is says Garage. Can it be inside the home?

It says garage, but I am using it in my living/dining room. It works great, but it needs a diverter of some kind to 0keep the heat off of the wall behind it - my husband took a piece of flashing, curved it slightly & placed it above/behind the heater - works well.

Not recommended as you would be able to smell fumes. Garage works great as it is somewhat vented

On the back of the box it says that it is approved for manufactured (mobile) home installation. Check local codes. I live in a framed house. In previous reviews that I read other people had installed them in their homes as well. I'm pleased with it & wish I had installed one sooner.

Yes it can. I have it mounted on the wall in my basement. Keep in mind that burning propane or natural gas produces water vapor, so it increases humidity in the room. I keep the heater on low for the room to be comfortable but not hot, and the moisture is not a problem.

yes, but follow the directions. It is listed in the directions on the distances needed for clearances, also air inlet information.

It can be used in the home but will still only cool to the manufacturer's noted square footage. I do use mine in the garage where an A/C would not make sense because of the cost and cooling loss. I would only use it in the house for brief periods as it does add moisture into the air (making it more humid inside), would only drop the inside temp a little as compared to outside temps, and it is a bit loud for indoors. No complaints on its function in my garage where it has kept it very cool for the price. Hope that helps.

Yes... I bought it for my grandkids, and it's been set up in the garage several times during colder weather. Basement? Well - if the ceiling is high enough, it should work fine, too.

Maybe in a garage but can not be exposed to moisture. Not 100% solid wood, top piece is laminate on particle board.

Most established garages should be able to. I had the Subaru dealer and private shop do it so far.

As long as it is anchored to ceiling beams, you shouldn't have any problem using it in any room. My garage is sheet rocked, so it's just like any other room in the house. Hope that's helpful.

I believe it is safe enough to install inside a home but I think it would be too noisy. Even though it is very quiet running in a garage it wouldn't be quiet enough in a home.

Nope. But you can put in in the garage for the winter, or bring it inside. Also, I'd recommend buying from a plant store. You really want to see what you're getting!

I installed it in successfully in the wall of my shed because there was no insulation or drywall involved. As others have noted, it is possible, if you buy the mounting kit or are creative and/or skilled enough. To install one in a typical home wall you should look for one specifically engineered for that location. Wall models usually have double flap doors to keep the weather out better and will have a section that extends into the the wall to keep the insulation where it should be.

I can't really say for sure. But the reason they say the garage isn't good is because they do not have heaters in them for sub freezing temps. If your garage is always above 50 degrees I would think any unit would be fine.

Yes. You can not vent inside a structure. If you were mounting outside a garage the go with this unit. INSIDE a garage you NEED and indoor unit that exhausts to the exterior thru a vent. Mounting this unit in your garage is like running you car inside with the door shut - it will kill you from the CO2.

Inside the garage is fine. It just needs to be out of the weather, cannot get wet.

Yes it can be used inside as long as you have the space. Wouldn't put breakable items near it though.

It's garage. I threw it away, It didn't work for me and i don't recommend it.

I don't know the answer to that question, but I have mine in the garage where there wouldm't be a problem.

It can be placed anywhere at all,but if you live in a cold weather climate,you will have to insulate it somehow to keep it from freezing,of course.Maybe even build an insulated box around it.We put ours in the garage.

Yes you can. I currently have it this way in a few different spots in the house.
