Why are there so many differing spec on one item. Top says 6000 BTUs then , 5100 just in the full description. Top says up to 1000 sqft and 1500 below

Look elsewhere. The fan has a hard time keeping 147sq ft room warm. It constantly running and never hits the temperature.

I agree that the specs are confusing. In purchasing mine I went with the advice of several friends that owned similar heaters. they told me that theirs were heating approx. 2/3 of the sq. footage stated in the ads. I found this to be quite accurate. Other than that I am very pleased with my heater. Hope this helps!

Thank you all for taking the time to help me out with this. i have decided to just belly up the extra money and but an actual burner. 110000 BTU and a wide base should suit me well. thanks again for all of your advice.

This model dimplex at 2000 watts will give you 6824 btus. You ca. Heat a small bedroom 60sqft with 8ft ceilings with no problem. The insulation and the windows will effect this greatly if you have drafts.

About 1700 BTU. It must be hardwired to a 240volt supply. Hope this helps you. King used to make a portable 120volt heater. You might try their website King-electric.com for more info

Typically the BTU's are higher for a commercial heater. Potentially a few features are added to commercial heaters such as Better or larger base for stability and wheels for easier movement.

OK. 9000 BTU is available only for 120 Volt power. 12000 BTU is available for both 120 ad 230 volts. All of these are very similar in size and structure. So the price differences between them are minimal. And they do not use plugs to receive power. They must be hard wired to your electrical panel (permanent installation). Hope now you are clear.

I have a 500 sq ft room with a 12000 btu unit and it does great heating and cooling. Maybe a 10000 btu unit would be enough for you.

8000 BTUs. Very adequate for a living room or small cabin. Highly efficient

I don't think that BTU rating is an accurate measurement for regulators such as this. The BTUs have a lot to do with the burners on the business end. That said, I can tell you that I put this one on a Camp Chef stove which has three 30,000 BTU burners. It works great. Hope this helps.

I bought a 6 pot/pan group for my wife. She cooks on a Kitchen Aid gas stove. I think the middle large burner is 15,000 btu. She loves these pots and pans, and has had no problems at any heat level, and no complaints. I hope that helps you.

The manual states "at 1500 watts, your heater will use approximately 5100 BTU." I wish I could be more helpful. I bought my heater at the END of last winter and have not yet used it, but hope to beat the high costs of electric heat this coming winter.

The biggest differenct I see in the specs is the AMP rating. TH106/6 looks like the higher amp and you would select wivh unit by the draw. I use the TH106/U for two 8ft pcs of electric baseboard. Make sure the baseboard is approved for variable watt thermostats.

4600 BTU 250 sqft heating area, I'm assuming this is with everything set a maximum

Usually consider 30 BTUs per square foot. But this is a general rule of thumb and many other things can effect the heat load.

Don't know btu's and not familiar with the unit referred to, but it is a good burner.

High/1500, Low/750. BTU: High/1500, Low/2561I found these specs by googling the writing on the shipping box (luckily/lazily the heater that I ordered is still sitting inside of the box in by utility room).
