[A/S] Buddy Heater

["Richard Dorsten" <richarddorsten@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Jim, I have used the Buddy Heater last winter and it works 
great. I bought a refill fitting, from Harbour Freight,and with this 
you can refill the 1 lb bottles from a 20 lb bottle. A tip a friend 
and neighbor of mine, who happens to be 89 years old and has owned 
an Airstream since 1969, said to make any catalytic heater to work 
efficient,is to place it in the front by the door, a built in heater 
is usually located there anyway, then crack a window open up front 
and crack open a vent in the back. With the vent open in the back, 
it will draw the heat from the front of the trailer to the rear. He 
said he very seldom ever used his furnace. I tried it and it works. 
They do make a hose to run this off of a 20 lb or bigger bottle and 
like said in an earlier post , this would be better. They also make 
one now that is bigger and takes 2 1lb bottles to run. Check Lowe's 
out , they have both of them . At least they do here in Ohio. I hope 
this helps.  Richard in Southwest Ohio
