Kero World KW-24G Indoor Kerosene Heater, Large, White
Description
Kero World is the brand trusted by millions since 1982.
Quality materials and construction, along with a 2-year warranty, makes this
heater brand a standout. The KW-24G convection style heater is a popular
choice. It projects 23,800 BTU’s of heat in a 360 degree radius to heat a
large area. Also great for winter power outages and emergency situations as it
provides both heat and light. The Kero World portable indoor
kerosene heater is great for heating small to medium indoor spaces (up to 900
square feet). Matchless ignition makes this a convenient source of instant
heat–without having to plug it in, either. The built-in 1.9-gallon tank gives
you up to 12 hours of heat. The manufacturer recommends using only clean
kerosene. Two-year warranty.–Josh DettweilerWhat’s in the Box Heater, C
batteries (2) Five Tips for Buying a Heater Choosing a space heater is a
matter of sifting through a bewildering array of types, power ratings, and
fuel sources. Let’s break it down a little to make the process easier.What are
the different types of space heaters? Radiant heaters emit infrared radiation
that directly warms the objects in front of the heaters (rather than the
surrounding air). If you only need heat by a desk or in a small section of a
room, a radiant heater is quiet and will use very little power.Forced-air
heaters use a fan to blow air that has been warmed by metal or ceramic heating
elements. A forced-air heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small-
to medium-sized room, but can be noisy.Convection heaters draw cold air from
the floor; the air is warmed by heating coils and emitted from the top of the
heater. A convection heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small- to
medium-sized room, but also can be noisy.Radiators work by heating oil
enclosed in a reservoir, gradually heating the surrounding air. If heating
speed isn’t an issue, you might want to opt for a radiator. These are
extremely quiet and effective–perfect for bedrooms.Should I buy an electric
or a combustion model? If you want a heater that will be available in
emergencies, or that can heat areas larger than a single room, choose a
“combustion” model–one that is powered by a gas or fuel like propane,
kerosene, natural gas, or diesel. Which fuel type you choose depends largely
on convenience and local availability. For example, diesel would be
appropriate for a heater you take with you on long car trips.How powerful a
heater do I need? Heaters are rated by BTU, which stands for British Thermal
Unit (the amount of heat needed to heat one pound of water by 1 degree F). To
find out how many BTU you need: Calculate the volume of the space to be heated
by multiplying square footage by height. Multiply that number by 4 if your
insulation is poor, 3 if it’s average, or 2 if it’s good.The resulting number
is a ballpark figure for how many BTU you’ll need.Do space heaters cost a lot
to operate? As a general rule, electric space heaters are more expensive to
use than combustion models. To ensure energy efficiency, a thermostat is a
must-have feature for any heater. For radiant heaters, models with a 360
degree heating surface can heat larger spaces. If you need a forced-air
heater, models with ceramic elements tend to be more efficient.Are space
heaters a fire hazard? Space heaters are implicated in about 25,000
residential fires every year. To ensure proper safety, always follow the
manufacturer’s usage instructions and fill out the warranty card to receive
informational updates from the manufacturer. Also, look for extra safety
features such as an automatic shutoff switch that can shut down the unit if,
for example, it gets upended. In addition, choose a model where the heating
element is adequately enclosed within the unit.
