looking for something that isn’t going to smoke me out, or give me a headache. Was told by my father to look into the blue flame type of heaters, ventless is key because I don’t have the option to start cutting holes into walls (I rent a duplex) so I’d to know if anyone has anything I could use

thanks in advance

yea I had one of those before, not to mention that’s about 10 times the fuckin heat I need lol I’m only heating a small 2 car garage. I’ve found a few blue flame ventless propane heaters on CL, anyone have any good luck with them?

Jason look into a Propane convection heater.

There like 80-100$

I have one, works awesome no need to vent, you can smell the propane but i worked for hours in my closed garage without issue…

Works extremely well i belive mine is around 80kbtu and its the size of a small garbage can.

no they don’t, but you may need to open the door every few hours, depending on your tolerance to the fumes. I never had a problem and usually had it blowing directly on my face
