I would highly recommend staying away from any direct fire units. You need something that exhaust the burnt fuel out of the space. The last thing you want to do is burn up all your oxygen and start creating seal in a small space with a patio heater. Go indirect. Always exhaust your burnt fuel...
My background is HVAC. From the pic you posted your flames look like the pressure is low and if the top 2 burners don’t get ignited within a specific time the trial for ignition ends and starts over. There is a very thin groove that supposed to carry the flame from the bottom where the ignitor...
I’m an electrician as well as a G1 Gas fitter. I’ve had this issue before. What I found is that the heat from the current going through the switch as well as the added heat from the carbon on the contacts caused the pads to float away slightly dropping out the power for a split second. All I use...
No. Hydronic is a great way to heat a space but not the way you’re thinking. As above. It could take days to heat. It’s meant to be kept at a specific temp. You will need forced air. It an infrared heat. You’re likely best option is a propane heater or if you have natural gas. One of the MR...
It would be nice to find somebody with one of these battery backup units LM475 so they can tell us what the output voltage is at the male version of that connector. You would have to build a circuit that has no output power until the input power goes away. Similar to an emergency light circuit...
I was currently in the process of building one for this. If you’re making one on your own be careful because a 12 V battery will not work. I believe this requires 36 V into this unit through this plug. When I have the GTO plugged in I can read 36 V off of this plug so I assume that’s what it...
