When you encounter this tripe about a heater that will do 2500 sq ft call the manufacturer
and ask if those 2500 sq ft are in Key West FL or Mooselookmeguntic ME.

Here is a heat calculator that will come a lot closer as to what you need.

Tomatoes are fussy about the fumes from unvented propane heaters, less so with
oil fired but still not good.

Never enter a house that has had either type unvented heater running.
Open the doors and ventilate well before entering.

Either will leave some residue on the fruits, check with your certifier.
Check with yourself to see what they taste like!
