Does this need to be vented for indoor use? We are planning on installing one in a small cabin.

I'm installing mine in a vintage camper which has hood above it that vents outside. That said, the source the propane tank should be either outside or in a sealed compartment vented to the outdoors. The only propane connection should be at the stove itself all the other connections (regulator, solenoid, etc) should be made in the enclosure or outside.

No, but you should always have a smoke alarm and a carbon monoxide detector. For your safety in anything that has propane appliances.

Yes it can be installed inside with a vent. But the water and the unit needs to be in a warm area. it will take a long time to let the water run before it get's hot and then in less then 20 mins it turns cold again.

yes, you won't need ducting inside the tent ,but outside where you want to vent the air (and odor) to, you may need ducting. Hope this helps

This heater is ventless. No vent needed. I would get a carbon monoxide detector, even though the heater has an oxygen sensor that will cut off the unit if the oxygen level falls below 19.4%. The heater works well, maintaining a constant temperature. 20,000 BTU is a lot of heat. We use ours as a supplement to our heat pump in very cold weather so it doesn't go into emergency (electric) mode.

This unit needs to go outside. You can get other units that can go inside but they do require additional venting

Yes, it needs to be vented out the window. It comes with an adjustable vent support to set in the window. Otherwise you will be adding hot air from unit to room you are cooling. I am very satisfied with our unit for cooling our second floor bedroom.

All Air Conditioners need to be vented as far as I know. Otherwise hot air will just blow out into the room and negate the cool air flowing out. This one in particular though has a hose out the back to be vented out a window.

Yes it is vented. In the front it there is a mesh window. Even if you put the cover down, there is plenty of air flow.

The unit does not need to be vented, but does draw 12 volts of electricity and it's just generally not wise to have high voltage items near water. That said - let wisdom be thy guide, I like to use mine by my hot tub in the winter and we're just careful to keep it far enough away that it won't tip over into the water.

Yes the unit needs to vent outside. The hose a about 6" diameter flex vent. Unit works great.

I can see how it could be installed in a wall. You would have to leave the majority of the unit outside to allow the fan to vent properly.

I wouldn't recommend using without running the vent.it's really simple if u are handy

It needs to be ventilated. I have used it so far in my tent on propane and on 12 volt in my car while traveling. It does put out some heat as all refrigerators do. If I were to use it in my RV then I would leave some windows open or put it in my tow vehicle with windows open also.

This unit is mounted outside the building so does not require additional venting other than what is right in the unit. There are also some units that are mounted inside the building, and those do require a vent to the outside.

The short answer is no. When the air conditioner is running, it needs to vent freely. This is for use in the winter when the air conditioner is off. Check out the mesh cover which you can use in the summer to keep out debris.

I would NOT use this particular model indoors. It uses propane and needs to be vented.

Yes it needs to be vented outside. Any true air conditioner needs to have a vent outside otherwise you'll never get it to cool the air. It's the same basic physics why a refrigerator does not double as an air conditioner by leaving the door open.
