Do you think one heater will heat up a 30ft. motorhome and is it noisy?

It will take LONGER for the HOLMES heater to heat up a 30ft motorhome. For QUICKER FAN-FORCED radiant heat, the COMFORT ZONE CZ550 radiant heater is a better choice. Click here for more information about the COMFORT ZONE CZ550 radiant heater: Comfort Zone CZ550 Comfort Zone

I wouldn't call it "noise". This heater makes the kind of sound I would expect from a powerful fan pushing air out. I have two of these, exact same model, and highly recommend them for greenhouse or garage use. Why not in a loft? A bit unconventional, but if it's warmth that's your goal, it should work.

I use my heater in my 25'x 45' garage as a back up and to help the furnace and it provides quick heat in the morning, I only use kero you can use diesel but you will probably notice fumes, I can't take the fumes its not as bad as a torpedo heater but I myself wont do it, try it if ok then do it

I would say it is about half as loud as a small torpedo heater. I generally have a safety headset/radio on when I use it. BE CAREFUL how close you get to items that can burn or melt. I had my Loop-Lock pool cove folded up about 5 feet away from some weeds I was "cooking." It wasn't until a month later I discovered I melted four panels! Close to $500.00 to fix!

Honestly I can not say...We bought 2 to heat our 36 foot Recreational Vehicle as We were full timers and heating with the onboard furnace was expensive and unnecessary. Sorry !!!! There are sites that will help you get a ball park average if you'd like that just let me know. jeffandchrissyhoward@gmail.com in subject line write heater-amazon so i know its not spam and i will send you the link(s) to do it

Checking at www.Rheem.com i can only find one "short" tank heater, it is 30 gal electric. Maybe you should consider a tankless heater.

Depends on how well it's insulated. I have 2 in a 400sq. Ft. Cabin that is very well insulated. 2 rooms. At 30 outside they will run you out if you don't turn them down. If you turn one off it will heat both rooms if you open the door between.

Nice safe heater, however not sure it would warm that large of area. I own two.

I have it in an outbuilding with a finished upper level. We are in Michigan, worked perfectly last winter, kept the building (832 sqft down, 512 sqft up) very comfortable. We watch television upstairs directly over the heater, up there noise not an issue. In the open space where heater is, acceptability of noise level and air movement would be subjective (not objectionable to me).

by no means is this a quite fan. they are great but you can hear from one end of 3 bedroom house to the other. not outside,about like having your stove fan on high(like in someone else's answer)is the perfect description. if you dont want it to be heard by visitors ,that will be within one wall seperating ,it may be too loud. but like i said it is worth the price i ha mine 2 years

I love ours we had it at our camp site running our big motorhome with 4 other people and I ran it all night and it didn't bother no one we even had a small bear come and laid by it so I would say it doesn't run loud and it runs a long time when it shuts off by it self make sure you check the oil right away over all me and my husband would recommend it to any one

I have had mine one year and have approx 60 hrs use and like it very much. It is much quieter than most similiary priced units (69)db. One caution DO NOT fill fuel tank to the top,it will expand ,overflow ,flood out and make a hell of a mess and be sure to get electric start,you will be glad you did.Runs A/c and everything in RV at same time. Great for use when staying overnite on Wal-Mart parking lots and saves lots of money on campgrounds! Enjoy!

It is a little loud but not nearly as bad as some other heaters that I had in the past. I have to put the tv up a bit but I have no problem sleeping with it on.

It is a little too powerful for an RV. I'd look at a couple smaller units rather than this one big unit. We use it to heat our 3-car garage. In a small space it would be WAY too hot near the unit.

Just be sure the wiring to the heater meets the required voltage and amp requirements. I install two kick space heaters on a 220 volt service with an inlet thermostat recommended on the Broan website. They heat very well. There are a little noisier than I expected by work very well.

yes. you just want to make sure that the plug is within easy NOT overhead reach. I had to call to electrician in to move the plug that was up by the heater. It is very hot.

Not very noisy at all, you can hear it but it hasn't kept me from studying, watching movies or TV. I would recommend this heater to anyone
