Carbon monoxide tends to pool close to the floor, your detector needs to be lower in the room. I like the heater, but in a smallish garage space like that I'd lean towards a wick type kerosene heater. No added humidity or noise, and while kerosene isn't smell free either it smells like an airport rather than a sewage treatment plant. ;-)
Thanks for the info. I’ve had very good luck with the heater and CO2. I can typically run it for about 90 minutes without the detector going off. In comparison, when I’ve run the Corvette, the detector will go off in about 5 minutes. lol. Makes sense though. I’ll play around with the placement of the detector and see if I get a different reading when running the heater.
I don’t think burning propane will really put off enough CO to set off a detector. I think the risk using in confined spaces is it will turn all the oxygen into CO2
@@StreetersGarage Yeah if you look at tractor supply I don't remember what brand they are master maybe. But you can read on the side of the box that they either take DeWalt batteries, Makita batteries or Porter table batteries I should have research mine more before I bought because I have like 100 Porter cable batteries. My next one will be one that takes those batteries.
Just found it. That’s a great selling point and flexibility. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/master-propane-forced-air-heater-60-000-btu-mh-60vboa-gfa
Thanks for the safety tips
No problem
Yah , yah , just bought this heater , dude sweet Vette stingray , I'd rather watch a video about it , but seriously really nice ride !
Check out my channel. I just started a LS swap for it.
Your CO detector should be lower to the ground since that specific gas is heavier than air. More so since you may be laying on the ground wrenching.
Thanks for the suggestion!
I think you need to turn off the propane tank first to turn it off, so it burns off the remainder of the propane before shutting the unit off.
Maybe. I’ve never smelled any propane by turning it off.

@Doorsanmore it detects both.
There's some at tractor supply same concept but they take porter cable batteries I'm a Porter cable guy myself also just FYI
I have Porter Cable batteries as well. I didn’t think they fit.

@@StreetersGarage yes that's the one
When you plug in the 120vac does it charge the battery at the same time? Or do you have to use a charger?
You would need to use a charger.
Soooooo close dewalt. milphukee has 70000 btu😅😅
Yep
