    agreed

    I thi k they are ok for a garage or something that has ALOT of make up air, in a tight house? no

    I don't like ventless fireplace log sets either. Open the damper and vent the exhaust gases.

    These are ILLEGAL in some areas

    and should be illegal everywhere. Check with the AHJ in your area to be sure.

    Went to visit a friends grand parents and there was one of the ventless heaters in their sitting room. I smelled it as soon as the door opened. It was installed years ago.I went to the shut off shut it,went to my vehicle got a cap and took the flex line away. They were pissed. We ran a duct from the main system for heat. Grandma is no longer hacking her brains out.-I agree these need to be gone
