If you have the upright 20000 btu model. Yes I used them for many years. A 20k model will heat a 14x20 ft area nicely so you should have no problem in a smaller house.Drafts around the sides and door provide enough ventalation.. Bob.

 
Does anybody know whether I can run a Kerosun heater in a small, otherwise unheated, greenhouse? (8' x 8', vented only by imperfect fit of cover and/or by opening doors or rolling up bottom of sides.) I don't start using it till well into the spring, but we do occasionally get cold temperatures after that, and the Kerosun is what I have around -- I've been dealing with this up to now by schlepping things back into the house for the night, bringing them in just before the temperatures drop too low.
