Can this heater go indoors or is it an outdoor unit?

It can be installed indoors, and it will require proper venting to the exterior.

I use mine outdoors. That requires no venting. You can use it indoors, however, you must duct away the gas exhaust which is hot and contains whatever chemicals result from the combustion = probably CO2. So-you need some sort of insulated flue system like you would with a gas stove. You can download the owner's manual which describes how to do an indoor installation. Outdoors is so much less hassle.

You would need to run a exhaust duct think it is four inch. It doesn't need to be insulated.

I have mine mounted above the door in back room of my cabin. Can be mounted indoors but must be vented out. (chimney). Cabin is solar powered and have shower in back room with rv pump to heater for hot water for shower and sink. Works great but doesnt seem to get as hot as they lead you to believe. Shower temp seems to be perfect temp with just the hot water only. Paul

I use it outside. I think it can be vented to use indoors, but not sure. I use it for a portable shower. Everything is mounted on a hand cart and as long as the hose reaches you have hot water.

I have this unit indoors; installed 3 years ago, never a problem and works great. I wanted to install a small one outdoors for my outdoor shower and called manufacturer. They said it definitely cannot be installed outdoors because it would freeze and even if you live south of the freeze zone it's not recommended because the components are compromised and warranty is void.

I'm assuming it is a large open space and usually not well insulated. The heater is thermostatically controlled and would run constantly and burn itself out.

the unit has a fan, it is forced air. The very best electric space heater I have found.

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

As I understand it, this is an indoor only unit. The cord can outside, but not the unit.

Yes it is, its an indoor/outdoor heater. It also has a low oxygen sensor. My advice ALWAYS ALWAYS use a carbon-monoxide detector in a room that you plan to use ANY type of gas/liquid fuel heaters, just to be safe. This heater I definitely recommend for ease of use and its built well.

I haven't used it indoors. We have it on an outdoor covered deck and it heats athe seating area.

Yes, if the specific unit is made to be mounted outdoors. They make both indoor and outdoor. The outdoor type are typical in my my area (Sierra Mountain) when people do not have access to NG. They mount between the studs and look like an electric panel on the outside that faces the elements....

Hi, from what I've learned, the attic would be considered as indoors, and this unit can do both. However, the challenge will occur with the installationof the correctly sized gas pipes that will be connected, to the unit in the attic. It can get costly! Good Luck!!

I would say this is made for indoor use as it is wall mounted and not particularly weatherproof. Once installed, you would not want to move it. I ordered it for a conference room. Hope that helps!

I use this with an inside gas heater, and an outside Heatp/AC unit. Automatically switches between hot and cold, to maintain your settings. I believe there is a newer model. Basically the same, but has different color choices on the display. I am happy with the device!

It stays inside the unit during use. I LOVE this heater. It works great. I use it in my garage during football season and it kees the garage nice and toasty. My brother has one as well and he uses it on his patio while entertaining. It is a great investment.

I do not reccommend running this unit indoors for any reason. Even running on propane. The propane tank needs to be outside. If anything bad (i.e. explosions, fire, carbon monoxide or dioxide poisoning, or death) happens, your insurance company and lawyers will be looking at you and your judgement. This unit is designed to run outside (see your owner's manual).

Yes, the unit is cool to touch. It is not like a regular heater. Where the heat comes directly from the unit is not that hot as to burn you like a conventional heater.

This model is designed to be mounted indoors, that can be a home, shed or garage as long as it is not outside. Do pay attention to the clearances required for the unit to have enough fresh air to operate.

It's made for outdoor use so indoors would be just fine. It's LED so it doesn't generate much heat so it could be used any ware.
