Overview
DEWALT builds this portable heater around a forced air burner that runs on propane through a hose and regulator. The description credits Quiet Burner Technology for lower noise, and it calls the design corded or cordless.
Large open work areas are the reason to look at it, because a forced air burner moves a lot of heated air across a barn, garage or workshop. The limitation is the fuel and the setting: it burns propane and is listed for outdoor usage.
Who it's for
Job sites, patios and farm buildings are the typical setting, where a big open area needs moving heat. Households looking for a quiet indoor room heater should look at a different type.
Pros and cons
- Forced air output for large open areas
- Three speeds with adjustable temperature
- Low-oxygen shutoff and overheat protection
- Hose and regulator included
- Outdoor rating, not meant for indoor rooms
- Propane tank not listed as included
- Model number varies between listing fields
Performance notes
Forced air heaters push warmed air with a fan, so the result depends on how open and how enclosed the area is. A barn or garage with the doors shut holds warmth far better than an open patio. The speed settings and adjustable temperature let the output be dialed back once the space is warm.
