Is this a wall vented heater or does it need to be vented through a chimney flue?
1 Answer
This is a B-vent appliance, so the chimney for this unit would need to extend past the roof line. Here is a link to direct vent models that would terminate directly through the wall it is mounted on. This is just an example as you would need to get a unit with the proper fuel type and btu you need.

I have a 15-year-old heater. What is the typical life expectancy of a heater? Also, lately, I have been smelling an exhaust smell. Is this possible?

What is the draft diverter?
1 Answer
The draft diverter is the assembly on the back of the heater that guides the flue gases either upwards or out horizontally, depending on your installation and how you have the diverter positioned (it is adjustable to either vertical or horizontal venting).

Can this unit be run off of a 100lb tank?
1 Answer
BTU output of this unit is in a low enough range that a 40 pound or greater LP cylinder could be used. Using a 100 pound cylinder would increase available fuel supply and burn times.

Would this be large enough to heat an older mobile home?
1 Answer
As long as the heater is centrally located in the mobile home and your windows and doors are fairly well sealed, this heater would indeed be large enough for your needs.

Smart unit
Looks good in my 4 season room. Very efficient and keeps this room very cozy. Thermostat set at number 2 and holds temperature at 74 degrees. It’s been 20 degrees and the high teens here for several days.
Easy to operate, ordered optional fan with unit. Which help move warm air through out the room. No cold spots in this room!

Reliable and Effective Heater
We bought an RH35 last year to replace a much older one that was failing. And this year, we bought an RH25 for our back porch, again, replacing an ancient one. eFireplaceStore was great to work with and delivery was quick and easy; we are quite pleased.
Easy to install, works well, even without the optional fan.
Not really a 'con', but the sales price is pretty much the same as the regular price elsewhere. That said, eFireplace is a good company to use.

Great little heater but needs engineering
Great heater but needs a fiberglass heat shield in bottom to reflect heat up from base. That thing gets so hot you can't even touch it. Or a set of legs with bolt holes to get it off floor. The base needs a set of holes to secure it.

Hope It Lasts a Long Time
Currently, our home has a large family room that used to serve as the garage before we converted it into an additional room. The problem is that the home heating system is such that it is not possible to keep it heated properly. We decided (After consulting with empire) to purchase a new one to do the job. We are hoping that this new heater not only will be able to accomplish the job but also will be able to last as long as our previous heater did.
