LP Gas Space Heaters
Empire space heaters are high quality heaters with a 10 year warranty on their combustion chambers. They require no electricity. The thermostats are powered by a tiny electrical generating device that gets its energy from the pilot light. This makes them ideal for an alternative energy home. With proper placement in a home you will need no backup furnace, which would require electricity to run blowers or circulating pumps. A 33,000 btu heater will heat about 1000 sq. ft. of well insulated space.
Empire heaters are AGA approved with all the latest safety devices required on gas appliances. All heater models must be shipped by freight (except for the DV-210 and DV-215). This will cost about
$75 from New England down to Virginia. These are in stock. Freight time is only a few days.
Console Heaters
Standard console heaters have an enameled metal front. Cool air enters the bottom vents and heated air comes out the top vents. Thermostatically controlled. The flue vent exits vertically or horizontally from the rear. It is 4" or 5" depending on the model. (Visual flame heaters that have a one piece glass enclosure which allows you to see the flame as it heats are also available. Call for details.)
DIRECT VENT HEATERS
These heaters are easy to install. They are much like the standard console heaters, except they mount on an outside wall where the flue goes out the side of the building behind the heater. The heaters are more expensive, but there is no expense for flue pipe, or any need for a roof exit or chimney. They burn
outside air which is both more efficient and causes less inside draught.
