Now that we have your attention let me first explain that my inlaws use a kerosene convection heater every time the power is out in their area.  They follow the kerosene heater safety rules like keeping it out of the main traffic flow, keep it at least 3 ft away from walls or any combustible, and they crack the window open.

 We've used our kerosene portable heater downstairs in the winter when we want to work down there. The only thing we are very careful of is adding the proper kerosene heater fuel.  Kerosene comes in two types:

1-K kerosene fuel and 2-K kerosene fuel.  

The difference is in the amount of sulfur it contains.  The 1-K has less and that is the recommended fuel for our kerosene radiant heater.  We never use any other type of fuel in this unit and we've never had problems.  Sure the kerosene heater wick will go out on us, but that's an easy fix, especially for the heat it can produce.

Below is a list of "some" of the kerosene portable heaters you can find.  The ones we found have the higher ratings from customers who have purchased this portable ceramic heaters.
