What is the BTU output? I can't find the BTU output for the various Vornado heaters, and I'd like that info to determine which model can heat more space.

We did not keep the heater; we wanted it for an unheated space and decided it was not going to work there

It doesn't say anywhere on ours, but I googled it and came up with 5118 BTU on high

I dont know the numbers, but mine heats a 600 sq foot basement very well. It is awesome. Thermostat works great.

High/1500, Low/750. BTU: High/1500, Low/2561 I 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).

This space heater has 1500 watts. I looked up the conversion on the internet for you and it converts to 5118 btu's.

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.

Watts are how much power it uses. BTUs are how much heat it puts out. Not the same thing. I'd also like to know but assume it's not great since it's not mentioned. Quality similar models, at only slightly higher cost, can put out 5200 BTUs.

"&gt;&gt; ATTENTION!!! 3" or 4" PVC venting can only be used on condensing heaters (PVC adapter is built-in). - See more at: http://www.noritz.com/residential-products/nrc111dv/#sthash.QEx6SGiw.dpuf" http://www.noritz.com/residential-products/nrc111dv/ That's a quote from Noritz. Using common pvc for the vent makes the total cost HUNDREDS of dollars less than having to use stainless steel vent, or the proprietary venting of another brand. FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS! The Laws of Physics don't abate for the 'it ought to' crowd. PVC can ONLY be used on CONDENSING heaters. IT WILL MELT, OR WORSE, IF INSTALLED ON NON-CONDENSING HEATERS! Follow the instructions for the specific model you buy, no matter which one you choose.

i don't know the BTU out put but when i hook it up to a small propane tank it puts out a five inch flame. hope that helps. I also hooked it up with the holes facing down to prevent water from sitting in the ring.

I have several different sizes. The 30k btu has thermostat. It works very well and rarely heats up all panels. I usually have it on 1 or 2 setting.The 10k but has low or high settings.

Honestly, I do not have the facilities to measure the actual heat energy output of this heater. However, the manufacturer literature suggests that the maximum output is approximately 60,000 BTU per hour, and the minimum is approximately 30,000 BTU per hour. I have used this heater enough to verify that the heat energy output can be dialed up/dialed down very easily.

I wish I knew, I don't know. Check the BTUs but the one I bought works great. Nice and warm in the in between seasons. For everyday use the home version is fine. Possibly the grade of metal is better?

It's just ok. I haven't figured out if it uses less energy (haven't done the math on my electric bills). I used to have a cheapie Dura Flame fan heater and it was way better at heating my bedroom. I would leave it on & close the door & the room would get toasty. Same thing at my office with a small Holmes heater. For the price, I'm not sure if the Vornado is all that better even though it has such a high end reputation...

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 can't make that comparison, but compared to a much less expensive Commercial Cool Unit from BJs, which was much lower BTU (10000, I think), it doesn't compare. I was extremely disappointed in this unit.

it all matters , have god windows? , insulation? Iam not impressed with these heaters at all ,A vornado puts out more heat , but they are all like running a hairdryer constantly , they use energy big time ! my suggestion , try to find another way to heat your house , but would guess 300 to 400 square foot if all above is good !

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.

IF you find the spec sheet it will tell you the maximum BTU per appliance and the maximum total. As I recall, the max appliance is 90,000 BTU and the total was 200,000 BTU. I don't know why the single appliance limit was so much less than the total. Doesn't make sense. You can download the spec sheet (I didn't save the link).
